British artist writes "shibal" on his artwork due to Google Translate mistake

Artwork of hermit crab by British artist Gareth Davies. The artwork has 씨발 ("shibal" - fuck) written on it.

He explains that he used Google Translate

It turns out that not putting a space between Mr. Crab changes the translation of the word.

1. [+990, -4] He should leave it, that's a great artwork ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+787, -5] I burst into laughter ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+637, -43] Google Translate is really bad. It can't even translate short and simple sentences.

4. [+34, -1] He doesn't know the meaning of the word, he drew the hangul.

5. [+32, -0] So funny how the word translates like that ㅋㅋㅋㅋ That's cute. I want the artwork.

6. [+28, -0] It looks edgy, though? ㅋㅋ

7. [+23, -1] Funny mistake

8. [+21, -0] Unexpected masterpiece

9. [+18, -0] If the translator worked properly and he wrote 'hermit crab' in hangul, the artwork would've looked boring. Because of the translation mistake, the artwork looks amazing ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Korean Youtuber under fire for performing ice bucket challenge on a kitten

Pann: Engineering Student Family's animal abuse

1. [+320, -3] Fuck, his reason is even more stupid.

2. [+319, -3] Ah fuck... You shouldn't even bathe a kitten because kittens can't control their body temperature. He's pouring iced water on that little thing, asshole... Psycho idiots.

3. [+309, -3] "Meow if you want you participate in it"... I know his audience is young but that's too much.

4. [+130, -1] Cats hate water and lowered temperature is very critical for them. Yet he's pouring iced water on the kitten... The size of the ice is quarter of the kitten's head. Is he gonna laugh if someone pours ice that's quarter the size of his head on him? How can some people find this cute?

5. [+125, -2] Sponsoring and donation isn't a trend ㅠㅠ It's not something that should be an entertainment content ㅠ ㅠ He should be donating revenues made from that video or go through the ice bucket challenge himself. I'm sure he adopted the kitten for Youtube contents, too. So disgusting and gross.

6. [+118, -0] This needs to be publicized.

1. [+12078, -431] This was the worst match ever... Is Japan kidding?

2. [+8857, -326] Japan needs to stop with their ball tossing ㅡㅡ

3. [+8610, -409] True color of Japanese revealed ㅋㅋㅋㅋ They're more disgusting than France and Denmark.

4. [+7945, -444] Ugh, Japan is embarrassing Asia, tsk tsk.

5. [+6902, -317] I don't understand Poland, why are they not doing anything with the ball tossing?

6. [+2567, -150] I've never been so un-jealous over a country advancing into Round of 16...

7. [+2438, -126] FIFA needs to take actions to this.

8. [+2054, -80] Did I just watch a soccer match or people jogging ㅋㅋㅋ

9. [+2031, -80] With Japan's play today, their fair play points should be deducted.

10. [+2026, -123] Of course, it's not their skills ㅋㅋ It's all about their luck.

1. [+807, -21] Their ball tossing was annoying in the last 15 minutes. Their advancement is so dirty ㅡㅡ Even Ahn Jung Hwan said this match was a game that ignored the audience.

2. [+768, -21] I'm looking to buy eyes that didn't watch the last 30 minutes of Japan vs. Poland match.

3. [+689, -22] What's with the last minutes? As expected of trashes.

4. [+95, -11] It's 100 times better to have an honored elimination like Korea than having a dirty advancement like Japan.

5. [+94, -6] I agreed with MBC commentary;
Seo Hyung Wook - They did unfair play but they're advancing by fair play points.
Ahn Jung Hwan - As a soccer player, this is very shameful. I wasted my time to prepare to comment on this match. I should've just replayed the match against Germany instead.

6. [+91, -9] If Korea played like that and advanced into the Round of 16, I wouldn't be happy at all.

1. [+663, -29] Beating Germany and getting eliminated is much better than playing like this and advancing into Round of 16.

2. [+602, -8] Ugh, even Bae Sung Jae said the audience in this match should've been compensated with 30% of the ticket price... Their ball tossing was gross.

3. [+560, -16] Shame of Asia.

4. [+61, -0] What's the point of advancing into Round of 16 like this? I'm not envious at all. Whether it'll be Belgium or England, I hope they'll crush Japan.

5. [+57, -0] I've never seen a dirty match like this in World Cup. Is this an elementary school match? Poor Senegal.

Legal social taboos in 34 OECD countries (2015)

Instiz: OECD countries that ban porno and prostitution

- I think today's Korea stands because those things were banned...

- The amount of countries that allows marrying a cousin is surprising... Banning porno is beyond stupid, though.

- Why ban abortion and gay marriage?

- I'm surprised Japan partially allows porno, I thought it'd be fully allowed

- Abortion and gay marriage need to be legal in Korea

- Australia started allowing gay marriage since last year!

- Isn't abortion partially allowed in Korea? I thought rape victims were allowed to get an abortion?

-- For rape victims, they can get an abortion within 24 weeks or pregnancy and they have to provide a legal document that says their pregnancy is from sexual crime.

- Marrying a cousin is legal? How can you develop romantic feelings with a cousin?

5. [+585, -5] The referee tried so hard to make Germany win but Germany just couldn't manage to score goals ㅋㅋㅋㅋ So happy. The referee was the dirtiest one. I feel so happy.

6. [+566, -2] Jo Hyun Woo is seriously amazing.

7. [+535, -6] This match was worth more than the Round of 16. We're #3 in Group F. And today I saw a goalkeeper whose level was beyond Asian.

SM's management went downhill since the time of NCT's debut?

Pann: The point when SM's management started going downhill

1. [+157, -7] I stanned SM for 10 years and quit. SM's future depends on whether they will have a group as big as EXO and SNSD or not. NCT wasn't meant to be the next EXO so they don't count. Unless the new girl group doesn't become big like SNSD, I really think SM wouldn't be safe. They'll suffer the second dark age. For now they're maintaining with current artists but EXO has been around for 7 years, SNSD disbanded, TVXQ is more than 10 years, and SHINee is in their 10th year. They need to wake up because all of the staffs who produced EXO moved to different companies. The current staffs are rookie producers except Min Hee Jin and Yoo Young Jin. That's also why they're not satisfying the old SM stans, either.

2. [+150, -19] SM's management might be terrible but EXO became big without a reality show or any video content, so fans don't get tired or anything. We just want SM to sue for the online rumors. Is there a fandom that begs the company to sue? There's nothing us fans can do about them. And please give us a feedback when there's a problem. From small things to big things, they never give a feedback.

3. [+81, -5] NCT is getting no responses so I thought their songs weren't good and checked their MVs, but their songs and MVs were well-made. It's a pity since they should be popular by now.

4. [+72, -1] Honestly, do you think Kokobop would've done well if it wasn't EXO? How can they think of doing latin music when other boy groups are going for public-friendly songs... They need to stop with experimental stuff and stop relying on the fans.

5. [+61, -1] SM will be hopeless when EXO enlists. They're maintaining their title because of EXO and Red Velvet. They need to debut a new girl group or a boy group that hits daebak.

6. [+8, -4] As an SM boy group fan, it's true that they're promoting NCT a lot. Their variety show had two sunbaes for their comeback ㅋㅋ The problem is that we can see the members that SM promote. I can't even count how many times I saw Mark on TV this year.

7. [+55, -0] Seriously ㅋㅋㅋ Why does SM overlap their artists' comebacks? And how can they not promote on music shows because of the company concert? They couldn't win #1 due to the lack of broadcast points because they had to attend the SM concert!!! They posted a blurred photo of members on the official account and they re-uploaded it without an apology!! SM is feeding their antis. I just feel bad that people still mention agency power regarding to SM artists.

8. [+54, -2] I'll be honest. EXO's results are getting better every time, I don't understand why they're not promoting this. EXO has been around for a long time and they became popular in 2013, so isn't it a big achievement to be maintaining their popularity until now? Why can't they use this fact to promote the group and expand the fandom? It feels like SM just releases EXO's albums and expects the fans to buy them. What kind of company releases a full album in mid-July, repackage in early September, and a winter album in December? Do you know how hard it was with the divided fandom power?

9. [+48, -1] I didn't even know Taeyeon had a comeback... What's going on... Is SM's management absent?

10. [+46, -2] It's like they look fancy on the outside but there's nothing on the inside. 18 members is too much. I heard NCT is an expanding group? This idea is such a big mistake. They should've chosen a number of the members. People can't focus on the group because there are too many members. There are also sub-teams so it's all over the place.

11. [+41, -1] I like all the 18 members but I don't know what they're doing ㅋㅋ There are 9 unofficial members, which makes it 27 members... They're also trying to make a Chinese team but it seems too late for that. Their teasers are not exciting. I feel bad for all of the SM idols, especially f(x)... The f(x) members' requests were all rejected, I heard. Stupid SM.

12. [+40, -45] The only solution for NCT is kicking out problematic and nugu members and re-debuting with major members only. The members are so random and their charms and visuals don't match. They're not from a small company. They debuted under the biggest idol company and it's been a year but the public doesn't even know the members' names. This is a big problem.

Pann: Twice has been copying Girls' Generation

1. [+544, -47] They copied SNSD so many times but why do I feel like Twice's concepts are the same all the time? Is it because their songs and dances are similar?

2. [+493, -56] It's really the same, we should admit that ㅋㅋ It's true that they're inspired from SNSD's concepts.

3. [+352, -60] So funny ㅋㅋ T-roaches always bash SNSD, I wonder what they think of this?

4. [+195, -17] Now that I look at it like this, it really is similar. What's interesting is that SNSD's concepts always looked new but Twice's concepts look similar for some reason...

5. [+180, -12] The one difference is their singing talents.

6. [+135, -9] Outfits, lollipops, items, cheerleader, and many other things overlap, how can you deny that ㅋㅋ Do you really not find them similar?

7. [+131, -11] I can understand having similar concepts but SNSD's quality is much better. SNSD looks more modern and classy.

8. [+107, -17] They're copying SNSD's route. Honestly, they're not too different from SNSD. They became popular by a hit song and now they're gonna refer to everything SNSD did since they want to be a legend like SNSD.

5. [+774, -41] So selfish, they should consider the audience, too.

2. [+108, -2] Dispatch gave up on Kim Jongkook because he was at the gym more than his home ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+77, -2] Celebrities that Dispatch gave up on: Lee Joon, Son Naeun, BTS. Lee Joon - He did nothing except eating kimchi fried rice at Kimbab Heaven. Son Naeun - Repetition of schedule-dorm-schedule-dorm. When she was finally alone in a cafe, other members showed up and ate bingsu together. BTS - It was always the 7 members.

4. [+52, -2] They gave up on some celebrities because it was always work-home-work-home for them ㅋㅋ

5. [+34, -3] Dispatch adores BTS a lot these days. They'll change their attitude completely once they catch some dating news anyways.

8. [+23, -0] Taemin was also followed by some press but they gave up because he was with Kai ㅋㅋㅋ

9. [+22, -2] The only thing Dispatch managed to catch on Kyungsoo was when he finished eating spicy fish soup and fixed his hair at his manager's car ㅋㅋ
