You can laugh all you want at Engrish.com, but when you break your tibia after charging through Japan’s deep boreal forest, it’s on you if you tell rescuers Anata no sotsugyouseisoudai dakara, tetsudatte kitte itte kudasai kono zubon ni iru atsui ninshin ni. (“As the valedictorian, please be helping with the hot pregnancy in my pants.”)
Honorable Mentions: Krasnaya Polyana, Russia | Le Massif, Quebec

I drank the meat martini once because, well, it was on the menu. The meat fat glaze that topped my drink after two sips almost made me puke. I did finish my beverage - never leave a wounded soldier in battle - but will NEVER order it again.

Ahh, you made me long for the $125/yr midweek pass at Mad River. And for skiing 50+ days, drinking at the Hyde Away (sp?), and going up over the pass on the way back to Burlington. And of course, REAL syrup on the pancakes as one carbs up for a cold day in Vermont.

hahah 200underfoot, that is hilarious about the meat martini. I don't think I would ever order that, but would LOVE to laugh at my friends for doing so and watch as they agonizingly had to finish it!
