My Dad (who doesn’t speak any English) and my boyfriend (Caucasian) have been attempting to chat online, with the help of some terrible translation websites. Suddenly, both of them simultaneously IM me.

Boyfriend:
I’m trying to tell your dad that our friend Kelly has mice in her house and joked about borrowing our cat. I think I said it wrong…

Dad: Why is your boyfriend trying to sell me your cat?

So my dad wanted me to edit his essay for him, and this was his email.

Hi girl

Please make corrections for old man. I translated from Chinese.

I have no idea why he called himself fatman
