Well, there were lots of examples of Engrish here, and i've just found a good example of how "alternative" language - Ruglish - actually sounds...
In Bulgaria muzhiks have bought a new Gazelle for transportation oftomatoes. While drove and further within a month of operation ininterior a certain metal knock which reason to find it was not possiblewas behind distributed - and threw out all from interior, including aspare wheel, jacks, etc., and turned off seats, not found where knocks.As a result have acted competently - one swings the machine, the seconda stethoscope listens to a body. Have found out, that knocks inside ofvertical chest of inflexibility which from within interior is welded ona leaf of a covering. Were not too lazy, cut out a hole by bulgariandrill. Inside of chest on thick fishing-line the huge nut and a note onRussian - "THE GOOD FELLOW HANGS, HAS FOUND" (i'd rather put it like "big fellow, did found").

Thank god for appearance of Good Bulgarian Drill...

I have friend; good friend and student of theses things, named George Spassov. George has quite beautiful wife, but I of course slip away here. George is good Bulgarian guy with Good Bulgarian Toolbox. Drill, Hammer are quite present but slot that holds Patience is empty. I understand this: Bulgarian toolboxes do not come with patience, from factory.

This knocking business is an old story here in the USA as well, giving birth to the sometimes-true concept of "Monday" cars and "Friday" cars. Supposedly you don't want a car built on either of those days for obvious reasons. These days, this is less true because robots don't care which day of the week it is. Many of us have heard and circulated the story of the disgruntled worker who hangs hid lunchtime Coke bottle--empty--inside a quarter panel with a bit of wire, requiring the dealer to partially disassemble the car in order to see what that horrible knock is.
