Do just what the instructions say. Tilt your head 90 degrees clockwise. Either that, or try rotating the picture in MS Paint. Then look for anything that vaguely resembles Roman characters.

How on earth is it offensive that it's written using deformed Chinese characters? The joke really wouldn't work if it used Roman letters tilted sideways.
(Can I say, I'm slightly worried about anyone who couldn't figure it out. Mainly because it had instructions at the bottom. Jees, people, how on earth do you manage to operate complex machinery like a computer, or a door?)

I don't see what the big deal is. I'm chinese. At first sight I couldn't read a damn thing. Until I see the instructions. Then, I'm rolling with laughter.
Literally.

It's not offensive at all,(at least it shouldn't be because the day we can't laugh at things as inocuous as this will be the day that I top myself) - it's just that some people are more sensitive than others. These people should try getting by in England, Scotland and maybe Northern Ireland too. There's so much sarcasm here that some people would never survive.
I deliberately didn't mention the Welsh because they can't take any jokes about themselves either - if they can't take jokes about themselves, then I'm sorry but WHAT ARE THEY FOR!
