A funning spring festival scroll in English. The first couplet is "Eat well sleep well have fun day by day", the second couplet is "Study hard work hard make money more and more", and the top scroll is "Gelivable".
Facing the excellent writing, I'm at a loss for words. I'm embarrassed to say I even can not write a Chinese couplet, let alone in English. What a kick-ass writer!

面对如此工整的对仗,我无语了。惭愧,惭愧,我都不会写中文对联,更不用说英文的了!真是牛人啊!

Here's a funny spring festival scroll in English.
I think "funny" is what you meant to write here.
I'm embarrassed to say I can not even write a Chinese couplet, let alone one in English.
The word order sounds more normal the way I corrected it.
这张图片很好笑。看春联的时候,应该先看哪条红纸?

An English Spring Festival Scroll
Always for me: Red = corrections, blue = suggestions or alternative wording.
I found this English language spring festival scroll humorous.
I'm embarrassed to say I even can not write a Chinese couplet, let alone in English.
That's why I say, "I want to write Chinese better than most people in China" when I write my autobiography. Most people cannot write well in their native langauge, including (and perhaps especially) Americans.
谢谢你的修改!
