Personally, I like the faux-English one better, just because it's so bad.

I can't craft a suitably mangled response, but I understood all of it, and had a good chuckle. (Actually, I laughed through the whole thing as I puzzled out the meaning, and Mom asked, "What's so funny?" so I read it to her.) Nicely done.
