Night owls in an east China city are up in arms after a local bar’s attempt at a publicity stunt went not quite according to plan. Flaunting every rule in the Bible of Politically Correctness, the bar restricted entry by patrons’ physical attributes.
中国东部一座城市的一家酒吧试图进行宣传活动，结果未按计划进行，导致夜猫子们愤怒不已。酒吧炫耀《政治正确圣经》中的每一条规则，根据顾客的身体特征限制进入。
The bar, in Wuxi City of our very own Jiangsu Province, rubbed local citizens the wrong way with signage specifying the restrictions. Some are entirely predictable, others cringeworthy.
这家位于江苏省无锡市的酒吧用标有限制的标牌激怒了当地居民。有些是完全可以预见的，有些则令人畏缩。
The sign, in Chinese with an English translation, begins sensibly enough, saying, “Pornography, gambling and drugs are prohibited, and smoking is prohibited indoors. Minors are not allowed in”.
标语的开头是中文和英文，内容很明智：“严禁色情、赌博、毒品，室内禁止吸烟，未成年人不得入内”。
That’s where the sensibilities end. Next, the sign reads, “Girls over 65 kg are prohibited”. And then the translation gets it wrong; the Chinese version specifies 130 “jin” (斤). One jin equals 0.5 kg but the sign’s English version retains the 130 and instead uses “kg”.
这就是情感的终结。接下来，牌子上写着“65公斤以上的女孩禁止入内”。然后翻译就出错了；中文版规定为130“斤”。一斤等于0.5公斤，但该标志的英文版保留了130，而是用“kg”。
Further down the list, the bar wishes to instruct those wishing to enter; “Do not wear slippers”, together with another reminder; “No laughing gas”.
在列表的下方，酒吧希望指导那些希望进入的人； “请勿穿拖鞋”，以及另一条提醒； “没有笑气”。
Finally on the hostelry’s list of undesirable patrons are those who are bald, while the sign also states, “No big gold chain people are allowed in”.
最后，旅馆的不受欢迎顾客名单上还有那些秃顶的人，而标语上还写着“禁止佩戴大金链子的人进入”。
In response to the public outcry, a spokesperson for the establishment wished to say that the sign at the door was just a joke and a publicity stunt, reports The World Journal.
据《世界日报》报道，为了回应公众的强烈抗议，该机构的一名发言人表示，门口的标牌只是一个笑话和一个宣传噱头。
They also maintained that in reality, the bar had not really prevented any customers from entering based on their physical appearance or other attributes.
他们还坚称，实际上，酒吧并没有真正阻止任何顾客根据外貌或其他特征进入。
But their plan appears to have backfired. Not only have they the ire of the local community with which to deal, the bar has gone completely unnamed by local media, depriving it of the free publicity it was supposedly seeking.
但他们的计划似乎适得其反。他们不仅惹恼了当地社区，而且当地媒体完全没有提及这家酒吧的名字，剥夺了它本应寻求的免费宣传机会。
