LOL, reminds me of the press releases I used to send out in about 20 different languages when I worked in Cyprus for the online marketing company I was employed by...

They always finished with ---End--- and the Swedish translation as Slut.

A great book by Ben Elton, called Gridlock, was about a fabled US company who wanted to launch the first US mini to an International market - and their marketing department searched every language except English - and called it the Crappy!
