Ever since my little kitty died / I have been locked in the chamber / of sadness and melancholy

I was reading some (May I take your order?) [1] pages (back to the Enlisgn) [2] of Engrish [3] (and being highly amused—the title up there comes from a billboard for the Backstree Boys [4]) when I had an odd thought: are there webpages in Taiwan or China or Japan mocking our use of their language [5]? I'm just curious.
