Wouldn’t have done Chalkie a whole lot of good to read the instructions anyway.
I used to deliver unassembled furniture and most of it was made in either China or Vietnam — and came with instructions that made, “All you base are belong to us.” read like something sensible.
Assembly instructions are becoming all but useless anymore. If written, they are in Engrish; otherwise, they are nothing but pictorial, and not very good at that.
