Worst game of Telephone evar.

Oh, yes. Sticky this thread. Now you have my undying resentment, Cujo. :p:

Here we go again. Hours lost.

Let's translate the site itself. Too bad for the 250 character limit. Otherwise it would be awesome to take that whole paragraph at one time.

"Machine translations are useful for getting a general idea about what text written in a foreign language means."
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"Think and write information."

"However, "general idea" isn't exactly accurate; the translator literally translates (word for word) the text which often results in grammatically incorrect, if not completely incoherent, text."
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"This is tough (text), grammar and principles of success, it should be reasonable."

"We've developed Bad Translator! to show just how funny things can get. "
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"Translation errors! Entertainment shows."

"Enter any text in English then click "Translate!" to start. The program translates the text back and forth using Google Translate, then displays the final English translation."
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"Enter the text in English Google in Italy began."

"Chad, the world."

Then there's a movie from my childhood, or at least teenhood. It was funny to watch as they combined Portland, Astoria and someplace in Mexico into one city for that movie...

"Free Willy"

"Philadelphia resources."

There. I feel better.

Oh, and for kicks, here's Lasolimu's welcome. It may never be the same.

"please allow me to offer a very warm* welcome to the slice of the internet we like to call SGT."
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"Congratulations to the camera "by sajini *."

"This website contains threads with quick twists and turns and advise you to not try to hard to keep up with them."
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"There are many places where some of the good advice and Recommendations on the issues again."

During that translation, I particularly liked what the Polish had to say

From this page, very wise advice and suggestions on these matters it will be.

Anyway, on with the rest of the welcome

"Please keep your hands, arms, and safely legs inside the website at all times and enjoy your stay."
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"Security, always keep hands, arms and legs, and put all that remained."

And, of course, the disclaimer*:

"*this instance of warm is more hot** instead of warm **this instance of hot means that you are now literally on fire, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for any inconvenience"
[RIGHT]...54 translations later we get:[/RIGHT]
"* ** ** In this course, the right to forgive in the future the opportunity to worry about."

Hmm.

*There is nothing important to say here, I just wanted to put an asterisk after disclaimer.
