Whoops. I got into this thing again. I don't have time for this. Today's theme is Shakespeare. Bunch of nonsense ahead. If you don't have time, just skip this thread. I'll understand

I think we may be on to something here, so...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

...35 translations later, Bing gives us:

So in 245 translations (or more accurately, 210 translations), we are able to reduce Shakespeare to something an automated translator can understand. I dunno; it doesn't look to me like all that much was lost.*
Well, that's all for today. Time to get back to work. Anyone need an insurance policy, house, or travel arrangements?

I chose a different literary masterpiece -- quotes from Animal House:
Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no! And it ain't over now. Because when the going gets tough... The tough get going! Who's with me? Let's go!

The animal house quotes are the BEST....I now have a great need to find that movie..hopefully on Netflix....hmmmmm....
Thanks for the laugh...so needed.
Oh, btw, here is a possible funny....I was working with another CM dealing with a messy guest situation. Anyway, the projection on the castle comes on and for the seemingly millionth time "let it go" plays...VERY VERY loudly. I looked at the other CM, "Just "let It GO"!" He repeated it nodding and smiling that knowing smile.
I have a feeling that just might catch on like "I'm having a Disney Day!" LOL Time will tell.

So apparently in Indonesia, they have no concept of what the rest of them said the previous translator said mapo originally said. If you didn't follow that, don't worry. Most sane people can't.
So congratulations to mapo for breaking the translator!
