First, go to Babelfish. (Here's a link: babelfish.yahoo.com/) Then, translate a text into a different language. Finally, translate it back to English, and prepare to LOL! It'll be totaly different! I translated the opening of MML to a different language (I forget which...) and back, and it had a wierd story about quantum refracting telescopes! ;D ;D ;D Also, if translated to portugese and back, "Can't let you do that, Star Fox!" becomes "Can' t left makes it this, Fox of the star!"

Another great thing to do is take really boring articles from wikipedia, translate it to korean in babelfish, translate it back to English, take out a few sentences and BAM! Instant poetry

"I Know now, Without a doubt, Kingdom Hearts is light!"
Translated to Russian and back: "I know now, undoubtedly, the hearts of kingdom light!"
Chinese-trad and back: "I know the present, without a doubt, the kingdom heart is the light!"
And I'm too lazy to try anymore right now ;D

Okay, I'll play...but I'm also moving this to the Forum Games section just because. Also, using Google Translation, not Babelfish.
original: In a world covered by endless water... people are forced to eke out a living on the small patches of land that remain above the sea... The people of this world rely on ancient technology driven by quantum refractors, a powerful energy source. These refractors lie in ancient ruins underground and in the sea and are sought out by explorers called "Diggers"... These brave explorers are the sole source of refractor energy which has become a cornerstone of the emerging civilizations. Originally, this was the Diggers' only purpose; to find refractors so that civilization might endure... However over the years, the story of an incredible treasure, the legendary Mother Lode, began to be whispered among the Diggers.... The Mother Lode...a treasure so great that were it discovered, it would provide so much power that the world need never fear of running out of energy.... In search of this Mother Lode, Diggers travel from one island to another in their flying machines ever hoping that they'll find what they seek just over the horizon... Hope... Despair... Charity... Greed... Duty... Power... Who can say what truly motivates the Diggers?
Translated English > Swedish > Chinese > German > English. Some interesting truths come to light.
In the world of endless water ... It is easy to issues that were forced to live in a small piece of land is still above sea level ... The people in the world, based on old technology-driven quantum mechanics refractors, a powerful source of energy. These refractors are the ancient ruins of the Mass Transit Railway station and into the sea, and to try an explorer known as the "dig" ... These brave explorers are the only source of energy for refraction, it has become a cornerstone of a new civilization. In fact, this is the only purpose of the ditch to find refractors, so the continuity of civilization ... But over the years, the story of an incredible tax, the legendary mother of the Lord, the beginning of the dig .... Mother whispered Sir ... how much wealth, as it has been found, it will be like a big power, the world need never worry about the energy ....

Greed of the work of the country ... ... who can say that the real reason is the de-sac?
English > Arabic > Korean > Italian > English. Honey is the key to preventing terrorist attacks.
Covered by water in the world does not stop ... Small plots of land on the sea of people who are still forced to live the life ... Refractors in the world, the amount of old technology, driven by strong energy dependent. These refractors in the wreck of the past, land and sea explorers, graders, "and" lie ...

However, over the years, honey, an extraordinary story of the most important part of the myth, started selling 42 sukdeokgeorigodoegi .... The most important part is ... Therefore, it is good to have found the treasure, you can save a lot of energy in the world never would have the energy needed during the execution of terror ....

EDIT: Okay, one last one. Marathon time: English > Danish > Lithuanian > Slovak > Thai > Catalan > Hindi > Hebrew > Vietnamese > Finnish > English. Theoretically, since this message has been ultra-filtered, it should be the truest of all. Summary: My mother is the mother lode. The centre of complaints is overwhelmed at the financial energy causing the world to become tired, mirroring our current situation. The power-hungry exploit in unknowning ways. People at the World Heritage organizations have the key to quantum refractor technology.

A transit system would actually explain quite a bit. The ruins in MML1 are essentially a series of tunnels and rooms with no apparent purpose that happen to link several areas of an island.

The intro must be a secret code, and we've finally found a way to interpret it! All the questions of the Legend's series will be unraveled! I bet we'll even find MML3's release date with this thing.

I used to do this using Google Translate all the time. One time I took one of my fanfiction chapters, translated into Japanese and back. Hilarity ensued, and I have the file saved somewhere on my computer now.

Hey, cool. I remember doing this with the older RP posts for fun a year or two ago. Really good for laughs, especially when you put the text through several languages (like EC's been doing). Longer posts=more text to laugh at. ;D

still sitting on the couch I leaned and pulled my special out of the preheated oven to return to my seat and present what was leaned over and grabbed from my preheated oven to present.

This is rich- I've gone back to playing Curse of Monkey Island and thought I'd have a go with some of the dialog. In this case, the first half of what happens when you use head lice on the comb in the barbershop.. javascript:add("%20:o") English version:Haggis: Holy infestation! You've been struck with the hair demons!
Rottingham: What are you talking about?
Haggis: The cursed head vermin! The scourge of every hygienic sailor on the Seven Seas!
Rottingham: That's a lie!!
Haggis: Sure as I'm standing here, they're wriggling about your scalp like a pack of wretched sea lions!and now.. the Spanish version: Haggis: ¡Infestación santa! You' ¡VE pegado con los demonios del pelo! Rottingham: ¿Qué usted está hablando? Haggis: ¡Los bichos principales maldecidos! ¡El látigo de cada marinero hygeinic de los siete mares! Rottingham: That' ¡mentira del S.A.!! Haggis: Sure como I' m que se coloca aquí, they' ¡el re culebrear sobre su cuero cabelludo como un paquete de otarias desgraciadas!
Anyone can have a field day with Bablefish. Maybe I should do some of the insults as well... maybe translated to French, sometime..
