After 10 translations: "I have a conflict with his face!"
25: "I am faced with paradox!"
54: "Ironikalli, my!" (or "Ironically, my" before the odd Yiddish spelling)

"All hail Vinegar Ra and his priest, the Sig God."
"Yung River God, and I am cold and vinegar"


Well, [censored].

Yung River. Apparently, I rule it.

Eh, too bad it doesn't exist.

EDIT: Oh my. I just did one. This is what happened.

I started out with:

"Sigs for the Sig God! Jokes for the Joke throne!"

Fifty four translations later:

"Thanks ziggi mat! Jangkrik comedy!"

EDIT2: I threw some Shakespeare at this bastard. Here's the results.

"Oh, that this too, too solid flesh would melt, thaw and resolve itself into a dew."

"Oh, you can delete."

Well, it was close in spirit...

This thing is hilarious.

I put in some random gibberish that could be a word, like "Barkalighter," and I got back "Chip."

"Let us space." came back as "Geuneuney region."

I decided to put in random gibberish and the name of an album cover: "Captain fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy, with a paper bag over the electric chair." The result: "Cowboy coach muddy brown paper bag in the energy sector."

EDIT: I think if you give this thing a question, it will give you an answer...

Question: "Why am I so lonely?"

Answer: "I want to go?"

Wow. If this thing were a psychic, I would ask for my damn money back.

I asked: "Where will I find my true love?"

It answered my question with another question: "How to find true love?"

EDIT: That's if you run it through fifty-four times. If you run it through only ten times, well... see for yourself.
