The Pitfalls of Google Translate



I sense an explanation here:
Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research Dr. Abd Thiab Al-Ajeeli said that the Ministry concluded an agreement with Germany to import synthesized corpses to medical colleges.

Are you suggesting the gentleman's name might not be "Filled with Cream"?

Now this is embarassing....

We should totally let the computers take over and throw us off their floating city.

Synthesising corpses is bound to be the cheaper option, given the rarity and expensive nature of real ones.

Do android med students dream of electric corpses?

It's Iraq, man. They've got NOTHING there.

I feel like I ought to have an ex-wife comment here.

You know. A good old Ex-Frau Scherz.

In a voice like summer thunder, mad maledictions, unthinkable obscenities and blasphemies were uttered ceaselessly by the giant as he went to and fro.

Ok, look, can somebody get word to that dood that his credibility would be greatly enhanced if he would just consider putting his tighty whities (steady reddies?) on INSIDE of his superhero costume.

I'm impressed by the Iraqi flag, which, rather than tamely waving in the breeze like other flags, zooms in and then fades into nothingness.

Jeez, even the Zombies are concerned about the genetically modified foods. And they know going in it's not going to KILL them.

The little known invasion of Iraq by the cream filled loving Huns in the 13th Century is little known. A few family names are the only clues to this dessert of destiny, this confection of coincidence, this pudding of the past.

Eskimo pies were a great disappointment.
