Game Time!
So I've seen this around in a few places, and it seemed like incredible fun so I thought I'd have a go. I decided to go with the Angel/Buffy fandom, as it has numerous incredible quotes. So the game is to take a quote, translate it to a foreign language, and then back to English. I used Babel Fish, because others I tried had too many pop-ups.
For the uninitiated, the game works in 4 steps:
1.) Find a quote
2.) Translate to another language
3.) Translate back to English
4.) Post for Public Enjoyment.
I.E.:
Quote: Buffy: Hey. Look at us. We came up with a plan, a good plan.
Translate to Spanish: Anteado: Hey. Mírenos. Subimos con un plan, un buen plan.
Translate to English: Anteado: Hey. Mírenos. We raise with a plan, a good plan.
Laugh. A lot.
Okay, rest are cut because I got carried away. I've posted them here without their original quotes, because I think it's funnier that way! If you think you know the quote, comment! :-D
