Run it through babelfish into another language, then run that translation back into English to see what it ends up like.
Below is my original post, and the re-translated edition.

Original:
The Gamecube is played and loved by simpletons and retards the world over.
Why is this? Can a console really appeal only to the shallow end of the gene pool? There must be, surely some reason why windowlickers love bright games about dragons and big gay pixies, whereas those more evolved prefer games involving stealth and solid snakes.
Of course, this is just my opinion, I could be wrong.
But I am not, this has been proven by dressing several large men in monkey suits and subjecting them to gimp sessions armed only with a hoover and a control pad from the gamecube

Re-translation from English to German and German back into English:
The Gamecube is played and loved through simple tone and delays the world more rueber. Why is this? Can a console really please only the flat end of the gene pool? It must give, surely something reason, why windowlickers bright and large homosexuals of pixies love plays over kites, while that one develops the plays prefers, which include stealth and fixed queues with. This is of course my opinion straight, I could be false. But I am not, this was proven, by klitt some large men in the drop hammer complaints and it to the cord sessions subjected, to be armed only with a Hoover and a control edition of gamecube

So what is wrong with the Xbox?
Well apart from the usual stupid quips, like the controller being less comfortable than sleeping on a bed of nails with an incredibly fat woman on top of you, and the console being heavier than the previously mentioned incredibly fat woman, there's nothing wrong with it. As such.
Unfortunatley the language used to describe the console makes it clear that it's for geeks only. It's got an ethernet port, and that's what they called it, for Christ's sake! Another problem could well be the quality of future games. Yes there's Halo, but man can't survive on meat alone. Will it stay the course? We'll see.
Re-translated: English to Russian and back.
So that not so from Khbokh? Is far from the usual foolish thin/fine observations, similar to the controller, which appears less convenient than idleness in the matrix terminal assembly with the improbably fatty/greasy woman at the apex/vertex you, and the panel, which is heavier than preliminarily mentioned improbably fatty/greasy woman, there is nothing incorrectly with this. Also. Unfortunatley language had a habit to describe panel, it explains, that this - for the degenerates only. this has a port of the network/grid of standard It etyuernet, and this - that that they named/called this, for Christ's benefit! Another problem could be well the quality of future games. Yes there is a Halo, but man cannot survive to one essences. this will remain course? We will see.

He he, its been a while since i heard someone say spastic.
You all continually argue about the Xbox and why it’s so crap, but you cannot provide any reasonable answers.
Why? Because you’re too busy gurning and playing Mario games to realise that adults prefer something more challenging to the intellect and not just spastic level gaming emotions.
No, instead those of us with more than a bum for a face choose to partake of any console we like that appeals to us, without bias or idiot chanting about why it’s too big to life or the fact you have no thumbs means you cant operate the control pad
Big silly monkeys

The it’s are like that the crap, but you what kind of it will be able to provide the answer back which is fit and to peel it referred to the all Xbox which it spreads out why it argues continuously. Why? The adult intellect and challenge silence splitting in the convulsive horizontal gambling emotion which is legitimate and liking the you’re the too much the Mario busy gurning in order for the game which plays to come true. The negation is for the substitution mask unjust Hanbo, more our they we in us, the appeals it likes regarding lifetime or the big it’s too much in fact your thumb average, the light photograph your control pad it is big, e li three operates the monkey and it requests and and it does not do to peel, why the prejudiced idiot who calls a song, the partake of what kind of system it selects without
Reminds me when i translated something through dictionary.com's translator. I did something like:
English-German
German-French
French-English
English-Portugese
Portugese-English.
It's amazing how many time the word 'beaver' changes with different translations.
( P.S) I'm not sure on the portugese spelling.
When she got her result her professor told her that she had 'regressed in the use of her mother tongue'. Heh heh she still passed though!
