Deutsch-Bork!
So I've got an extension installed on Thunderbird (my email client of choice), that translates anything that is moved into the Junk folder into Bork (think Swedish Chef from Muppet Show). Hey, it's Muppets, it's funny, why not? *grin*
Anywho, I got an junk email today that I sorted into the Junk folder, and then my brain caught up with my eyes, noticing that the email was in German. Ooo... German, Bork Bork Bork... This ought to be interesting... Granted, my knowledge of German is pretty much limited to the name-calling wars that I used to have with morganlevine back in the day (zitrone-kopf!), and I probably still have too much blood in the caffeine system, but I still found this funny as h*ll...
Original excerpt:
Bestellen Sie noch heute und vergessen Sie Ihre Enttäuschungen, anhaltende Versagensängste und wiederholte peinliche Situationen

Bestellee Seee-a nuch heoote-a und fergessee Seee-a Ihre-a Inttäuschoongee, unheltende-a Fersegensängste-a und veeederhulte-a peeenliche-a Seetooeshunen
Well, you can definitely tell that I'm as silly as always... (like there was any doubt of that, eh?)
