I know this one has been done before. Not that I've seen it, but just by merit of how long the resources have been available and the amount of fun that can be had doing it.

Here are the rules to this game.

Find a block of text, not too long. I chose the first paragraph from Yahtzee's blurb.
Go to babelfish.
Translate it to another language, any language will do. I find that the Asian languages translate much more poorly, so I chose Japanese.
Copy your text and translate that back into English.

Presto, instant art!

Yahtzee is born England where the sweet hat has been attached, presently Australia it is the fragment of writer and gamer and that shoulder which it has made be based. When he does not speak to head horn mic very fast, in addition as for him to express us, the game of venture of the freeware which is even excessively important is designed, the column of the back section page is written because of PC Gamer. That private place is www.fullyramblomatic.com.

Might take you a few trys to make something truly horrendous. Give it a try.

Edit: After reading over that horrible bit of dross, I decided to try to retranslate it into proper English once more. Here goes nothing.

Yahtzee was born in England where his sweet hat was attached. Presently Australia has caused him to fragment into a writer and a gamer after he crashed off the shoulder of a road near an army base. When he does not speak into a head horn very fast the back of PC gamer turns into freeware applications. Ohhh, the horror!(Alright, I added that last bit)

Heh, here's Clinton's denile of the Lewinsky thing from English to Chinese to English.

"But I want to the American to say a matter. I want you to listen to me. I said this again: I not with that woman's sexual relationship, Miss Lewinsky. I never tell any person to lie, is not the time; Never. These indictment are false. And I need to go return to work am the American. Thanks."

Not too shabby.

GamePolitics reoprt of Jack Thompson's threat. Funny on its own.

It seems that there will be view thompson's that we we cannot print selected endurances from the trial testimony, but sufficiently that we have lawful obligation to the report against the testimony of all witnesses, including thompson ourselves, which testified on 5 days. That there will be nonsense. First would intend that the right of popravky gP's of the first null and void, then, we was which they do not obtain, that we cause we print, but sufficiently which jack thompson makes. That'.s nonsense. That would mean that GP'.s First Amendment rights are null and void, that we don'.t get to determine what we print, but rather that Jack Thompson does.

Its like Thompson himself made it.

Here is the last bit of the "Ich bin ein Berliner" Speech by JFK
Here is the original: http://www.famousquotes.me.uk/speeches/presidential-speeches/presidential-speech-jfk-berliner.htm

Freedom is division impossible, when 1 person becomes the slave, everything is not free. When everything is free, we this city are connected in that day and in peace, this country of Europe of the promising earth and being possible this as one, when large continent thing, you see first. When that day comes finally, because, as for the west Berlin people it can take the calm satisfaction of the fact that almost it was on front of 20 years. Therefore as for the place perhaps you live, wherever being, free human everyone the citizen, me is pride word "Ich large box ein Berliner" taking Berlin, and as a free person.

So Brawl is basically the best game ever. The end.
Smash-related comics from now on will have secret character spoilers, so if you didn't want to know that Mario's in Brawl you can just take your leave right now. I'm not planning on doing anything Subspace-related, though, so those worried about that can stay.

And when translated to Japanese and back...

So quarrel is the best game basis. Edge. As for Mario of quarrel when you do not think that we would like to know that now it can take your permission exactly in the future therefore there is a spoiler of quality of secret, comically it is related fearfully. I am not planned however Subspace by the fact that it does with anything which is related, so those which are worried about that can are restricted.

ShadeOfRed:

As for Mario of quarrel

This would have been a great game title!

We mark not or fail. We continue to the end. We fight in France, we fight on the seas and the oceans, we fight in the increasing confidence and increasing strength in air, defend we our island, whatever the costs can be. We fight on the beaches, we fight from the landing reason, we fight in catch and in the roads, fight we in the hills; we never hand over.

Families is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream.

Wow, my first Bush joke.

From Wikipedia, Jonesy's biography:

Jonesy is an anthropomorphic mole who happens to be Roman's oldest friend, He's an explosive expert and loves nothing more than a good old-fashioned bomb, as he tends to identify with anything that blows up when messed with. Jonesy's a rather irritable moleman and is short of stature and patience. His homeland was destroyed by King Forge, He cares about nothing and nobody except for Roman and Q; as they're all he has in the world. First and foremost he believes the Lionhearts should look out for themselves and make off with the loot, wherever the loot may be.

And the result:

Jonesy are antropomorfe mole which the oldest friend of Roman happens to be, are he an explosive expert and love nothing more than one good old-fashioned bomb, since he tends himself with no matter what identify which succeeds when omhoog made a mess with. More rather irritable moleman van Jonesy and has been tolerated short of figure and. Its birth country was destroyed king forges, passes on he for nothing and nobody except Roman and q; since they all are he has in the world. Especially he believes Lionhearts from for itself would have look at and gone with the booty to prove, the booty can be.

"Not all who wanders are lost" from english to Japanese and back becomes

"Everything which you wander about and is not is lost" which, from english to chinese to english becomes

"All you stroll and are not lose" english Korean english =

"By you it takes a walk and losing intelligence it is not, all" English russian english=

"From you it assumes jaunt and losing to information not, everything"

i got a better idea for a game. you take a well known text (a poem for example), run a few translations and then the others try to name the original text.
heres an easy example:

for damage the return and the return turn that one of the falcons does not extend more means more that falconer than he is probable? Case of the things of pieces? the means cannot be founded? Simple melted anarquna, posterior part resolves - the world, the tides of the Blut-verdunkelten and whichever part the ceremony of an opening is drowned? The best lack the complete conviction, while it is more its evil that I fascina of intensity, is full. It is - it discovers without a doubt with the hand?

But the game needs that you think and as for me there is no feeling of the thing which is thought!

(English → Japanese → English ... actually, that's worded better than what I started with.)

Or is it not, that question. Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows or weapons to the issue that occupies the sea. The die, to sleep, perhaps to dream

United Abominations - Before

Less than five miles from Ground Zero sits an International hotbed, the United "Abominations" as it were. Created to prevent wars and promote peace, it failed to address the most dangerous threats facing the world.

In a mire of hypocrisy, bribes, kickbacks, and corruption, the UN enables terrorism, and ignores sex crimes by its peacekeepers. The UN is where our so-called allies undermine us, and we pay 22% of their tab to host our enemies here at home.

Ambassadors from dirt-poor countries enjoy luxurious, tax-free Manhattan lifestyles, turning children into sex-slaves and enjoy Diplomatic immunity. It's a complete and utter disgrace, a blot on the face of humanity, and they get away with it.

Poverty in their kitchens
Held hostage by oil-for-food
Yet their own plates are full off the fat of their lands
There's no blood on their hands, right Kojo?
They promised to tell the truth
Without leaving a fingerprint, but
They will lose the UN one way or another
The victim, I fear will be us, sisters and brothers

The UN is right; you can't be any more "un"
Than you are right now, the UN is undone
Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun
The threat is real, the Locust King has come
Donft tell me the truth; I don't like what they've done
Just give me ammo for the United Abominations

A grave and gathering danger
The decision to attack
Based on secret intelligence it'll take years
I fear to undo the failings in Iraq
You may bury the bodies
But you can't bury the crimes only
Fools stand up and really lay down their arms
No, not me, not when Death lasts forever

The UN is right; you can't be any more "un"
Than you are right now, the UN is undone
Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun
The threat is real, the Locust King has come
Donft tell me the truth; I don't like what they've done
Just give me ammo for the United Abominations

"The UN writes resolution after resolution and has become irrelevant through inaction and totalitarian paralysis,"
"Order, Order!!!"
"Ha! There is no such thing as order"
"Larry, it's true, reports confirm today that the United Nations has officially closed its doors forever,"
"Well, I just don't see what all the fuss is, because they don't do anything anyway, do they?"

The UN is right; you can't be any more "un"
Than you are right now, the UN is undone
Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun
The threat is real, the Locust King has come
Donft tell me the truth; I don't like what they've done
Just give me ammo for the United Abominations

NATO invaded Yugoslavia to end ethnic cleansing, there was no UN
The US invaded Afghanistan after 9/11, there was no UN
Saddam Hussein violated 17 UN resolutions; The UN was asked to join the war in Iraq. The US invaded, Ha! there was no UN
Libya bombed a discotheque in Berlin killing Americans, there was no UN
Iran funds any terrorist organization it can, and attacked the US in the seventies, there was no stinking UN
Facing War without end, looking into the future, there was no more UN

United Abominations - After

I'd like to see how many different translations were needed to make a well-known piece of writing totally unrecognisable.

Jonesy is an anthropomorphic mole who happens to be Roman's oldest friend, He's an explosive expert and loves nothing more than a good old-fashioned bomb, as he tends to identify with anything that blows up when messed with. Jonesy's a rather irritable moleman and is short of stature and patience. His homeland was destroyed by King Forge, He cares about nothing and nobody except for Roman and Q; as they're all he has in the world. First and foremost he believes the Lionhearts should look out for themselves and make off with the loot, wherever the loot may be.

And multiple translations later...

Ach, I've tried to get your results, but unfortunately, both pieces of text I have chosen remain, surprisingly, unchanged, even when changed to Korean.

The first paragraph of the Wikipedia article for black holes becomes this:

The black hole anything will pass and event horizon it will fall that it will can escape after and the gravitational field to be like this is endurance of the space where it is powerful. Even the name electromagnetics radiation (for example and the light), the inside will not be visible from with this escape fact and it will make the n. which When above event horizon interaction but in situation, inside the gas the black hole, for example and will be stimulated from the turn star and it will can be detected. The gas drew the bare electric wire elder brother in inside, until the quite high temperature did and ten it emitted vast quantity radiation inside process.

And also, a quick poem. At one point through the multiple translations, I got "Gun hazard responsibility!"
