Fail.

FAIL
~~

A while ago in French class, somebody used Google translate for a project.

"Notebook" became "Portable electronic notebook"

Everybody laughed.

I whispered to my friends, "iPad."

They laughed even more.

The teacher told us a story about Google translate. "Buffalo wings" became "Wings of a buffalo" xD

We almost fell off our seats.
--

Another French class story (I was absent. ( sad ) But, this is still in first person, just to keep it simple.)
~~
We were in class, and facing away from the doorway. Nobody noticed the water creeping in. Moments after the water reached a couple feet into the room, the principal came. "There's kinda a flood..." We looked and saw water almost halfway across the room. Somebody dropped a photo in it. They tried to dry it out, but the teacher said, "Throw it out. You don't know where that water's coming from." It turned out to be from the boy's room. We had to walk through the inter-classroom doors to get to classes. xD.

Helpful Hint
~~
If somebody asks where something is, and you don't know, say, "It flew through the roof, like the rest of logic." Trust me, it works. xD

Discussify. <--(Thanks to Aidan for inventing this.  tongue )

Re: Fail.

lol  This thread is hilarious! In my class, a couple years back, someone googled "Free English- French translator" and clicked an un-common one so they wouldn't get caught. They were doing a report on bunnies, but about half the information was about sharks....

Re: Fail.

Lol, on the buffalo thing, did you know that this is actually a sentence:

Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo!

1st is the city Buffalo used to describe where the buffalo (2nd) are from.
3rd is the verb, which means to rough up or beat up.
The 4th and 5th follow the same as the first two.

Best. Sentence. Ever.

What about "That that that that that saw was stolen."
1st is the pronoun, 2nd is a noun, 3rd is a conjunction 4 and 5 are the same as 1 and 2.
