While playing with Translation Party... I translated one of my favorite Dorothy Parker quotes, "They sicken of the calm, who knew the storm" in to the very different and amusing phrase "They are the people who know a hole to calm the storm". If you haven't seen this yet, it's a fun toy.

WHAT CHRISTMAS MEANS TO ME, by LT

Christmas means I am finally given a dolphinarium.
I mean, that Christmas is in the final dolphinarium

I do not mean to be a Christmas in the Final Dolphinarium.
