Degeneracy

My brother got hold of one of those pages of stupid jokes in French that get sent around occasionally in email. They're mildly funny if you're bored.

Matt ran it through machine translation. If you speak both English and French well, you might find it adds a whole new dimension of absurdity:

- Pourquoi les blondes utilisent-elles du dentifrice pour laver les pulls ?
- Parce qu'on leur a dit que le dentifrice rafraîchit la laine et renforce les mailles.

Becomes:

- Why the blondes use do toothpaste to wash the sweaters?
- Because it was said to them that the toothpaste refreshes wool and reinforces the meshs.
