recommended: Nikola Tesla and Wolverine - best line: "Basically, Wolverine is what you would get if you combined a hockey enforcer, a rabid animal, and a wood chipper."

"post" nuclear anything is fucking boring after it's been done already a billion times . . . and do we really need to see, hear, be reminded that we could die horribly after our skin is half melted off our bones and mutants are running around eating anything to survive?  but i guess since it will have bleepidy bloop music from trent, it will be ok.

There's a post going around about how to turn Google translate into a beatbox. The one that's going around has a formula to add. After playing around with it a bit, I figured out how it worked and made my own.

 - First off, go to Google translate.
 - Set it to translate from German to German.
   (Once you figure out how this works, you could use any combination but German has that natural machine sound.)
 - Add the code below.
 - Click the listen button.
