Take the first lines of your last ten stories and run each of them through Translation Party until they reach equilibrium, or until the program gives up on you. Post the results.
(Basically the program translates back and forth between English and Japanese until it gets the same result twice in a row. Hilarity, or at least grammatical and semantic weirdness, ensues.)
1. Its passage, gate, lock, gray concrete hiveship BORUTOEKO, live in his gold mine.
(They stumble through the gate, from living hiveship corridors into an echoing vault of gray rock and concrete.)
2. When you turn on the event, John is no longer British Columbia, surprisingly, very probably of the Earth: a big tree canopy Takamori, Riya Kaoru leaves and needles, growing inequality is carpeted.
(In a turn of events that no longer surprised John, the planet looked exactly like British Columbia: big trees soaring to a high forest canopy, rolling ground carpeted with dead leaves and fragrant needles.)
3. Satedan Teyla 10 of her 3-year-old brother - this summer, to form a coalition NARITAKUNAKATTA won.
(Teyla was ten years old when the Satedan Alliance was formed -- the summer that she gained three brothers she did not want.)
4. Mine waste and boom, the king, to work on the case of slaves and prisoners of war, and the damage to spy on the ground of the square, the enemy of the clergy. [did not reach equilibrium]
(Each day at dawn, spies and captives, enemies of the Priest-King, and broken mine-slaves too useless to work were lined up in the Grand Plaza and shot.)
5. He is, Rodney is the first of her emotions in the laboratory.
(The first time Rodney touched her was, of course, in the lab.)
6. The number at the end of the title of nobility. (At one point this was "Is the butt of a few aristocratic peerage." and then "A title of nobility is the butt of a few." ... which sounds oddly like Rodney's situation in the story.)
(Some people are made for knighthood; others have knighthood thrust upon them.)
7. Death and mortality, was killed in this city.
(This city is dying, dying, dead.)
8. John at dusk in winter is to enhance the blue gate. (Well, I can't really disagree there.)
(John stepped through the gate into a blue winter dusk.)
9. In Elizabeth, Teyla Sam, SUTAGEITO her team, and if a problem occurs, please reinforce the wall of the glass office overlooking the sidewalk. (Safety first, you know!)
(Looking down through the glass wall of the office that had been Elizabeth's, Sam saw Teyla walk out of the Stargate without her team, and braced for trouble.)
10. Keller sandals, a rich golden arm Ronon chubby little baby, sunscreen half stripe spectroscopy Kade,. (Ronon chubby little baby. Awww.)
(Kade Keller's chubby arms and legs are Ronon's rich gold, tanning so quickly that his little baby sandals leave paler stripes after just a half-hour in the sun.)

I'd never noticed how many of my stories start with extremely simple sentences, though. They find equilibrium ridiculously easily. *pouts*

Century from now, in the case of women, some new hub torchwood, travel lifts, jacks, big hug sweep BITTOTOSSHU.
Which isn't anything particularly thrilling, but on the way there it passed such gems as "Century from now, women are nothing new" and "Tosh was a little sadness sweep" ... AWWW. :D
(Original sentence: Centuries from now, a woman will stumble out of the Rift into what will be the new Torchwood Three Hub, and Jack will sweep Tosh into a great big hug almost without grief.)
Edited for clarity.

I might actually try this and see what it comes up with. I'm almost scared to look, though. ;)

He spun a strange tale of Jack's involvement in retaking the city from some kind of complicated takeover involving rediscovered Ancients, of all things, and beings McKay called Replicators but described as humanoid.
This kept breaking the tool, but it eventually passed through this (which I quite like):
Like the spin of his involvement in the bizarre story of Jack, retaking the city, a complex contract, re-discovered, including the presence of human McKay Replicators are used.
... on the way to this equilibrium:
Strange, complex contract Replicators MAKKEIJAKKU retaking was used to spin the story of the rediscovery of the city.
