The Cursed Sushi of Babel required that whatever player held it  
sushify all messages he posted to the fora. To "sushify" a block of  
text was to mangle it through Altavista's BabelFish translation  
engine, either by translating it into Korean and then translating the  
result back to English, or translating from English to French to  
Spanish to German and back to English. The results were frequently  
hilarious.

The most famous example of sushification is CFJ 218, from which we got   
the phrase "Ass the flag thing in" (which for a while was a legal game   
action, if you could get close enough to the Flag and you had a Can O'   
Whoopass).

The CFJ, submitted by Glotmorf on nday 10 of nweek 3, read:

Does the Administrator qualify as a Public Forum under rule 28, since  
he is "reasonably accessible to all players"? After all, anyone can  
email him. (Note that neither "forum" nor "accessible" is currently  
defined in the rules.) Specifically, is an action considered valid if  
submitted directly to the Administrator, as opposed to submitting it  
to spoon-business? Rule 31 seems to serve as precedent for conducting  
business through the Administrator.

The ruling, from Rob Speer, read:

That the bill is incorrect, I administer justice. Objection  
explanation: Him as being an aerial forum the executive official  
assuredly the declaration summer solstice anh ass the flag thing in  
because, him is not aerial forum.

But, consequently, the executive official as personal forum is spared  
in this rule and that it does not know, it is vivid.

Rob then responded to questions about the meaning of his judgment:

I will attempt the fact that it explains.

Is aerial forum, it spreads out to confront, it hits.

Consequently, the executive official selects an aerial forum in rule  
28. As he being aerial forum did not talk the executive official  
assuredly.

When you see the web page of B Nomic, the aerial forum which is only  
is the spoon enterprise.

It is unfortunate, in the side of equality ratiocination, in me the  
spoon toe lon the spoon toe lon does the grudge multi roster inside  
Great Britain and the forum spoon toe lon is not the forum in the  
public affairs which it does and there is not a possibility of  
talking. It excepts the inside a Korean. I did not prearrange that.

I understand the fact that this message does not do to be clear.
