Electronic Non-Translator
When your translator uses too much poetic license...

The Technion Institute in Israel perfected an electronic translator – a machine that could with blinding speed render the text of any one of twenty-two languages into any one of the others.

The marvelous machine was returned to the laboratory for improvement when this sentence from the New Testament was fed into it:

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.

and this answer, in Russian, popped up:

The vodka agrees, but the meat smells bad.
