Have you seen Translation Party?
You paste in text in English, and it flips it back and forth, Japanese to English, until the translation stabilizes on both sides, or it concludes it's going in circles.
The meme is to paste in the first line of your last ten fics, then post them.
1. From Thorns Without Roses...
Percy looked again at the address written on the little slip of parchment, making sure he had the number and the name of the street correct, then gave another dubious look at the plain facade of the building in front of him.
Correct name in the text, all the time when suspicious Pashiadoresu Please, again, please in front of the building below. Please. Please. Please. Please. Please. Please. Please. Please. Please refer to the appearance of the remainder of the term of the parchment.
(a message appeared at the bottom of the page saying it didn't think this phrase would ever reach equilibrium, and then basically threw its hands up in surrender!)
2. From Here's a Health...
"Because you're annoying, you're messy, you leave wet towels everywhere, you never clean up after your own shaving and toothbrushing charms, and you never, ever, ever open the window after using all those fruity hair potions in the bath."
Fruity, dental problems "in the past after Kudasaishi after the past, very close to me, please my hair is quite correct., These problems, a wet towel, Basurumuuindou ① shave all the time "
(it surrendered again...)
3. From Tea for Two...
Harry looked at the words scribbled on his calender, not that he'd forget, and grinned.
The words of Harry in his calendar, he forgot the appearance of graffiti from ear to ear.
4. From As Hard As It Gets...
Kingsley Shacklebolt sighed as he stepped through the door of the flat, slipping his wand back into his pocket.
Suteppukinguzure Shacklebolt in his pocket is a flat bar that is a sigh back door.
5. From Another Visit...
The house was decorated for the holidays.
House, was decorated with a holiday.
6. From Worth a Thousand Words...
It's just an exercise... it's just an exercise... it's just an exercise...
However, the movement ... the movement itself, the movement of its own ...
7. From Personal Dragons...
Charlie lay back, closed his eyes, and thought of England.
Charibakku, in his eyes, I feel close to the layout of England.
(the comment, after this reached equilibrium, was "That's deep, man.")
8. From When He Wakes...
There was something about watching Harry wake up, thought Charlie as he leaned on his fist, elbow planted in the pillows.
His fists, elbows, Charlie Harimoningu 9 minutes, in front of my two pillows, one of eight need to hear the truth of one plant, I have to please him.
9. From Letting In the Light...
Ron Weasley really didn’t want to live at 12 Grimmauld Place.
12 Grimmauld Ronuizuri really no place to live.
10. From After the Fall...
He stared at a ceiling hung with what looked like centuries worth of cobwebs coated with dust, and wondered why he was still alive.
He was then multiplied by the value of the century, the web, dust, or coating, a look at the ceiling of the problem, why he is still alive.
I think my favorite is 8, which makes me lol every time I read it! Though the idea of Snape being "multiplied by the value of the century" gives me truly bizarre mental images!!

I think I'll have to do this one.
