Google the first word that comes into your head…
bucket
Click a random result (the nearest to the mouse pointer, or whatever)
http://www.buckettruck.nfld.net/
Randomly click links on the page (making sure not to make any decisions whatsoever. Be as random as possible)
Then select some text from the page and paste it into Altavista Babelfish
Convert it into a language of your choice. Convert that back to english.
paste it into your post.
Then tell me what a stupid idea for a thread this was.

Then think of another random word for the next person to google. PUT IT IN SPOILERS! (so as not to subconcisouly suggest the word to them anyway)
put your random word here
It is up to them to choose your word or their own.
Post only the translated text, then make people guess the word. Actually no, just let the thread die.
I’m so in!
