Woke up today. Moved to the left, moved to the right.

Nothing changed, it's just a-Noether day.

This my simple idea can not be published in Nature, so, I publish it here :)
(Also, it can be used for getting military grants and in pseudoscience TV shows)

'Really more of a computer science joke, but anyway,

[Source: https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/language]
I had fun and answered this post with a sentence in my language and let Google translate it into English. The funny result was surprisingly close to the original ("suppose" is wrong, should have been "understood" plus various other mistakes), although of a terrible style and far too few commas:

Oh, if only you knew how little funny this is for me, who is used to speaking in nested sentences with objects placed at the beginning, for which this is more the normal state than the exception, then you presumably suppose that a simple substitution of the parentheses with commas, plus a translation that should be better than this sentence translated by Google Translate, resulted in a common sentence in my language, and how difficult it is for me to translate my English-language sentences into to cut it down in a kind of unnatural way, and to force it into an often too tight corset of a strict order of subject, predicate, and object, that they seem natural to a reader who is able to speak English.

xkcd.com is the place for tech enthusiasts and physicists to laugh. I would put some jokes here, but it would do everyone good to visit.
