(Original forum topic)Take any quote from Homestar Runner and change it in a way that makes it hard to figure out what it is; for example, translate it into another language, or use big words. The other users figure out what the quote is. Once you post the answer, post another hard-to-understand quote. For example... Here's the previous quote, which SRMX12 translated to: ?qmkPi umzPx v,qhg s,dsawglhlwmqhhsfwbmr otjwbgp qmxsz owj hsghqT What does it mean?

I've tried reversing the string of characters and swapping the commas with apostrophes, which seem like vaguely reasonable things to do, but after that I've sort of run out of ideas for how to translate it. Sometime I'll sit down and try giving it a good old-fashioned think-through. You sure gave us a tough one. What does it mean? What does it mean? What does it mean? What does it mean? I'll put it in my thinking machine. Okay, I'll stop making obscure They Might Be Giants references that no one gets.

Sometime I'll sit down and try giving it a good old-fashioned think-through. You sure gave us a tough one. You're on the right track with the reversing. But not the commas. Hint: After you reverse it, notice how there are extra letters after the commas, and before the capital letters. Places where letters usually shouldn't be. Perhaps you could delete a few...

Looking back on it, I may have made this specific part a bit too cryptic. So here's another hint:
T1h2i3s4 5i6s7 8s9o0m1e2 3t4e5x6t7.
