English speaker here who only knows a few German words.

I come across German content a lot on here, and if something catches my eye, I will occasionally run it through Google Translate.

That happened with this comic and I tried to type "Diese Frau wahlt die AfD." but my hands went on autopilot at the end and I ended up typing "After" instead of "AfD". Apparently that changes the meaning of the sentence from "This woman is voting for the AfD." to "This woman chooses the anus."

I just thought that was fantastic and worth sharing, despite the fact that it really didn't change the meaning of the sentence at all.
