Item 191: (UP TO 2 MINUTES) It’s International Lost in Translation Karaoke night & you’re up next! Choose an English-language song and translate it into at least 3 different languages using Google Translate, then back to English (a language with some of the most arbitrary rules and inconsistencies on the planet). Then sing the resulting lyrics. (Example: English -> Russian -> Russian -> Gaelic -> Gaelic -> English. Got it? Good.) Please caption this video with the final English lyrics.— inspired by Rebekah D.

Comment: I was in such a low mood this morning ... and then I built a Waffle House. It turns out that Waffle House building reminds you of how much good there is in the world! It may also have something to do with the amount of sugar I have eaten :). Dawn Bevins - Armoured Guinea Pigs

Item 102: The Girl with the Purl earring. Knit the Purl. Knit the Girl. You know what to do. Post it on social media and tag @GISHBOT. (They know why.)
