    “If you look here at figure X you can see a selection of the most frequent vocabulary. In figure Y you can see several possibilities of our own design that show the arrangement of the words in figure X into some rather mean and hurtful sentences. Disgraceful. Coincidentally when we sent this paper for peer review both reviewer 1 and reviewer 2 had come to similar conclusions and used a mixture of the words in our paper, the vocabulary database, and some choice additions to say, in similarly mean and hurtful tones, that our work was shit. We can’t work out what it means right now but we’re going to run the reviews through our system for a meta analysis before concluding that the reviewers we’re Lemmygrad users.”
