:Well, the Random Words one ''seems'' to have no particular structure beyond being word-utterances, and the EEEEEEEEEEEEEE one doesn't even have much that ''can'' be structuralised (though I'm half expecting it to actually supposed to be a modem 'yowl', it needn't even be that), so I'm willing to bet that this exempts them from any consistent quality of being grammar.

I created a transcript, but used OCR for all the E's because I kept losing count of how many there were. If someone wants to factcheck that, please do. 104.28.215.220 22:45, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
It looks like the bot picked up the April Fool's "feature" as interactive, should we keep it or remove? 104.28.215.220 22:46, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
Factchecked 19 E's counted in the image and 19 E's counted in the transcript. 12.155.149.34 23:00, 6 April 2026 (UTC)
Side note: I have heard people using both alternate niche methods of language structure, kinda like those people who adopt a losing format even after it's clear it has lost. On character who has on occasion dabbled in both is Homer Simpson, BTW. --94.73.49.13
- I still say that Video2000 was the superior home VCR format, in every way...81.179.199.253 23:55, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

I interpreted "words order words random words words random good" differently. I assumed it was missing commas and should be read as "words-order", "words-random" "words-words" "random-good".
Maybe(probably?) not what Randall intended, but if anyone interpreted it the same as me, you're not alone!
