Something that makes my NaNo efforts look a lot better

[ghost2]

I would like to know why someone has twice added the following garbled information to the profile of Arcangues, racehorse, at Wikipedia:

However, the product piece did not run very much, and it was a sad ending called the slaughter house forwarding that waited for a horse. It is a thing since Ferdinand to have become the slaughter house forwarding at a Breeders' Cup Classic championship horse.

The English language can become a very ugly thing in the hands of the wrong people.

Ugh! *shudders*

Even sadder, the text in question was deleted for being ungrammatical (and possibly incorrect, in part), and the person who initially posted it then came back and REPOSTED the thing. :(

Didnae understand a bleedin' word...and I'm gonna assume that's not just coz I'm more of a dog person :p

Yep, the grammar is the main issue here. The author meant to say something like this:

However, his offspring did not run well, and eventually Arcangues was sent to a slaughterhouse. He (after Ferdinand) is the second Breeders' Cup Classic winner to die in such a manner.

Doesn't bear too much resemblance to the original passage, does it?

Either way, it sucks for the horse.

Can we say that the person said the same thing twice without really saying anything at all...helpful? :P

I think that is a very fair assessment.
