I was searching online for a service manual for our MTD Yard machines 5HP/24" snowblower, as I need to find out how to adjust the auger clutch.  My searches led to the following utterly surreal review on what, by all appearances, is a perfectly normal English-language site reviewing yard equipment:

Say goodbye to thwarting, sweat-inducing draw starts--this thick, highly-maneuverable, single-stage blower is a girth to acquire sledding.  A unsubdivided crowd of a button activates the dependable electric dispatcher.  Equipped with a hale 5 hp instrument, this snow thrower clears sidewalks, driveways, patios and porches in a part of a unit of the clip required to spadeful by deal.  A four-cycle machine substance no mussy mixing of oil color and gaseous state.  The of the hand ride scheme lets you order in what state immobile the machine runs, piece a self-pulling, rubber-edged gimlet lends confirming drawing to facilitate impel the political machine frontwards and allow for a clear course slow.  Clear snow as high-pitched as 11 inches, to a breadth of 21 inches.  This YardMan snow thrower besides comes loaded with serious-minded features.  An auger/clutch verify scheme keeps the agent working hinder the bond is released, eliminating the demand to re-start.  A big palm makes it leisurely to draw the weapon cord--even at the time wearing heavy, of great size bulk mittens.  The replaceable scraper leaf blade is two-sided to threefold its lifespan. A fold palm minimizes vibe, positive saves service department blank at one time warm up endure comes.  Best of totality, the building block arrives fully-assembled electric0 the oil color requisite on this account that operation--so you put up electric1 glade electric2 the narrow it's unpacked.  This outside instrument weighs 80 pounds and is covered by a two-year, modified surety.  — Mary Park

This has been a test of the Surreal Disinformation System.  The mental confusion you are now experiencing is quite normal.  There is no need to adjust your set.

snowblower? I thought snow sucked! I'm glad I live somewhere that rarely gets any snow. And when it does, I'm wise enough to stay in.

"A big palm makes it leisurely to draw the weapon cord--even at the time wearing heavy, of great size bulk mittens."

Yeah, I suppose it would.
