That'd be fun :)

I spent about 7 hours listener to screen readers today. Let me tell you: it gets really obnoxious. But!

Every once in a while, whilst looking for a 15 second mental break, I typed little sentences and had it read it. I discovered this great joy a few weeks ago while accidentally mousing over some filler text on an HTML document. It said: "blah blah blah, blah blah BLAH!" The seemingly mundane string takes on a comical life when read my an automatedly British fellow. Today, for some reason, I typed "t1 thousand." And it was funny.

I think it'd somewhat comical to do a voiceover with one of these text-to-speech engines. Sure, it's overdone already, but I'd find it momentarily entertaining :)

Hahaha! I like. We can do some old book thats in the public domain and act out the scenes with little dudes :)

Yeah, sounds like fun! Apparently we need scripts and a plan. Or we can just record a ton of dumb and edit it into something :)
