What about LOLCODE? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LOLCODE

I suppose, the corpus of the lolcat meme could be harvested as an alternative to Lorem Ipsum.

Actually, such sites would have entertainment value of themselves.

Using LOLSPEAK as an alternative to lorem ipsum would be hilarious. At least, to a subset of people.

Coincidentally, I had created a lorem ipsum generator made from the nonsensical names of tech startups back in 2007. I haven't updated the names in years though, but maybe I should. (Apologies for seeming spammy; that's not my intent at all. Just thought I'd share.)

Wouldn't be hard to tweak that for LOLSPEAK at all.

That is pretty brilliant. As a wise man once said, "Guba simpy bebo, zecco plazes moola gpokr."

That's awesome. I'll have to hang onto that site for my next lorem use :)

Though I don't know if I want to know what this means: "we gonna chung a funky fresh"

You can also do Loorum Eepsoom - paste Lorem Ipsum into a Swedish Chef translator.

Makes me laugh, anyway.
