Or rather "pulling the translators' legs"

It's been quite a long time since we had a Swedish translation. I was part of an earlier translation effort, and I used to do software translation professionally, so I thought it was time to give it a go.

There are a lot of translation strings that I don't recognize, but I really had to scratch my head when I found this one:

Extreme drug use, a large variety of sex, lots of violence, a particularly disturbing scene invoving an anaconda, as well as some mild language.

Really, Ken?

Looks like a rating description got into the master translation file.

So, when I translate it, should I misspell the translation as well...?
