Text to Speech software - Dec 15, 2008 03:19
I'm playing around with some freeware.  I've tried TTSReader and will soon try this one.

This is fucking hilarious.  The last time I had this much fun with something so simple was with Lego's.  From now on I'm not reading anything you guys type.  I'm going to copy paste it into the clipboard and listen.  Some of you guys are brilliant. 

If I wasn't so lazy I would use a different voice for each of you and record an entire thread, and put it in MP3 form.  LOL

Try this sample with a text to speech reader and tell me you didn't laugh your ass off.

Was this prompted by your Big Bizang Stephen Hawking rap video you posted in the music thread Agent?

Text to speech is something that has been rattling in my brain for a while, the Hawking rap is what broke the camels back.  Sometimes I'm so easilly amused.

It's like making microsoft SAM shout obscenities in a hushed computer lab. Nobody wants to admit it's funny... but everybody wants to.

Ah, yes. I believe the quote I saw with it was "Ricky Martin participates in his "manly, hetero, beach activities". Of course, that was sarcasm.
