They come up with some funny sounding garbage
As a speaker of French and German, when I see the result of some online translations involving these languages, it's hard not to laugh
That is all...

My "question" is more of a statement. Take anything an online translator gives you with a ton of salt.

I agree...try this...Write a sentence in English, eg
"I eat too much, I am getting fatter every day."
Translate it into, say, Portuguese...take down the translation. put that translation back in and translate back into English...what do you get??? Certainly not what you put in!
On-line translators are useless.

Online translators are really only good for single words or short phrases. Longer passages tend to get mistranslated.
