Do you have a source on the orangutan grader? That sounds like an hilarious read.

Sadly it was a while ago - the closest I could find was a MIT one mentioning essay graders judging by length and connective words allowing for properly structured nonsense to be judged as good writing.

I guess orangutan is a sufficiently long word that replacing most nouns with it would improve your score.
