Hebrew translation:חרא של תרגום הופך אותך לתחת!
Explanation:
Well, since this is just for fun, here's a bad translation for you, on the other hand it builds on your ass motif and adds shit to the mix...

Literally: "a shitty translation turns you into an ass!"
Note that this is the anatomical ass and not the zoological one, and the sentence isn't perfect for conveying the original idea, but I think close enough for a laugh...

Hope that helps.
