Easter egg

if one permutation generates this 8 word sentence, which turns the original question into an affirmative statement:

.tigers + .do + .melt + .like + .butter + .in + .the + .forest

then the browser screen could maybe look like it's crashing, glitching, or collapsing, or just go black with the inverted sentence.
