At the risk of making a complete fool of myself, well more than usual anyway. I thought I'd start this off. I find when I'm not getting anywhere useful my mind slips into idiocy mode and comes up with all sorts.
The ones I can remember so far
Leopard leaped in loo
A lion eloped
Dry ships loo ill used
I upheld silly doors
Silly is about the level I've sunk to

Can someone explain this thread to me? What are they supposed to be anagrams of?

If we told you that, we might give something away. 
I think the whole point is that they are anagrams of nothing.

If them being there might give something away they shouldn't be there.

I think all they are giving away is our mental state at the time. No real clues for anyone. Sorry.

They're meaningless
Just daft phrases we've come up with while searching for something else, usually when nothing meaningful has been found and desperation sets in

I still think that they shouldn't be there. People like me who are still floundering through the 26 pages don't want hints as to what comes next.

I don't think these are anything more than humor. Take Walther's anagram for example:
"SCURRA ELIMINATING NEON FROGS"
I think we are just making fun of ourselves here. There are no hints that I can see. If anyone tells me they are HINTS, I for one want to know where they belong! I sure could use some hints right now.
Sorry Walther, this one is priceless!

THESE ARE NOT HINTS, they have no meaning
Merely a bit of fun, laughing at the daft things our minds come up with, just like the bodies buried thread a sense of humour is required.
Love the neon frogs

Yes, I agree that this is only fun - it gives no secrets away to laugh at what are hopelessly wrong possibilities for anagrams which might crop up. There is also already another thread somewhere for other bloops along the way.
I am still quite proud of:
"Clear dirt as best road to central square."

I like that Wulfruna. I need to clear some dirt! A lot of it! But My thought is the dirt is what will lead me to the greater mystery, not the center square. Or is the center square the Greater Mystery?
