POLITICALLY CORRECT-ness
Well I think something like this could pick up, anyhow I was thinking if it would be a good idea to create a PC translator, for those who want to translate sentences into its PC equivalent. As fucking stupid as it sounds, I think it can have some funny results.
Think this is something worth going ahead with?
No. :|
I'll come up with a good idea eventually!
*has a fatal attraction to generators XD*
If you do this I will run hardcore punk and gangsta rap lyrics through it and plaster them all over my city.
Yes.
I want to run my nastier rants through them.
If you build it, they will come.
I also liked the idea you had about a random insult generator.
Yeah this one is something that is easily done, mostly what needs to be worked on is just finding the PC equiv to words / sentences. I could probably just use around 16 ~ 20 lines of code.
I'll see if I can find a PC dictionary out there
@Dimo - Oh yeah I forgot about that one! I am flighty with ideas ... that one will take a bit further work for what I had in mind... I wanna pick up some more stuff to do for fun but I took up a new proj recently at work; so I'm hoping when that one starts to cool down I can corrupt the internet further.
(I still want to do Random Weirdness By Mail thing - that one is a bit bigger; hoping by next month I can start properly)

My friend Steve made a random swear generator a few years ago.
Anyone know any good resources?
So far I am using - http://www.funny2.com/dictionary.htm (http://www.funny2.com/dictionary.htm)
Any who,
http://notpublished.ulmb.com/pc/ (http://notpublished.ulmb.com/pc/)
Only looks for the words that have been used in the funny2 list
Just a bug with some words; eg
car wash worker is ment to become vehicle-appearance specialist
but it will come out as
vehicle-appearance physician having concentrated on a particular field of tax shelters
... should I just keep it like that?
Anyhow if nayone has any words pass them over :D
If you can format it as the following
[word] : [description]
*seperate by a colon*
eg
actor : metamorphosing being, possessing great wealth
---
Its easier to update the db if it is in that format, if not I can parse it (if its in bulk)
eta: i've missed ll the sime words i'll get around to them later :)
