One day, I was reading a long page of comments, when I realised that something was completely boring me : the ever repeating and tedious same old “Joe said“, “Tom said” and “Somedude said“. I thought that it would be cool to make things a bit more varying there, and pick a random item from “said”, “wrote”, “replied” and “commented”.

It could have been resolved in a 3 line hack, but the idea grew up a little and ended up into my latest futile plugin : Random Words Plugin for WordPress. Because you know your blog needs entropy.
