Yesterday, Wayne showed off a creative use of a tag cloud-type java program called Wordle. The concept is awesome – paste in a group of words and see a graphical representation of the frequency of usage of said words.
Wayne had some ideas of ways to use Wordle with regards to himself, and I decided to steal that. Rather than bore you with the details of how I did it, suffice it to say that I dumped my entire blog’s contents – all four years of posts, titles, tags, categories, and comments – into Wordle and received a pretty little picture showing which words I use more than others. Click for a larger version:
I seem to get a subliminal message that there are good people out there and I should make time. And I love Poppy and Britt. And, clearly, I’m not nearly profane, rude, or angry enough. I’ll have to step it up a notch!

Please use “nutsack” on a more consistent basis. That would accomplish two things: I would giggle and I would respect you WAY more.

Maybe it’s telling Britt and Poppy to make time for good people

So “ass” and “bad” are right next to each other and roughly the same size, but “naked” and “nice” are also next to each other and roughly the same size.
Make up your mind, Mr. Wordle!

Wait, you love me? I mean, I know it says “britt made love poppy” but I thought that was your sick and twisted porno mind in action. And now I’m all like awwwwww, you love me!
This totally seems like a comment Sybil would leave you.

Well, isn’t this interesting… it would seem that your wife and I are far, far behind Britt and Poppy… and there are TWO of us!
If I were wife-Amy, you’d have some ‘splainin to do, but since I am just AmyD-Amy… well, it just seems I need some cute envelopes to fill with some sort of toxin. :angel:

Guess I had better step it up with the comments.

Hmmm. I can see this is the next big thing to do. Must go check out Wordle and see how big “Avitable” shows up in my word cloud.

How! I want one.
“Rather than bore you with the details of how I did it” – bore me.

Your blog has shocked me many times, but this, THIS has to be the most shocking thing I have ever seen!
Good people?? Who knew?! ;o)

I bet “Wordle” is one of those things that’s fun to say over and over again when you’re drunk.
Hey, wait a minute, why don’t I see the word “dolphin” anywhere?

Explain the weight of “make”. That’s rather weird.

You obviously haven’t talked enough about me since I see a supreme LACK OF THE WORD WIENER.

Ass bad Britt made me spew coffee!
I gotta try that, even though I bet mine wouldn’t be nearly as interesting….

Why is “penis” so small?

Very, Very Cool!
I don’t see *snake* on there!
And I’m laughing my ass off @Poppy’s comment:
“And bigger than sex! WOOT!”

That’s so cool! And surprisingly very PG rated.

Make time to love good people like Poppy and Britt.
Very cool!

Pretty cool. But Amy D’s right…… Uh oh!…

Maybe it works like one of those ink block pictures psychiatrists use.
When I first looked at it, I saw, “Good people make time, yeah.”
So maybe I need to make time for everyone so I’ll be good. Not sure???

I’m seriously disappointed that sex isn’t much larger. I think you need to post much moer on the subject to make up for it. :sex011:

What I see is
“Britt is Good People.”
Damn straight.
Also? Thank you for not boring me with the details. Now – go to my blog and simply do it for me. K? Thanks. *SMOOCH!*

You definitely need to step it up a notch. This blog needs more pain. More suffering. More self-righteous yet humorous annoyance.

Seriously though – I like the “make time” and “good people” cuz I read it as make time for good people…so important!

Laughing @ Poppy’s comment. That girl is so funny!
I see my name there! That’s exciting! But it says Sybil start TMP school. Hmmm…
I think I am getting subliminal messages through your word art!
And sadly – it’s right! Dammit!
I can’t believe cockslappingmonkeyfucker isn’t on there.

The first 2 words I focused on were Pretty and Poppy. Pretty Poppy….awwww. She is pretty, isn’t she. :batting:

I see a tiny penis in there.

Yep.. you need to raunch it up a few notches. I was shocked to see how small all the naughty words were. :lmao:

I’m really surprised. I would have expected to not only find masturbate in there somewhere, but to see it fairly large as well. The algorithm must be flawed.

What Wayne said. Times ten. Except “BLONDE BLOGGER.” Oh wait….he did that so he’d show up next time, didn’t he? Which means I’d have to actually go through the trouble of typing it that many times. Or I could cut and paste. But I’m too lazy to even do that. So this will have to do. I am rambling. I will go away now.

Oh Adam.
I don’t read your ramblings because I need a subliminal message to spend time with people. I need more temper tantrums!
Now, I will not bore you with stories of my hobbies. I will, however, provide you with a link to something that should send you in the right direction:

That probably took a long time, but it also gave you more information than you expected!

Fuck job and penis are entirely too small.
Get on that. Right away. We’ll be waiting.

Long is quite large whereas penis is not – but these two words go together right? Especially where you are concerned?

I did one and it’s shaped like a penis.

Mocha, if you want to see the nutsack, all you have to do is ask.
BPR, well, isn’t that true in real life?
Amanda, and I’m the good person, right?
BE Earl, apparently, asses are bad, but naked is nice. Duh.
Poppy, you’re huuuuge!
AmyD, I limit how much I talk about my Amy for a reason, fuck you very much.
Stephanie, exactly!
Winter, probably not that large, I’m thinking. Just in your dreams.
Little White Liar, in WordPress, I exported my entire blog contents to an .xml file which I opened in Ultraedit (it’s like a souped up Notepad). Then I did Find and Replaces to get rid of all the code and extraneous shit and voila! I had a multi-thousand page document that had all the text, that I copied and pasted into Wordle.
Penelope, I know. Clearly my blog doesn’t even know me.
Hello, I’m not sure how boobs isn’t a huge one!
Janna, another mystery!
RW, I’ve seen that on a few people’s blogs. It must be a more commonly used word than I realized.
Hallie, I usually say cock instead.
Cissa, I think they’re all pretty interesting.
Golfwidow, it’s a grower not a shower.
Greeneyezz, Poppy is like one of the Beatles!
Lylalou, did you see the large “fucking” there?
Em, well, I wouldn’t call Britt good.
Robin, too bad I don’t have Tourette’s. That would help.
Turnbaby, shhhhh.
Misi, nah, it’s her fault for not commenting enough to show up more.
Student Teacher, or maybe it’s time to make good people, aka have sex.
NYCWD, see above!
Finn, apparently you don’t comment enough!
LadyJaye, who would have thought that I wasn’t posting enough about sex and porn?
Britt, hah! Britt does not equal good people in any world.
Maria, that it is.
Wayne, I should edit that and change it to “Whine”.
Nina, I think “sin” would show up large, too.
Steph, I’ll get my ranting pants on.
Karen, are you PMSing?
Sybil, apparently I haven’t been using my phrase enough.
Dragon, awww.
Bucky, so apparently you were searching for penis, eh?
Mindy, I know. For fuck’s sake!
Poppeyonce, I bet she likes you.
Jeff, there’s a problem in the calculations, clearly.
Shelli, Google you?
Tracy, I hate you.
Hilly, Hilly needs to talk about Hilly in the third person all of the time.
BB, laziness will never get you in my Wordle.
Mari, I’ll see what I can rant about.
TMP, and very interesting information at that.
PP, this is true.
Evil Genius, “fucking” is nice and big, though.
Bec, either that or monstrous.
Bethie, I noticed!

I’m one of those freaky people that finds meaning in meaningless shit. So I think it’s pretty interesting that FUCKING, TIME, and LOVE are all written in the color red. Because I? LOVE ‘FUCKING’ TIME. not just “time in general”, but actual “fucking time”. Who doesn’t love that?

Jewelz, “back” is in red, too, so clearly it’s anal sex time that people love.
