OSX Chrome 40 64bit issue: Pasting text copied from anything that support formatting via html will retain font/size from copied text and thus BS font will not being used. Even Cmd+a and removing the text will retain wrong font.

Thanks. I think the contenteditable div was to blame. I changed this to a textarea, should fix that problem.

My invented mission statement made it through unaltered.

"We reinterpret the existing synergistic environment to create an overarching fluidity that will encompass both the paradoxical business lexicon and the mainstream black swansong."

I hope I haven't inadvertently created some new buzzphrasing..

does not work in IE - "@font-face failed OpenType embedding permission check. Permission must be Installable."

This should be fixed now. If you download the font again, it should be installable. (If you could check and let me know I'd be eternally grateful! I don't have a Windows machine nearby.)

I was disappointed it didn't censor "Meticulously hand crafted" or "Made with love in San Francisco". Otherwise, rather lovely.

Same with "Disrupt all the things".

Synergistic wasn't censored in my case (but leverage was)

I'd like the see a version that replaces "the Cloud" with "the internet" and "in the Cloud" with "on the internet." The meaning is 100% unchanged--try it!

Chrome extension that replaces occurrences of 'the cloud' with 'my butt'

Nothing happened for "It's a 5 billion dollar market and we need only 1% of it." I think they should work on incorporating phrases too. Regardless, this is insanely great.

I like your observation, but technically would this fall under bullshit or delusion?

I guess it's a matter of definition. Does bullshit require intentionally trying to bullshit someone, or is it sufficient to speak bullshit even if you actually believe what you are saying?

Please add one exception - "Cloud" should be turned into "Butt", not bullshit. That's what the laws of the Internet say.

Otherwise, amazing work!

All I got it to sensor was 'startup' and 'flow' by pasting in all the titles from HN. So I am pretty proud that I can't come up with such things more naturally :).
