On the heels of our hugely successful Overused Metaphor Thesaurus, we are releasing our latest word processing innovation.

Capabable of taking the transcript of any speech, eliminating flowery metaphors and reducing it to a requested grade level, this tool will quickly produce a "stupid dumbfuck" out of a "nattering nabob of negativity"

Once you've worked it out, you can tell me whether I'd like it or not as I'm not sure myself.

It would also come in handy when reading legal documents.

When translated by the tool:

[bristolz], just get me a whole bunch of pizza and Jolt and I'll have it ready by Monday.

Heh.

Do they still make Jolt?
