Paris Twat-German

I’d like to think I keep my personal political opinions to myself, but I really don’t like Donald Trump.

I really don’t want to make it a political post, but I was told at a young age “be nice, or be honest. Try to be both, but be one”. I don’t think Donald Trump is either. Furthermore, he is not exactly a successful business man – he’d be worth $10 Billion more if he took his money and simply invested in Index Funds in the stock market – so I cannot find really any redeemable qualities to the man. He also cannot take a Stone Cold Stunner:-

But this blog post isn’t about him.

It’s about me. You see, as I mentioned in my launch blog post, I’m following the advice in Matt Mullenweg’s State of the Word and learning JavaScript deeply. JavaScript is the language of Google Chrome Extensions.

In short, I have written a short Chrome Extension that finds any mention of “Donald Trump” and changes it to “Paris Twat-German”, a monniker I think I heard first on Scott’s twitter account. It’s daft. It’s purile. It was written drunkenly. It’s probably not what Matt had in mind when he gave his State of the Word. But I don’t care, I’m learning and it piqued my interest for an evening.

Anyway, I’ve hosted the extension on Github. You can download it here directly. Installation instructions are there, along with ideas on how to extend it. Let me know what you think!
