Why write anything when you can get it generated for free? A collection of random text generators:
They fight crime! The perfect set-up for your latest noir novel or screenplay. Don’t like it? Just click “try again.”
Microfiction Assignments: Quick! Follow the directions to create a masterpiece… all the plot points are present. (Thanks to nate).
These five text generators were collected by the guy over at Communications from Elsewhere.
Brag Generator: Perfect for your pre-drag-race speech.
Teenage Poetry: The tears, the roses, the staring at cloudy horizons.
Postmodern English Criticism. This one generates a whole nonsense paper with footnotes. My coworker sent around an excerpt of this ,side-by-side with an excerpt from Stanley Fish, and most of us couldn’t tell which one was which.
Time Cube. Why read the rants on the real crazy-guy-time-cube page when you can randomly generate a similar excerpt here? You don’t get the big red letters, but the rest is there.
Band Names. It gives you a choice of several, but you can always refresh to get new options.

Do not be alarmed. The robots will be writing your blog for you pretty soon.

Awesome, Erin! I was looking for a generator for blog comments, but couldn’t find one good enough.

Nate, I’m counting the days until the robot blog becomes part of Microsoft Office Suite.
