My intuition suggests it might still be faster to start with that question, but someone would have to run the algo against the most common words, or the book he wrote at least.

It can be done, my grandmother had one. I think it can be called a "living will."
The nurses just called it a DNR.
My father has told me many times that if he's ever a vegetable, I'm supposed to "find a way to off him." Like it's too much effort for him to get the fucking DNR, so I better risk murder.

This would be way better served by even some simple algorithms.
Think how much time you would save if you even made just one modification:
The first prompt is: "First half of the alphabet?"

Because most of the world doesn't give a shit. Even people here. Look at this, 6 hours old, 14 comments.
Look what they're upvoting in this sub. They're signaling what's important to them.

Oh, I know that one. The "roommate left his macaroni pot in the kitchen sink for a week while I was on vacation and it festered into a disease featured in stranger things season 2" odor

My sister lived in my house for a while and moved out while leaving me a nice bag of already-rotten potatoes on top of a nice piece of furniture I have--a black walnut "bar" on casters.
That was 18 months ago and the walnut still smells. I've moved it out to the porch until I can sand it down and refinish it.
Rotten potatoes can get me puking with one good whiff.

Super tangential, but can you elaborate on this? I didn't know these things were linked.

That car is tops.
If you didn't know, there's people who do photoshop work to remove things like the creases in this photo. My uncle used to do it, it can be really amazing.
This one's in pretty good shape though, probably not worth.
