The words were randomly generated at the beginning of the year, and copied into an excel spreadsheet. I change any that are mundane by using a different word generator. LOL Most of the twists are from my twisted brain, but a few are from the editors. ;) Also, the twists go into the graphic first, (I do them for an entire week) then the words go into them randomly. In other words, I don't pick words expressly for a twist. ;)
