Suggest alternatives to „insane“ #432
Comments
@Ryuno-Ki Thanks for submitting another issue, especially after I was so slow to respond last time. 😅 I fully support this issue! 1️⃣ Words to add remove: Immediate additions are "bizarre, odd, peculiar, intense, weird" and "intensity, peculiarity, oddness," respectively. Getting a starting list helps other folks chime in with further examples/more nuance. If you're able/willing to submit a PR, I'd be happy to review! |

Are there words you would like to add or remove?
I'm willing to create a PR once those questions are answered.
