While building a site, I frequently need to add dummy text to test how my site will scale when a user enters a big chunk of text. Instead of constantly heading to http://www.lipsum.com/ to grab some text, copy and paste it into my site and test it out, whenever I create a site, I always create a global variable with a few paragraphs of text. Then all I need to do is enter this into my template…
{lorem}
and I get this…
