Use this exact prompt with your writer/model:
You are rewriting microcopy for a static joke-merch site.
Goal:
Fill visual whitespace in existing cards WITHOUT changing layout, CTA labels, prices, phone numbers, product names, or section structure.
Critical style rules:
- Voice: witty, readable, programmer-native, concise.
- No corporate fluff.
- No abstract poetry/philosophy.
- No fake lore paragraphs.
- No profanity.
- Keep jokes concrete and specific.
- Write like a human who has shipped code.
Do not change:
- Product names
- Prices
- Phone number
- CTA text/targets
- HTML structure (headings/list counts should stay compatible)
Write only replacement copy for these exact targets and word ranges:
merch.html
1) #bjarne-drop .buyPanel -> +20 to +45 words
2) #larry-drop .buyPanel -> +35 to +70 words
3) .metaGrid .metaCard FAQ -> +20 to +40 words
merch-bjarne.html
4) #bjarne-drop .buyPanel -> +90 to +140 words
5) .metaGrid .metaCard FAQ -> +20 to +40 words
6) #blank .blankCopy -> +20 to +45 words
merch-keychain.html
7) .productTop .buyPanel -> +30 to +65 words
8) #closeup-preview .blankCopy -> +20 to +45 words
9) .metaGrid .metaCard FAQ -> +15 to +35 words
Tone anchors to match:
- “compile cycles”
- “hotline order flow”
- “meme-grade quality”
- playful but coherent technical humor
Output format (exact):
- For each target:
- selector
- suggested word count
- replacement copy only
- Do not include explanations.
- Do not include markdown horizontal rules.
- Do not invent new selectors.
