5 useless but awesome WordPress plugins

I would like to share with you five truly amazing WordPress plugins. These plugins will blow your mind and make your WordPress installation awesome. Even on a monday morning. So forget all those other WordPress plugins and use these! ;)

Comic Sans FTW

The name is self-explanatory. It’s the best plugin to change the font of your theme and admin dashboard to the #1 winning font. Comic Sans.

Rainbowify

Adds a nice little rainbows to your admin bar.

Unicornify

This plugin changes all the Gravatar pictures in to unicorns. Pretty sweet, right?

Unicornify and Rainbowify are made by mister Otto42.

Nyan Press

This is not just a plugin, it symbolizes the hope and enthusiasm of an entire generation summed up in two words sung most famously by Internet Users: Nyan Cat.

When activated your WordPress installation will join the ranks of the initiated. Your dashboard will be overcome with the spirit of great successful sites such as Reddit.

Everybody loves cats!

Hello Dolly

Yes, Hello Dolly is useless but awesome. A WordPress install without Hello Dolly is not a real WordPress install.

This is not just a plugin, it symbolizes the hope and enthusiasm of an entire generation summed up in two words sung most famously by Louis Armstrong: Hello, Dolly. When activated you will randomly see a lyric from Hello, Dolly in the upper right of your admin screen on every page.

The end result is AWESOME!
