What is Weird Text Generator?
Weird text uses some of the most unusual corners of Unicode — combining diacritical marks (U+0300 range) stacked vertically for zalgo effects, turned/rotated letters (U+0250 range) for upside-down text, and various mirror-image characters for backwards writing. Zalgo text specifically exploits the fact that Unicode allows unlimited combining marks to be stacked on a single base character, creating the distinctive "corrupted" glitch appearance. Despite looking broken, the text is perfectly valid Unicode.
