Summary

Adds a "Marquee Me!" option to the right click menu on any page. Selecting it will wrap the entire page body in <marquee> tags, styling and layout be damned.

Now includes (configurable in options):

True 90's Mode: Pretend you're REALLY in the 90's with a blinking Marquee! Malicious Mode: Remove the context menu item and automatically Marquee the page on load 15% of the time!

THERE IS A KNOWN BUG WHERE ENABLING THEN DISABLING MALICIOUS MODE CAUSES THE CONTEXT MENU BUTTON NOT TO WORK -- this is easy to fix, just disable then re-enable the extension

This is probably the dumbest thing I've ever written, and I once wrote a hash table in C with a hard-coded random hashing algorithm.

It does exactly what it says it does. For all those times you got bored reading a website that didn't scroll horizontally across the screen, you needed this extension.
