Bug Description
The changing spinner words are distracting and frankly unprofessional. I understand some of your users may be unfamiliar wth programming and changing the words and using cute words may reassure them that the application is working. I am a professional and would prefer a single term instead of changing terms. I find the changing terms distracting they keep forcing me to read them when I might be thinking about something further down the line. Please give users options to ddisable this and replace it with something more consistent an dprofessiona;l
