Word list enthusiasts will quickly determine that phraser ripped of was inspired by Nutrimatic, which uses a similarly-but-differently generated list to swiftly find, say, anagrams for YESDIPLOMAS. Why not tweak Nutrimatic to do what I want? Well, I couldn't get it to build. (I did before! I think maybe a library non-backwards-compatibly updated since then? I didn't really try to hard to figure out what was going on because…) And I wanted an excuse to practice programming in Go. So, rather than hurt my brain figuring out how to get Nutrimatic building, I wrote a new program in Go.
So, anyhow, a program. And a big list of words. And a list of phrases which I should probably download onto my puzzling laptop sometime between now and the next MIT Mystery Hunt.
