IMPROVEMENTS
hash_sentiment_jockers_rinkernow contains the word 'fuckin'. Additionally,
the word 'fucking' has a milder negative value because this word, though often
used as a negator, is also used as a amplifier. By reducing it's weight it
allows more positive words to have more pull but if no polarized words exist
'fucking' will still keep the typical negative direction of the clause.
