Normally I'm all for supporting modders in their endeavors, and seth177 I hope you're learning more about the process by experimenting this way. But I have to say, you're probably aiming at the wrong crowd with something like... this. As the saying goes, "know your audience." I find it very doubtful anyone on these boards is going to want to replace their tooltips with random nonsense just for the heck of it.

Trying to be constructive, I'd say put whatever knowledge you've gleaned from this stuff to better use, try making a few custom events (can always use more, I'm sure), or a sector questline.
