+### Selectors
+You can select a random item from a selection list and interpolate the value within commands.
+
+The syntax for selectors is:
+
+    %(<list of selections>)[:modifiers]
+
+`<list of selections>` is a list of items separated by a vertical bar.
+
+`[:modifiers]` is an optional list of modifiers, each prefixed with a colon. See [expansion-modifiers](Factoids.md#expansion-modifiers).

+Examples:
+
+    <pragma-> !echo This is a %(neat|cool|awesome) bot.
+       <PBot> This is a cool bot.
+
+    <pragma-> !echo IRC is %(fun|weird|confusing|amazing):pick_unique(2):enumerate
+       <PBot> IRC is weird and fun
