Default Player Notes (I know, but please help)

OK, I have about 32 players that have the VP$IP of fish after they've played several hundred hands. I'd like to export some notes on their play. They range from total calling stations to utter maniacs (raising T3s UTG+1).

The problem is, every guy I looked at so far can't play for crap, trying to analyze his hands is impossible, I just post useless notes, example of notes I have on one guy:
[ QUOTE ]
-chases gutshots
-stays in w/ TPSK against heavy action + scarry board
-chases FDOCs against pot bets, check/calls
-overvalues TPGK (can pay off a flush)
-calls ER w/ K9s
-chased SD on 2f/3f board

[/ QUOTE ]

Isn't it just easier to put "doesn't know jack", because these notes combined basically mean he can have any two cards when he's calling me.

A hand I have for him is losing his whole stack with AJ to KQx 2-flush board, turn makes ace-high 3-flush, river pairs, he goes broke to quads.

Should I even bother taking play-notes on such terrible players, or just buddy them as complete and total fish and go from there? I know it helps to find holes in their game to try and exploit, but this guy is clearly absolutely clueless, so there's nothing to even exploit (because he has no strengths I can identify).

Also, I remember there were a lot of threads that mentioned shorthand notations, I tried to do a quick search, but the search jsut returned a crapload of posts. I know some of you guys have this stuff bookmarked, do you mind sharing?

You can shorten this some...here is how these notes would look for me.
"idiot"
"value bet"
"calls pot sized bets on draws"
"won't fold top pair"
"calls raises with suited trash"
