Figured it out (Help|AutoText). Open a new Writer doc and paste the
lorem ipsum passage:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do
eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad
minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip
ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in
voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur
sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt
mollit anim id est laborum.

Then highlight the passage with the mouse and:
- Edit|AutoText
- My AutoText
Create a new AT named lorum ipsum & shortcut key 'Li'. Then just enter:
Li(F3) at the start of the line & lorum ipsum is inserted.
