    Do you wanna see a self-propagating cosmic shitpost nucleation site?

    Please observe it, or don’t. But not at once because I’ll have to cognitively engineer another perfect quicksave for the perfectly ideal run.

    Beware this Egg, my dudes. Because there are only scrambled reasons behind these puns. And puns wanna go to war with guns that stun. And I just came baring punmunition. (Not in that way you dirty bastards, that was an accidental variable I swear! (But swearing is a valid response))

    Steadfast is the slow poke… at the non-zero-pun.

      You know that trope where there’s an amalgam big bad of all kinds of crap thrown together with something ironic in the center controlling it all? Someone ought to do Vger but it’s just an inkjet printer and it wants everyone dead because of course it does.

    At that time, people did not yet suspect that their creativity and soul were just patters that could be copied thanks to a stable database and sufficient computing power.

      I mean look at how many people’s brains are leaking out their ears with AI slop going around.

      Well, why do you think birds are singing? Humans are singing for very similar reasons - and let’s just not talk about playing the guitar…

        As someone who plays guitar for the love of the game, I just think it’s neat, guitarists are douchebags, as a general rule.

        It’s like Big Tugg said, not everyone who plays guitar is a douchebag, but every douchebag does own a guitar.

          “for the love of the game”, hahahaha, good one. Sure. We all do… No, seriously, after playing for a couple of decades, music has become my only religion and I am a fucking fanatic. Shut up, infidels! I’m serious. But I was a young, good looking bastard of a guitar player once and I confess, I had the morals of a hungry beagle… I better shut up ‘n’ play my guitar.

            I treat it like orthodox religious prayer, keep it to myself and only practice in the home. Only converse about it with other practitioners, because evangelists are the worst. It’s an addiction more than anything, if you’re doing it right. At this point I need to shred and connect every phrase of the Phrygian in triplets up and down and back and forth just to stave off the shakes and feel normal. And by normal, I mean fuckin’ rad.

    I think it was Matisse who when askes how he could still paint with his arthritic hands replied: “Painting is mostly the work of a very different part of my body.”
