Pilfered Peaches Are Perfection!
This is just to note
I took some stuff from twitter’s JustToSayBot
Years ago, and always felt guilty
because a bot stealing from a bot
will usher in AIPocalypse!
blah blah
sorry, whatevs
UGH!
MakingLight back for more!
HEY! The embed doesn’t work right, good thing Elon fired all those programmers!
Anyway the poems found were this one
This is just to say
Someone has eaten the
Chocolate Dipped Strawberries
I has left in the icebox at work
I was saving them for this evening
to eat before my class
They left the empty box in the fridge
and didn’t even leave a poem
that was so cold
And a quote from the book Gail Carson Levine’s Forgive Me, I Meant to Do It: False Apology Poems.
Which has a missing image, what the hell Amazon!! Damn, if this is how they treat Gail Carson Levine what hope does the poor books of Illuminati Ganga have!?
anyway the poem quoted
This Is Just to Say
Instead of the beginning
I slipped
this introduction
in herewhere
my editor excruciatingly loudly
screeched
it does not belongForgive me
I also shredded
her red pencil and stirred
the splinters into her teaI hope you enjoy!
Which, as much as I hate these ongoing parodies of the same dull poem forever — I have to admit this is far better than most I’ve seen. And I’ve seen so, so many.
EduBlogs didn’t care to preserve the fruit
Below we see another tragedy of the early internet, the site that the fruit was stolen from is no more —
Or rather the site is still, but the individual content under it of some delicious poetic parodies has been devoured by the ravages of time,
And nobody did anything to save it. Thanks Time.
Metafilter also gets in on the fruit stealing
with their own little bot that picks the fruit so the humans don’t have to get their mitts dirty.
Fruit stealer in charge cortex had the following to say:
In this case, what’s under the hood is really, really simple — I’m not doing any clever algorithmic language generation, I’m just sticking random words into slots in a template from a set of word lists I put together
I guess that makes it all ok, and it made it all ok for me to make the following visualization of the stolen fruit.
This is just to list all the previous entries from that Scoundrel that steals fruit, and apologizes insincerely
Remember, sometimes when the Scoundrel is out there stealing stuff he likes a few tunes to keep the mood, so here, courtesy of the Illuminati Ganga Hitmagist — the Playlist for this outing of our Scoundrel
