Now all you have to do is feed it to a travesty generator, and you can have your very own PG bot.

Sample output:

This is the least useful time to have done that would lead to horrible bugs. But I don't think boundp exists either. So far I haven't needed it. readall keeps calling read till it runs out of input, and returns itself. This turns out to be quite handy. is is just CL eq (or rather eql) Unset variables are not null; that would not be hard, but their valuations are not null; that would not be hard, but their valuations are not null; that would not be hard, but their valuations are not null; that would have reacted so angrily if I'd said Microsoft was dead in 1995. They would have been ambivalent about it. Why pre-announce it? To prevent people from using competitors. MSFT used to be called progn. (It's surprising how much better that little change makes...



That 'valuations are not null' loop is pretty trippy. Fed through Apple's Text-To-Speech engine, we have some grade A techno mixing fodder...


Where did you get that generator? I want one!


I just fed it into the first Google result for "travesty generator":

(I only fed in part of the PG text, though, as the generator takes longer the more text you feed in... probably melting this poor guy's web server.)

You can find code for other generators online, like jwz's:
