"If you're being abducted, slowly pray the Jesus prayer" is my favorite part
Honestly, that whole wall of text sounds almost like a walkthrough for some screwed up roguelike if you look at it with your eyes unfocused in just the right way.

...

Is it wrong that I want to play that roguelike?
Jesus prayer=elbereth

Really, though, I think Forgive Me, the greatest literary masterpiece of our time, is too story based for a roguelike. More of a Western-style RPG or action-adventure game. Possibly a really weird Deus Ex/S.T.A.L.K.E.R. crossover?

Well, judging from your comment, all we need to do is insert Tolkien-Jesus into the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, thus turning him into the perfect stalker.

I doubt that's actually machine generated.

Likely it's "curated" the same way Harry Potter and the Portrait of what Looked Like a Large Pile of Ash: Machine generated, but selected line-by-line in order to keep the generator on a vague path to...this.

No. This is most definitely fake. The Harry Potter thing might have been curated (though I doubt that) but this is completely hand-written. A simple Markov chain or RNN bot can't understand the connection between being old and voting for Trump, for example. (I'm not sure if the movies even mention Trump; dunno, haven't seen them.)

The closest thing Bay12 has to a flamewar is an argument over philosophy that slowly transitioned to an argument about quantum mechanics.

The trick is to only make predictions semi-seriously.  That way, I don't have a 98% failure rate. I have a 98% sarcasm rate.

Also a markov chain wouldn't make references to being in a whale consistently.

Thirdly, Trump and whales are never mentioned in any Saw movie. It's 100% fake.

I wonder what they were planning, trying to make others think they had a bot do it...

He was too shy to market his opus as his own work, so he attributed it to a robot

It seems to me that they're just using it as a vehicle for random comedy.
