Man in polyester suit: so what you do is you type any combination of words and it displays the words statistically most likely to come after those words.

Shark Tank judge: Okay... So what is the purpose of your little sentence guesser?

Polyester suit man: It will destroy civilization, obviously.

@deejvalen nice. I read it the first time as “look if you’re trans” because it made sense and would fit the rhyme

@deejvalen move a couple of words around and this is an eleanor rigby

Gargron? That's the buff demon dude you need to hit with a pinball, right?

@pup_hime @deejvalen what else would “godspeed” mean, if it doesn’t mean that each god makes you go faster

It's funny how this (the TRS-80 MC-10) is a "forgotten computer" to most people, but it's actually what I thought people meant by "trs-80" or "trash-80" for a bunch of my life. It was the first computer that I "owned" myself, though it was a hand-me-down and I was very young. I have a lot of fond memories of doing nothing very useful with it.
