scientists now understand that the frontman, after his first moment of self-reflection, actually succumbed to the "Linkin Effect" and instantaneously imploded in on himself fatally shattering his vertebrae

I suppose though,in the end, it didn't even matter

Tell us how you really feel.

Substitute the name of any band not a punk one and this post works for elph.

I mean he can hate whatever he wants I just find him so predictable, I think the only time he's ever surprised me is when he said he likes Genesis.

Yall remember when their singer died and their fans went on a campaign saying everyone who doesn't love Linkin Park is lying?

I say we pool our collective resources and efforts together to collect all of elph's posts and use it as a training data set to make our own ChatGPT-based Elphbot.

You: "Hey Elphbot, what do you think about Coldplay?"

Elphbot: "Total and utter cringe. You might like them if you're an out of touch soccer mom or find the idea of listening to a neutered and NyQuil-laden Radiohead compelling."

You: "Elphbot, what do you know about the Cramps?"

Elphbot: "I was listening to the Cramps when I was in diapers. Why don't you ask me what I don't know about the Cramps? What I can tell you is your time would be better spent listening to the Ramones. The Ramones were streetwise irreverent apolitical neighborhood weirdos...in other words they were Punks"

This would be a really fun idea for the Discord.

Not that I have a clue, but wouldn't the routine go something like

RUN ELPH IF PUNK GOTO COOL IFNOT GOTO CRAP

Go To's are a big no-no

Trollheart · 02-21-2023, 03:43 PM

Like I said, not a clue. But why are goto's frowned upon?

Essentially, as programs progress in their lifetimes (and I've worked on code older than I am), the more go-to's you have (which are essentially unstructured jumps from one part of the program to another), the more difficult the program becomes to understand, the more difficult it becomes to maintain, and the more time and money needs to be spent to work with and modify them.

You might think you've got it figured out in a program with 15 different Go-To's, but then after promoting to production, you get your ass completely burned.
