          Well don’t get to comfortable. You only feel that way because you were programmed too. Just like I was programmed to point this out to you.

        But I’m not a bot, I was here to promote a movie on this new social media platform…

        Wait a minute, that’s exactly what an advertising bot would do!

        … Oh boy.
