      I don't know what is a haiku but seems like deeply weeb.

        It’s a type of Japanese poem with 3 lines, the first and last being 5 syllables and the middle line being 7 syllables.

        I don’t really have an opinion on haikus in general, but making shitty haikus to be funny became somewhat of a meme in early 2010s nerd culture. I don’t think it started as a weeb thing, it was just a way to be “quirky” and “epic”.

          The massive amount of shitty reddit bots is ridiculous. I remember there was an image going around where someone was talking about a family member committing suicide or something and a reply was like "I'm sorry for your loss" and it triggered the 'dadbot' to say "Hi sorry for your loss, I'm dad!"

          Feel like with Japanese having a syllablic alphabet, trying to do that in a language with a phonetic alphabet (tell me if these are the wrong terms) is less meaningful or artistic. Agree? Or is that a dumb thought?

            Yeah, haikus don't really make as much sense in English. Also, the syllable restriction isn't the only aspect of a haiku, there are other conventions you're supposed to follow, so none of the bot haikus are "real" haikus anyway.

              Oh? What other kinds of things? If you don't mind explaining.

                Traditional Japanese haiku consist of three phrases that contain a kireji , or "cutting word", 17 on (a type of Japanese phoneme) in a 5, 7, 5 pattern, and a kigo or seasonal reference. Similar poems that do not adhere to these rules are generally classified as senryū .

    He has a hair system, there’s no way he could fix the level of hair loss he had with a simple transplant.

    ...trust me :deeper-sadness:

    oh my god. in the absence of anything better, elon musk is the sole conduit these people have to imagine any kind of change in reality, and they don't even imagine good changes. you've got the ear of one of the richest men on the planet (in this scenario), and you what? you waste it on fucking hair replacement research? just... just the shear amount of fucking awful shit that must be happening in someone's life to drive them to take solace in hair replacement research. or worse, the amount of exploitation being done on their behalf so that the most stressful thing in their life is being ugly and bald. the sociopathy of that...
