VISIBLE GIMMEH QWESTYUN OUTTA INQWISUHTIVE
MAK PARUHNOYD FREEKOWT
GIMMEH ALIVE OUTTA INQWISUHTIVE
IZ ALIVE LEIK RLY?
YARLY
VISIBLE "MAH PARUHNOYD SYZ AND HUDDULZ IN MAH CORNER"
VISIBLE "MAH INQWISUHTIVE FWOWNZ AND PONDURZ THOHTFULLY..."
CAN CATNAP FOR 10S
NOWAI

KTHX
KTHX
VISIBLE "OH WELZ..."

| So what are FREEKOWT and QWESTYUNZ? I'm assuming they're not standard libraries, so what do they contain?
Otherwise, that's hilarious. :D For the less LOL-inclined, here's a pseudo-port (pseudo because I'm not a LOLCODE guru) to C:
void freakout(char* str, int* alive)
{
// ...?
}
int main()
{
char* paranoid = "Frankie";
char* inquisitive = "Bobby";
int alive = 1;
while (1)
{
printf("Hi! What's your name?\n");
freakout(paranoid, &alive);
if (alive)
{
printf("Frankie sits and huddles in the corner.\n");
printf("Bobby frowns and ponders thoughtfully...\n\n");
// Do something to pause for 10 seconds.
}
else
break;
}
printf("Oh well.");
return 42;
}

| Ohh, ok. Found the same thing over at Mudbytes after this then it made sense. Well, sense in terms of what it was (cause the code doesn't make sense :P)
break = gtfo <--- only funny part :) |

| *laughs* Yeah.
I'm curious which dialect/implementation of LOLCODE was used here, actually. |

| I'm not a LOLcode guru either, hehe. I just got bored, saw the post on Mudbytes, and decided to post here. As for the dialect, it's yours truly's. I really don't know LOLcode for the life of me...
As for what those libraries are, what's basically happening is, the inquisitive is harrassing the paranoid, and the paranoid then freaks out, goes berserk, and lashes out at the inquisitive. Eventually, our poor curious Bobby is slain. Alas... He shall truly be mourned. :( | Top |

| So that was really pseudo-LOLCODE, then. Hahah, nice. :)
I figured that's what was happening, but I was curious what was actually in the libraries at a technical level. ;) |

| Technically Lolcode is a real, proper language, and you can (in principle, at least) write real programs in it with enough libraries. But indeed I don't think that snippet would actually function as described given that there is no state changing event to make one of the two "actors" no longer "alive" -- since we're told that they're not in fact standard libraries or anything like that. (In fact, they're assigned to strings.) |
