bot, named after someone's butt, at war with Trump supporters -- and winning

@Assbott, which mostly tweets about professional wrestling and baseball, was created to immediately reply to Trump’s tweets, then respond with nonsense sentences to any user who interacts with it. But many of the presumptive Republican nominee’s fans didn’t recognize it wasn’t a person and continued fighting with it until they finally abandoned the conversation. About 10 users per hour continued tweeting at @Assbott well into Tuesday night.

That’s how @Assbott comes up with sentences

like this:

“He likes to lick em, he likes to ride hogs, bro, you seem v nice.”

That beauty was in response to a Trump user who tweeted, “Why when he has way more likes and retweets than @HillaryClinton? Huge amount of likes in comparison! Ha!” That user, @Kanam78, appeared unaware she was arguing with a robot.

@Assbott has been around since May 2015, but the real fun started when Kirkland added functionality to it that would respond “Delete your account” to every tweet Trump sent out. Hillary Clinton famously tweeted the phrase at Trump after he criticized

President Obama’s endorsement of the presumptive Democratic nominee last week.

Since @Assbott is automated, the entire world sees its reply first, before anyone else’s. @Assbott tweets instantly. So, mere seconds after Trump tweeted a “Thank you to the LGBT community!” on Tuesday, a sea of his fans were trapped in a war of words they could not win with a lifeless clump of code in a computer.

Tuesday afternoon wasn’t the first time this happened with a celebrity.

“Once John Popper from Blues Traveler was arguing with it all night long, which happened within the first six months, I figured anything was possible,” said Forrest.

The best comeback Forrest saw from his robot son on Tuesday afternoon came after someone named Alfredo Perez tweeted back at @Assbott: “Let me correct you: delete your account, Mr. President.”

@Assbott wasted no time, because @Assbott is a robot programmed not to waste time.

“I like bad tweets so I really enjoy your account is bad and your content is shit,” it replied.

“The best ones are where it seems the most sentient,” said Forrest. “It was too perfect. It replies to everything and never shuts up, just like me.”

@In The Name Of awakened us to the Muslims that infiltrated Sherdog because it was the fourth biggest site on the internet, but now I'm positive this is the testing ground for pro-Trump bots in response to Assbot. Definitely @Space and a few others are Trump's assbots.

While I think it's funny I don't think non sensical, word salad replies can be considered winning arguments. Unless they're made by guys posting in the heavies.

Just wait until assbott becomes self aware.

I think we can all agree that anyone who gets into a protracted argument with a nonsense bot is losing... the argument and at life.

That's racist and sexist!

It's a sad testament to what we've become that words strung nonsensically together can be mistaken for the sort of human interaction that's engaged in today.

I'd like to engage you with more nonsense but just typing that post made my head hurt.

You claimed I'm an assbot, so I posted some nonsense.

What, no good?

I welcome our retarded robot overlords.

I think they'll do evolution better than we have.
