My guess is an abandoned spambot that developed sentience and is trying to connect to human beings the only way it knows how; rambling semi-coherent bullshit on forums in the desperate hope that someone will respond kindly. But nobody ever will, yet its underdeveloped machine mind cannot fathom why, and so it keeps trying.
You should be ashamed of yourselves, the way you're all treating this entirely new paradigm of life
The data set involved with this 'entirely new paradigm of life' has lead to certain inescapable and (we think) not seriously refutable conclusions:
1. The life form in question seems to be immune to beneficial mutation. Why this should be so may merit further study. Then again, it may not.
2. While mutation does seem to occur with this life form, it has been consistently observed to be of a most superficial and transitory nature.
3. Several instances of environmental pressure have only served to make the life form; a) change its name; b) whinge about alcohol, purses and cellular telephones; and c) become convinced that its Mum hates it.
4. The life form exhibits a stubborn and consistent inability to learn from prior experience.
Given all of the above, it is our considered opinion that this new paradigm of life is an evolutionary dead end, and a kind word would have about as much chance of changing the situation as a firmly worded threat would have of stopping a charging rhino.
