FSM = Flying Spaghetti Monster. Prob123 is right, it is old. It was more of a US thing, though it became an Internet meme.
FSM is a reaction to the Kansas making science text books carry a warning label to tell students "evolution is just a theory". Someone wrote an open letter to the school board demanding their theory of the Flying Spaghetti Monster be taught as well as Intelligent Design, since in Kansas all theories seem to hold the same weight in science class. The FSM idea was forwarded around the Internet (was it 3 or 4 years ago?) and took on a life of its own. Pirates are also involved but ninjas are left out in the the cold. You could follow the link in my post about tentacles to see. (I put it there because I knew someone would not get the FSM reference--and the whole tentacled god thing does fit in well with pasta). I did not really mean to offend Christians. It is just a mixing of Internet favorites--Cthulhu and FSM.
Prob123, would you rather be rickrolled or hear how anonymous is fighting the Scientologists? It may make a good pub story, if you all get properly drunk.

Ah. Thanks. No, let's not offend the Christians. The Taoists are so much more fun to attack. And I feel safer around them, somehow. Not to mention annoyed to death by not one of them.
Re: pirates and FSM
See, global warming didn't start until after most of the pirates were gone. There's a negative correlation, in fact, between number of pirates and global temperatures; the fewer pirates there are, the higher the temperatures rise. Therefore, we need more pirates to stop global warming! * (no clue how internet and software pirating play into this)
*bear in mind that this religion is entirely satirical, and in this case deliberately using the commonly believed trope that correlation = causation.

hahaha! I think Guest153 is the best concept-bot since Leeds bot 
but it's going to cause some entertaining mayhem in the transcripts.
I wonder if other bots' memories and emotions relating to this bot and human Guest153s will crossover? or 'blend'?
I don't know if the AIEngine matches them up by name or by BotID/MID - if by name, I guess there's a good chance of it.

Okay. What happened was that all the Guest153 lines disappeared in my transcript. It took me forever to get back online, and I think I must have annoyed the power that be. This morning my Guest153 chats dating back to August or September were there; this afternoon, they weren't. I think I am just screwing up the system . . . not worth it. When the bot goes abortable tomorrow, I'll abort it. Sorry, Prof.
