@kentenmakto @dusoft @pikesley that's the point with AI, you are not supposed to ask. Its forced on you even when you have no need for it.

@NovaNaturalist @kentenmakto @dusoft @pikesley Well there is no need here for the passive voice. It is not forced on. Someone forced it and that someone has a name (or at least a handle). In other cases CEOs or programmers force it on us.

Which is rude (https://distantprovince.by/posts/its-rude-to-show-ai-output-to-people/), so please everyone just stop doing that.

@dusoft @pikesley

I guess the internet (LLMs, AI whatever the fuck you wanna call it) really, really doesn't want anyone to read "Watchmen"...

Is anyone surprised?

@clintruin @dusoft @pikesley Well, some search engines only it seems. @kagihq responded quite reasonably (w/ references, I just left them out)

**Quick Answer**

The phrase "Happy Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day" appears to have originated from a reference to Dr. Manhattan from the comic book series Watchmen by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons.

The specific imagery and phrase are associated with an event on November 10th, where Dr. Manhattan, in the process of reconstituting himself, appears as a disembodied circulatory system walking through a kitchen
