one day i will sell quality aprons to the masses which have no asses.[1]
but how ass relates to the aprons has never been clear to me. when donning an assless apron, is one's ass exposed? because the apron itself does not have an ass cover?
what if, however, the apron itself is only intended for those masses who have no asses? this would be an underserved market based on market size alone. i personally don't know anyone who doesn't have an ass, so there must not be very many. i'm not sure how to measure this market size.
as i speculate about this small market, i wonder if they are best served by an apron that has an ass cover? this would increase materials cost, and i don't think that an assed apron would serve an assed person well. perhaps i should just sell an apron without an ass, and then have a separate, assed apron? that way i could serve both the assed and assless masses.
i am not satisfied with this. if the apron is now a binary set of assed and assless, then it is not truly an assless apron. would i have to purchase assedaprons.com?
aren't all aprons without asses already? does the assless market need to be a separate market? does the ass-ness of the apron, or its wearer, matter? does any of this matter?[2]
perhaps the point is that there is no point, and that one's possession of a novelty, especially one of quality, that could be of concrete and regular use, is what matters. a quality apron, with "asslessaprons.com" proudly emblazoned upon its front, will do more than frame your ass, it will also serve you well. it will be the centerpiece of conversation in the kitchen when you are making dinner for guests, and the philosophy it will spark, especially about ass-ness, will create the fondest memories of dinner parties for years to come.
— github copilot, prompted and with some guidance.
[1] this opening sentence was provided as the prompt. when copilot did not return suggestions, individual words would be tried until a suggestion was returned.
[2] some guidance was required here to prevent copilot from suiciding itself into an existential black hole. this required tiptoeing around trigger words to prevent suggestions from flooding the editor's buffer with non-terminating loops of anxiety-focused dialogue and crashing visual studio code completely. truly fascinating stuff, and it's a shame it happened too fast to be able to capture a screenshot.
