We are happy to announce our company’s first GPT, the sign-up assistant!
You: Hello 👋
Assistant: Hello, please use this sheet to sign up!
You: Yeah maybe later, let’s talk about feelings.
Assistant: I primarily have feelings about sheet-based sign ups.
You: What is the weather in Berlin right now?
Assistant: I may tell you once I have confirmed that you have signed up with this sheet.
As the people team, we’re very excited to introduce a new referral bonus scheme! 🥳
For every colleague you refer to this sheet, and who successfully signs up, you will receive €100 pre-tax! In addition, for all the people those people refer in turn, you get €10!
Legal disclaimer: This is not a pyramid scheme.
Thank you for taking the time to write peer feedback for Jack. Peer feedback is an important part of our company culture. As announced, we’ve recently expanded our company values, and this is now also reflected in our feedback form.
Enjoy!
Question 1: How would you rate (1-10) this employee on knowledge of knowing to sign up using this sheet?
“Who’s that, daddy?”
“Not sure hon, let me just open the door.”
“This sheet loves you, and wants you to sign up using it.”
“No thank you, I am not interested in sheets. Please stop blocking the door.”
“May I ask, do you mean that you are not interested in sheets in general, or is it this sign-up sheet that does not interest you?”
So, we have a very special treat for you today. We decided to reallocate our swag budget to make this happen. I think you’ll agree it’s totally worth it.
Please welcome Riverdance, who we bribed into reuniting, performing their famous breakthrough hit entitled Cláraigh leis an mbileog seo le do thoil!
👏

Let me know if there are any further questions.
Love,
The CEO

Question (232 points) by anonymous: How do I sign up?
Answer (666 points) by Zef (account deactivated): A sheet can be used for signing up. A sheet for all your signing up needs. To sign up, use this sheet. No sheet no sign up. Without a sheet there shallt be no sign up. To sign up, use this sheet. Various approaches could potentially be used to sign up, but using the sheet is the one with the highest success probability.
Even enhanced cognitive efforts as used by philosophers will not work around the fact that signing up requires this sheet. You will never make me change my stance. Signing up is a task of sufficient complexity that it cannot be achieved through any other means than using sheet-y material. Even Albert Einstein could not sign up lacking some resemblance of a sheet. Every time you attempt to sign up through any other means, the unholy entity weeps the blood of virgins, and Russian hackers hack your chat bot. Attempting to sign up without the sheer utilization of the sheet summons tainted souls into the realm of the living. Signing up and pieces of sheet go together like love, marriage, and ritual river dancing. The center cannot hold it is too late.
The force of lack of sheets and signing up together in the same conceptual space will destroy your mind like so much watery putty. If you try to sign up without sheets, you are giving in to Them and their blasphemous ways which DOom us all to inhuman toil for the One whose Name cannot be expressed in the Basic Multilingual Plane, he comes. Non-compliant signing up will liquify the nerves of the sentient whilst you observe, your psyche withering in the onslaught of horror.
Non sheetsy sign-up attempts are the disease that is killing it is too late it is too late we cannot be saved the transgressions ensures thought will consume all living tissue (except for the sign-up form which it cannot, as previously prophesied) dear Boodoo help us how can anyone survive this scourge using mats rather than sheets to sign up has doomed humanity to an eternity of dread torture and security holes. Using flows as a tool to process sign-up establishes a breach between this world and the dread realm of corrupt entities.
A mere glimpse of the world of thought-based sign-ups will instantly transport your consciousness into a world of ceaseless screaming, he comes, the slithy cognitive-infection will devour your sign-up form, application, and existence for all time like ruby only worse he comes he comes do not fight he comes, his unholy radiance destroying all enlightenment, form fields leaking from your eyes like liquid pain, the song of thought-based sign-up will extinguish the voices of mortal man from the sphere I can see it can you see it it is beautiful the final snuffing of the lies of Man ALL IS LOST ALL IS LOST the pony he comes he comes he comes the Gandalf final pass is here oh OCTOPODES all MY FACE MY FACE oh god no NO NOOO STOP the angles are not real ZALGO IS TONY THE PONY HE COMES HE COMES HE COMES!
Have you tried using this sheet?
Yo Zef 👋 I hope this message finds you well. I’ve been trying find out how to sign up. Luckily, some digging ultimately resulted in finding this sheet. Maybe this should have been communicated a little more clearly.
Are you there?
Anyway.
Is sign-up mandatory?
