gollark: There's a big table of insults/negative words, things which generally separate clauses, and things which imply they don't mean the real potatOS.
gollark: ```luafunction _G.is_blasphemous(message) local clauses = {message:lower()} for _, sep in pairs(clause_separators) do local out = {} for _, x in pairs(clauses) do for _, y in pairs(string.split(x, sep)) do table.insert(out, y) end end clauses = out end for _, clause in pairs(clauses) do for _, word in pairs(negative_words) do if clause:match(word) and clause:match "potatos" then for _, iword in pairs(ignore_if_present_words) do if clause:match(iword) then return false, iword, clause end end return true, word, clause end end end return falseend```
gollark: It has a surprisingly good algorithm for guessing whether people *intended* to blaspheme potatOS.
