Route description

NC 116 is a two-lane mountain valley highway; it serves as a short-cut to Western Carolina University from Franklin and North Georgia. Mildly curvy, it passes through the town of Webster, where it crosses the Tuckasegee River.

History

gollark: My bot has about 300 lines of code, and it has... a fortune command, `++delete` (a joke one which just says "Deleted [whatever you typed]" and adds it to the deleted items list), a command to list recently "deleted" things, a command to run various esolangs and stuff using TIO.run, and a reminder thing.
gollark: Many of them *are* pretty similar.
gollark: I mean, kind of? Most of the complex Discord interaction logic is done by discord.py or whatever you use, but you do still have to program the commands.
gollark: Python with discord.py is good. My bot uses it and... mostly works.
