Personnel

gollark: Also, it uses insults harvested from a conversation with Andrew *months* ago.
gollark: #3 is interesting because it's obviously written by me, due to the use of an external interpreter and such, and also because they all were.
gollark: Which was of course incorrect.
gollark: However, I was also tempted to blame the previous gollarious one on citrons.
gollark: I would be tempted to blame #2 on citrons, because it displays citrous attributes.
