Have you tried asking your local psychotherapist? M-x doctor RET I am the psychotherapist. Please, describe your problems. Each time you are finished talking, type RET twice. Why does Emacs need Symbolic Integration? What do you think? I don't know, just answer the question! Why do you say you do not know just answer the question? [...] Maybe you'll have better luck than I did with mine.

Can't wait for someone to do a M-x doctor over GPT-3, AiDungeon style.

Oh my gosh, someone please add an M-x gpt-doctor. Hmm.. I wonder how we'd build the training dataset... How many other meme modes exist? I dug up the earliest commits I could find, and apparently one of the earliest hooks was "protect-innocence-hook": https://twitter.com/theshawwn/status/1327459335245422597 https://twitter.com/theshawwn/status/1327459335245422597 If the buffer's filename is "sex.6", it asks whether the user is over 18. If so, it renames the buffer to "celibacy.1". Apparently it was in the file lisp/play/meese.el. Emacs archaeology is more fun than it should be.

  There's M-x zone, a bunch of games - anything from Tetris and Bubbles to Zork, morse code handling (M-x morse-region, unmorse-region), inserting interesting phrases for NSA spooks... There's a lot. There's also nyan-mode, made by yours truly, but unfortunately it does not ship with Emacs by default :).

    Who do we have to lobby to get nyan-mode into emacs mainline? Happy to send a recommendation email. Was surprised how high quality the repo is, too! https://github.com/TeMPOraL/nyan-mode https://github.com/TeMPOraL/nyan-mode It even has an accompanying blog post, which I found informative. http://jacek.zlydach.pl/blog/2011-08-25-introducing-nyan-mode-el-turn-your-emacs-into-nyanmacs.html http://jacek.zlydach.pl/blog/2011-08-25-introducing-nyan-mod...

      Thank you for your kind words. I wouldn't call it high-quality, though. I wrote this back when I barely knew how to wield Lisp or use Emacs. I've gained much more experience in both since then; I keep promising myself that one of these days, I'll clean it up and make it a stellar little mode... As for getting it into mainline, I'd be OK with going through the FSF copyright paperwork, but I worry this will probably fail over the uncertain status of Nyan Cat image/music IP...

        You might not think it's high quality but I used it for years and preferred it to the other modeline place indicators and now that I've been reminded of it, I may go add it back to my config So thanks for your work

  One of my favorites is "Zippy the pinhead" quotes (M-x yow). I believe this has been removed due to copyright issues, but it is still available if you look. Zippy's quotes could be sent to the doctor via M-x psychoanalyze-pinhead.

I think the Emacs doctor drilled down my insecurities down to a bad exam in school. (S)he ? claimed that his/her secretary will send me the bill, but I haven't been back so they must have forgotten.
