It's funny enough that I have my suspicions about it actually being bot generated.
"Avid collector of dust" also seems cleverer than you'd think for random generation. But I did laugh hard when I first saw it on Twitter.
None of those bot-generated jokes are real!
I don't want to be judged by robots when I die.
Or before, but at least then I have time to respond.
That's from a book called "I Forced a Bot to Write This Book", which was not actually written by a bot. Sorry.

"She owed us so many poems" is quite poetic, something one might say of poet who died young.
I remember doing this kind of artificial text generation in the 1960s. A friend of mine was a fan of Lewis Carroll. He trained it, as we'd say now, on a some Sylvie and Bruno and a few works more familiar. The human mind is a wonder. It was hard to tell what was computer generated and what was from the original corpus.
It occurred to me that it might be fake. The photo is also hilarious to me, with the extra eyes and all.
I didn't notice that before you said.
I feel like if we didn't know about the book, the combination of weird text and weird photo would have been a clue. Someone messing around naively with a text generator would probably not be doing the same with a photo generator simultaneously.
I didn't know about the book, and I still suspected it was phony. But I don't know that I think it's more funny for being a bot. If Steve Martin delivered this eulogy in The Jerk, I would have laughed.
I take heebie's posts humorously, but not literally.
