We all love Louis Theroux's documentaries, which are not just profound and meaningful, but also create wonderful moments like this.
That's from @NoContextLouis, a Twitter account that screenshots scenes from Louis Theroux documentaries without any context. Like this.
And this.
Now there's a bot that automatically makes up lines from Louis Theroux documentaries that of course do not exist. Like this...
I'm in California to meet Adam, a former teacher turned shock jockey who believes Hitler wrote Candle in the Wind
And this.
I'm in New Jersey to meet Finn, a former local radio DJ turned Morrissey impersonator who believes horses are racist
Yesterday, the bot created this.
I'm in Amsterdam to meet Hannah, a former IT expert turned cybergoth who believes Hull is a portal to Hell
What's so great about this bot is that Theroux loved it, and offered this challenge on Twitter.
Alright, you asked for it. If this gets enough retweets I'll record it. Using my real voice. https://t.co/hg5ssu7TdJ
And look at the number of retweets it got.
So he did it.
And he uploaded it.
Et voila! I did it in quite a serious mode. I guess it felt like a pretty important story. @louistherouxbot
The creator of the bot, @ultrabrilliant, has also made this one, so here's hoping that Danny Dyer records one soon.
I'm Danny Dyer, and I'm about to meet Britain's horniest firemen
