I asked chatGPT to write me a short story about a guy who loved to change his cat litter pan. Here’s what it wrote:
“The Peculiar Path to Enlightenment”
Marvin always knew he was different. While others sought enlightenment through meditation or yoga, he found his calling in the most unexpected of places – his cat’s litter box.
It began innocently enough. One fateful morning, fresh from the shower, Marvin’s wet feet led him to an accidental step in Fluffy’s sandy toilet. The gritty sensation between his toes sparked a curiosity he couldn’t ignore.
Throwing caution to the wind, Marvin lifted his foot to his mouth. His tongue darted out, collecting the granules clinging to his skin. The taste was… indescribable. Earthy, yet synthetic. Gritty, yet smooth. It was a revelation.
Days passed, and Marvin’s newfound hobby evolved. He’d roll individual pieces of litter on his tongue, savoring the unique texture against the roof of his mouth. It was a sensation unmatched by any earthly pleasure.
As his addiction grew, so did the consequences. A persistent ache in his mouth, coupled with suspicious blisters on his feet, hinted at something more sinister. But Marvin didn’t care. He had found his path to transcendence, one litter granule at a time.
In the end, it wasn’t enlightenment Marvin achieved, but a nasty case of foot-and-mouth disease. Yet as he lay in his hospital bed, feverish and grinning, Marvin knew he’d do it all again in a heartbeat.
