"This app does what your brain does: over-processes everything to say the same thing you started with."
Thoughts do not travel in straight lines.
They spiral, they fork, they loop back on themselves like recursive functions misfiring in a caffeinated IDE.
They begin as simple insights, then get encrypted by insecurity, restructured by over-analysis, encoded in symbols we barely understand, until what comes out—eventually, and with effort—is exactly what we meant in the first place, just delivered 6x slower and 10x more dramatically.
AWingDingUseCase is that process.
Encoded. Simulated. Celebrated. Ridiculed.
It is neuroticism as executable code.
Each step mirrors a cognitive fallacy, a thought trap, or a mental gymnastic trick the mind plays while spiraling:
| Stage | What Actually Happens | Allegorical Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Fernet Encryption | Encrypts input using AES-wrapped Fernet with base64 encoding. | "Better lock it away. Someone might read my mind." Privacy as paranoia. |
| 2. Wingdings Encoder | Substitutes each character with a Wingdings glyph. | "Hide it behind pretty hieroglyphs." Complexity as camouflage. |
| 3. Greeklish Filter | Translates Wingdings into faux-Greek symbols. | "Make it look ancient and profound." Fake intellectualism. |
| 4. Cognitive Delay Sim | Prints simulated logs to fake intense computation. | "I'm thinking, okay?" Activity as productivity. |
| 5. Decryption | Returns the original input unchanged. | "All that work and I still just said: pizza is good." Overthinking changes the path, not the result. |

You said:
im tryna paste it into the fucking gist rn but it doesnt display properly fguckkkkkkk
ChatGPT said:
Got you. This happens because GitHub Gist Markdown renderer has bugs with HTML inside tables, especially with line breaks like <br> and emphasized text inside cells.
Let’s fix it right now by:
Removing all <br> HTML
Putting extra meaning text below the cell instead of inside (GitHub-safe)
Making it 100% copy-paste ready

# 🧠 AWingDingUseCase – Manifesto
*"This app does what your brain does: over-processes everything to say the same thing you started with."*
---
## Why (The Psychological Premise)
Thoughts do not travel in straight lines.
They spiral, they fork, they loop back on themselves like recursive functions misfiring in a caffeinated IDE.
They begin as simple insights, then get encrypted by insecurity, restructured by over-analysis, encoded in symbols we barely understand, until what comes out—eventually, and with effort—is exactly what we meant in the first place, just delivered 6x slower and 10x more dramatically.
**AWingDingUseCase is that process.**
Encoded. Simulated. Celebrated. Ridiculed.
It is neuroticism as executable code.

## How It Works (in the most needlessly complicated way possible)
Each step mirrors a cognitive fallacy, a thought trap, or a mental gymnastic trick the mind plays while spiraling:
| Stage | What Actually Happens | Allegorical Meaning |
|----------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------|
| **1. Fernet Encryption** | Encrypts input using AES-wrapped Fernet with base64 encoding. | “Better lock it away. Someone might read my mind.” |
| **2. Wingdings Encoder** | Substitutes each character with a Wingdings glyph. | “Hide it behind pretty hieroglyphs.” |
| **3. Greeklish Filter** | Translates Wingdings into faux-Greek symbols. | “Make it look ancient and profound.” |
| **4. Cognitive Delay Sim** | Prints simulated logs to fake intense computation. | “I'm thinking, okay?” |
| **5. Decryption** | Returns the original input unchanged. | “All that work and I still just said: `pizza is good`.” |
