Bot Ideas

Since I made my first bot, I haven't been able to stop thinking about bot ideas.

Completed

Not Quite Synonymous Compound Bot would take compound words, separate the words, choose one of the words, substitute a nearby/synonymous word for it, and tweet the new word.

E.g., applesauce → applegravy, windfall → gustfall
- This now exists as @novelcompounds.
Spencer Krug eBooks would tweet Markov chains from a corpus of Moonface, Sunset Rubdown, and Wolf Parade lyrics written by Spencer Krug.
- I made a proof of concept for this using Mispy's twitter_ebooks and lyrics from the three Moonface EPs.
- This now exists as @spencerkrugbot.

Musician Beef would invent beef between musicians.

E.g.:
- Madonna says Bon Iver stole her song
- Peaches 'bored' with Weird Al collaboration
Oblique Exclamation Bot would do what @obliquestions does, but with sentences that end in exclamation points.
Lost in Translation Bot would take a sentence, translate it to another language, then translate it back to English, then again back and forth a few times, and then tweet it. (Inspired by The Books’ ‘Free Translator’.)
Rhyming Synonym Bot would take a two-word phrase, try to find a rhyming nearby/synonymous word for one of the words, and tweet the new phrase.

E.g., fire station → conflagration station
Boots with the Fur Bot would create tweets using this formula, based on the popular phrase from Flo Rida’s ‘Low’:

Had the [adjective] [article of clothing] and the [article of clothing] with the [noun] (with the [noun]!)
Conversation Starter Bot would ask questions that two people who recently met might ask. E.g.:
- Have you ever been to [geographic location]?
- What's your favorite [noun]?
- Have you ever seen [noun]?
- How often do you [verb]?
Would You Rather Bot would present two awful scenarios.
- Would utilize certain tropes, e.g.: have X arms or X every time you Y or have to X whenever you heard Y.
- @wouldratherbot exists, but mine would be more in the spirit of unaswerable, often surreal or gross WYRs.

Asphalt Oil Rainbow Image Bot would generate a circular asphalt oil rainbow
Bird's Eye Speller would take a word and OCR Google Maps images of rivers and tributaries until it found a matching image for each letter, thereby spelling the word with images of rivers.
- Maybe I would need to do a high-contrast or hue filter on the images before trying to OCR it?

Melody-a-Day Bot would generate a random melody using the Web Audio API and generate a link to a website that would play it.
