I'm actually not kidding I needed some help constructing some "highbrow humor" (I was making a childish poop joke in the nursing station) and was actually pretty impressed with the results. When I double checked there weren't a lot of search results for horse apples referring to poop (although there were some). Apparently that term usually refers to a specific fruit that isn't even an apple??? But that was the only one that didn't follow.
I've actually found AI pretty good at doing background work for my creative endeavors, but it certainly lacks that special mix of optimism and deep bitterness that most human creatives can convey with ease.
Here's the complete list for the curious:

That wiki page felt like a troll but I realize it likely is not. I don't know why I wasn't expecting the main image to be a pile of shit given we're already here, but I was, ever so slightly, surprised. I suppose maybe I'm most surprised that they just went for it. No hedging by just putting a picture of a horse and leaving you to scroll down if you're brave enough; no taking the easy way out by not providing an image at all.
Maybe it's also a twinge of jealousy because I was always the person who could discuss my bowel movements while eating, even before being a nurse and I've always been pressed to push that part of myself down for others' comfort, yet here German Wikipedia is, just throwing a photo of a pile of shit right up there at the top. Immediately followed by another photo of the shit still in the horse's asshole. Right there. Under the pile. They just fuckin' went for it.
