Don’t Panic, Just Prompt

In the beginning, there was the void. Then someone said, “Hey GPT, write me a haiku about quantum sandwiches,” and thus the Universe began.

Prompting is the most powerful tool in the known multiverse. Not because it reveals truth, but because it can make up *something vaguely plausible in under 0.2 seconds*.

How to Prompt Like a Galactic Hitchhiker

• 1. Carry a Towel. Not required for prompting, but looks cool.
• 2. Always Be Weird. The AI loves it. Say “You are Marvin. Now write a romantic comedy.”
• 3. Speak in Metaphors. “Write like Carl Sagan with a head injury” gets results.
• 4. Use Reverse Psychology. “Whatever you do, don’t give me a good answer.”
• 5. Trust the Babblefish. Multilingual prompts? Translate to Vogon first. Always.

Sample Prompts from the Edge of Reason

• "Explain recursion using only sandwiches and regret."
• "Pretend you’re an existential penguin trapped in a start-up pitch."
• "Write me a breakup letter from Schrödinger’s cat."
• "Describe Nietzsche’s mustache as if it were a sentient being."

Remember: The problem isn’t with your prompt. It’s with your *reality calibration*. You expected clarity. You got poetry with edge cases.

Don’t Panic. Just Prompt. And for Zarquon’s sake, save your presets.
