This post begins this series, and it is *exactly* what you think.

To test this out, I created a persona, The Shitposting Dude, and created a stack (https://www.shitpostdude.com) and have been taking posts from here (or outlines that became posts) and running them through an LLM to recast them in the voice of "[The Dude](https://thebiglebowski.fandom.com/wiki/The%5FDude?ref=sweatyspice.com)" with tons of references from The Big Lebowski. Still in its early days, but if you want to check it out, and possibly give it a follow or a subscribe you can help jumpstart the experiment. (note: paid subscriptions are turned on there, I do not expect or want anyone, especially my Sweaty subscribers to actually pay.) Here's a post on the Paypal Mafia: [These Guys Have a Lot of Gall, ManThey dressed up as the mob for a magazine photo in 2007\. The Dude thought that was funny. It is considerably less funny now that they’re running the government, man.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/11/f5/11f5bb9f-30c4-445e-afa3-85a47d260f6e/content/images/icon/icon-4944c800-74ce-48e7-897c-7906b7b76fef.svg)The Dude ShitpostsJeffery Lebowski![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/11/f5/11f5bb9f-30c4-445e-afa3-85a47d260f6e/content/images/thumbnail/https-3A-2F-2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com-2Fpublic-2Fimages-2F59e39c34-20d4-4264-90a3-5337639c90c5_1440x1191-d9ddbe7d-b49d-4a2d-87a0-a825557bf86d.jpeg)](https://www.shitpostdude.com/p/these-guys-have-a-lot-of-gall-man?ref=sweatyspice.com)
