Megamind (Bot)

== Oh You're A Villain Alright... But Not A Super One! ==
Megamind, to most, simply relates to the fantastic 2010 dreamworks movie.
To the Meme Council, however, Megamind is a powerful entity. 
Or... at least they pretend he is.
== Well, my end starts at the beginning... The very beginning! ==
Megamind (Bot) is, of course, a discord bot. It's a bot created by Mike Kachowski after he thought "hey wouldn't it be funny if I made a discord bot for the meme chat" The bot is named after the iconic movie character, and had his humble beginnings in June of 2019.
The bot itself isn't too complicated, at least, it wasn't. 
When first created, Megamind would merely respond to certain phrases with a reaction image, such as "hmm" and "sans." This of course led to the very first thing the bot did being breaking entirely, as it reacted to its own message in an infinite loop. The bot slowly became more and more complicated, as Mike Kachowski allowed The Snazzmaster and The Meme Lord to make additions to the bot, adding more and more commands. Eventually it became even more complicated, as Mike Kachowski would begin to add actually somewhat useful features to it, including a calendar of meme events, a swear blocker, and a custom meme generator.
Notably these additions would cause Kachowski great pain, as he would regret the immediate hour time sink into "the funny bot".
He has gone on record saying that he often regrets that his longest and most in depth coding project is a meme bot for a discord server with his friends.
Megamind's main profile picture is a poorly photoshopped combination of Vector from the Despicable Me series, and Megamind, created by Mike Kachowski. The combination has come to be known as "Vectormind". Though it often changes to account for holidays or other events.
== Oh! My big giant blue head! ==
In an attempt to get it up 24/7 without paying, Megamind (Bot) has run off of many things; Mike Kachowski/Meme Lord's own computers, a raspberry Pi, Glitch.io, and Replit.
None of these things seem to stick, however, as many of the guides for making these options run constantly are either out of date, or don't work because Megamind is at least 5 versions of Discord.js behind.
Megamind breaks constantly, and rather than fixing some of the issues once and for all, Kachowski often just puts a piece of duct tape over it so he doesn't have to look at the problem anymore, which inevitably completely bricks the bot, and he has to spend 30 minutes fixing it.
Overall, Megamind's code is a 3000 line mess, and he's grown too powerful to stop.
