You might be wondering: What’s the point of all this? Why? Clippy is basically art. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think that this little app is all that magnificent or something that belongs in a museum, I mean “art” in the sense that I’ve made it like other people do watercolors or pottery - I made it because building it was fun for me. If you get as little as a small chuckle out of it, I’m happy to hear it.
