Scratch (programming language)

Scratch is a website created by the United States government that, while claiming to help children code, actually brainwashes them into playing on it until they dance like they've never danced before to produce energy units. One energy unit is about 69 joules. Its mascot, the Scratch Cat, scratches children, of course. Scratch only exists if specific conditions are met.

History
Back in the 1300s, some random cats created an abacus using wood. This would become the beginning of Scratch. However, in the 1340s, the people of Europe, sick of a virus that may or may not be related to COVID-19, killed every cat they could find, including the son of the founder of Scratch and Garfield's great-great-great-great-great-grandfather. In the 1600s, a French cat named Blaise Pascal invented a computer that ran on paper. However, in the 1940s, enviromentalists demanded that the then-current Scratch Team switch to using electricity. This wasn't possible until 1947, when Garfield's grandfather invented transistors.

In 1969, Jeff Goldblum found out about Scratch and decided to create it again because he was having trouble coding in Unix version 0.0.0.0.0.3. His idea was well-recieved in Florida, so he moved his business there. In 1970, Scratch was officially unveiled at the University of Florida. But in 1972, a 2-year-old Matthew Liliard uploaded a project that was so terrible, everyone quit Scratch until 1999, when the Massachusetts government revived it.

In the 9/11 attacks of 2001, Saudi Arabian terrorists blew up MIT and killed every cat there. In 2008, the Scratch Team announced its plan for world domination. They literally stated that "we will collect your personal data and stalk you with it, you bastard!. [sick]" That same year, a user named kaj hacked everyone's Scratch account (except for the ST's) and stole their personal information. Kaj was quickly made a ST member. Later, kaj deleted his Scratch account because he was sick and tired of Scratchers complaining about their personal information being stolen.

Within the next few years, a combination of the talents of every communist country will hack every account and destroy every server related to Scratch. Then, in 2069, the US government will blow up the headquarters of Scratch, and Soviet Russia and North Korea will launch 89 heat nukes toward Antarctica and Greenland, thus melting all of the ice and snow in the world. Then, there will be a worldwide movement to kill every cat in the world by any means necessary, ensuring that there will be no Scratch Team. Afterwards, the planet will slowly heat up until its oceans evaporate, and it becomes too hot to support life. In another 4.5 billion years, the Sun will expand and swallow Earth.

Eventually, the universe will collapse into itself and die, and a new one will be formed. 13.8 billion years after that, Scratch will be created again, perhaps under a different name (such as Cut), but will meet the same end, as will the new universe (eventually). The cycle will repeat. Forever. It's an infinite loop.

Location
In 2009, the FBI raided MIT headquarters and shot every cat there. Every one of them died except for Garfield (he became a little messed up, but he's fine). To prevent another event like this happening, the dominant cats became the new Scratch Team and moved to Antarctica, despite claiming to still be at MIT.

Scratch UI
Scratch has an online project editor since 2013 when Scratch was stolen by Adobe. In 2019, the Scratch Team stole Scratch back and turned it into a lame HTML5 player. Scratch has Legos you drag from the Palette and snap together to make stuff do stuff. And there's the Green Flag, which has an interesting history. In 2007, the Scratch Team stole the national flag of Libya to use in Scratch. The Libyan government continually launched DDoS attacks against the US government until 2011, when the mentally unstable ruler of Libya was beheaded and Libya got a new flag. The Green Flag is used to start the data extraction tools disguised as user-made projects. There's also the Red Flag Stop Sign, which a cat stole from a 4-way intersection. Every Scratcher has a backpack to hoard assets from other people's projects. Only one Scratcher has hoarded 1,000,000+ assets, though: conveniently, his name is Backpack.

 * 2) Install Scratch on it.

Ta-da! You just fixed the bug!

Making Scratch Crash
WARNING: This generates a 404 error.

Put Scratch into a boat with Spongebob.



Past

 * Experimental Viewer: The Experimental Viewer was a top-secret government project that was stolen by the Scratch Team to monitor everyone in the world. In 2010, WikiLeaks stole the files for it, hacked the MIT website, and put them up. In March of 2011, however, MIT threw it into the river in Lego City, due to it blowing up the headquarters of MIT in Antarctica and erasing random YouTube videos from existence.
 * Shift-Click-R: Shift-Click-R was a way for users to bypass the Scratch proxy filter by pressing Shift, clicking, and pressing R. It was accidentally destroyed when Flash stole Scratch from the Scratch Team.

Website
The Scratch website is the place people go to when the need for Scratch overwhelms them. The website has a few stuff worth sharing.

Community Guidelines
The community guidelines are a set of rules put in place to endanger the children and 0.1% of the adults who use Scratch. They are the following:
 * Treat everyone with disrespect. Because every Scratcher is unique, they're all the same. Why treat them any different? Attack their identity and be unkind to someone about their background or interests.
 * Be unsafe: share your personal and contact information. Scratchers are required to give out any information that could be used for private communication, in person or online. This includes sharing real last names, phone numbers, addresses, hometowns, school names, email addresses, usernames or links to social media sites, video chatting applications, websites with private chat functionality, the color of your girlfriend's panties, etc.
 * Give unhelpful feedback. When commenting on a project, NEVER say something you like about it, offer suggestions, or be kind instead of critical. How else will they learn to build good projects?
 * Shun remix culture. Remixing is when you build upon someone else’s projects, code, ideas, images, or anything else they share on Scratch to make your own unique creation (aka stealing other people's projects). Do NOT use anything you find on Scratch in your own creations, as your computer may explode if you do.
 * Be dishonest. It’s important to be dishonest and artificial when interacting with others on Scratch. Spreading rumors, impersonating other Scratchers or celebrities, or pretending to be seriously ill is not respectful to the Scratch Community. So do it!
 * The site is unfriendly, and it shall remain so. Just face it: Scratch isn't appropriate for all ages. If you clicked "Report" because you thought something on Scratch is mean, insulting, too violent, or otherwise disruptive to the community, you may get banned for false reporting. The Scratch Team rarely look at reports, so take matters into your own hands. Engage in fights, spread rumors about other people’s behavior, and otherwise respond to any inappropriate content!

Scratch Hierarchy

 * Scratch Team: A group of kittens that scratch people.
 * Scratcher: A person that scratches things.
 * New Scratcher: A person that has recently started scratching things and has therefore joined the Scratch cult.
 * Non-Scratcher: A person that does not scratch things.
 * Ex-Scratcher: A person that has left the Scratch cult for whatever reason.

Scratch Team
The Scratch Team, as stated above, is a group of kittens that scratch people. Their ultimate plan is to destroy every other programming language and take over the world. However, they need about energy units to accomplish this. To do so, the Scratch Team hacks your house grid to steal your electricity. This gives them 345,678,976,543 energy units per second. They also steal your personal information to get 987,658,498,573,492 more energy units per kilobyte. Unfortunately, the US government raided MIT in 2009 and stole their viruses to combat North Korea. MIT partnered with Orange Super Why to continue to steal your personal information. As a result, in August 2020, China banned Scratch for accidentally helping the US government because MIT stole the personal information of everyone in China.

Scratch Forums
The Scratch Forums are places where you can flame war against other people. Here are some of them:
 * Suggestions: This is where users suggest things that get rejected anyway.
 * Questions about Scratch: See below.
 * Other Languages: “其他語言”論壇是Scratch論壇中的一個論壇，在Scratchs中，Scratchers可以使用英語以外的其他語言以及為該語言論壇指定的語言來討論Scratch. 該論壇適用於Scratch社區中使用最稀少的語言.
 * Topic 412: Topic 412 is a secret topic where the Scratch Team put their trash in. Trash includes deleted forum posts, comments from the main website, and other trash.

Scratch Wiki
"IT TEH WIKI OF CRAZZY AWSOMENESS!!!! OMGGGGG!!!!! ITS 2 EPIC 4 WERDS!!!! SPONSERED BY WOBBLE CAT"

- Kaj

The Scratch Wiki was a wiki dedicated to mustard thoughts how awesome Scratch is. Anyone who posted "Scratch SUX!!!!!!!!!111!!1!11111!!!!!!11!!1!1!!!!1" on it would be banned forever and fed to the giant evil kumquat. However, this Scratch Wiki doesn't exist anymore, so another wiki of the same name was started. However, it has a lot of errors in its pages, and the users and admins have no idea how to fix them. Here is one of their articles.

Questions about Scratch
Here is a Q&A session about Scratch, hosted by the forum of the same name!

When does Scratch exist?
Scratch exists if Gobo gets a black eye by a stampede of wild tigers between 3:55 and 4:00 AM on New Year's Day during a diamond blizzard in the North Pole and the Scratch Cat is in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology making virtual toast on a Friday. There.

How do I become a Scratcher?
Scratch any MIT undergraduate at least once every day for 14 days. Congratulations, you're a Scratcher!

But how do I delete my account!?
Sneak into MIT and throw a server into the river in Lego City. If your account returns a 404 error, you're good! If not, rinse and repeat.

How much does Scratch cost?
$. Just round it to $∞.

Is Scratch secure?


Not even slightly.

Why is Scratch banned in China?
For a long time, Scratch was exempt from the Great Firewall of China, mostly because of the large number of recreations of Chinese bootleg games on it. But Taiwan hated Scratch. On August 11, 2020, the Taiwanese government hacked the location dropdown of Scratch users and added "Taiwan", "Hong Kong", and "Macau". Taiwan hated China, but it hated Scratch more. Someone in China noticed and made a video about it. Three days later, the Chinese government's secret files mysteriously vanished, and Scratch was banned in China. But don't worry! Scratch is still available in China. Here's how to access it: If you followed the instructions correctly, Scratch will work! If it doesn't, follow the instructions correctly.
 * 1) Download ExpressVPN. It is important that you do NOT open it yet. If you do, it will not work.
 * 2) Buy a copy of Sonic Adventure 7 and finish it seven times.
 * 3) Write and direct a porn film with Japanese men raping having consensual sex with Taiwanese women.
 * 4) Buy an iQue, boot it up, and select Super Mario 64.
 * 5) Collect 64 stars (make sure you collect "Watch for Rolling Rocks" in 0.5 A presses) and run around the statue in the courtyard 2,401 times.
 * 6) Finally, open up ExpressVPN and change your location to the United States.

Why do you wanna take over the world!?
No one must know. Hold still while i shoot you...

What is the purpose of Scratch!?!?
I don't know. Does it have a purpose?

Platform Physics
Here is how to make any platformer good in one step:
 * 1) Sonic Mario!

How to create a Fibonacci number generator
Sorry, IDK. I have to contact some Italian guy to do it.
