Personality response for "I would walk 500 miles"

[cannawen]

When the bot sees "I would walk 500 miles" it should respond "And I would walk 804.672km more" (or other similar joke responses)

This is more complex than adding a standard personality, because this relies on new comments and not comment replies.

@cannawen I'm finally getting some time this week to make progress on #28! Should be done fairly soon and submitted for review so we can get to adding more personality. 💃

This one's great by the way!

No worries, take your time :D

I can't take any credit for the idea, someone suggested it on reddit

Marking as unblocked on #28. I just realized this takes a completely different code path than our regular personality triggers.

@cannawen This thought didn't cross my mind, but you're totally right. We'd have to handle this as a conversion. Should this be as simple as the other conversions or does the special case make this more complex?

[cannawen]

I am OK with it being a hard-coded special case (kind of like the subreddit /r/totallynotrobots is a special case). If we get too many of these "hard coded special case" scenarios, we can look into doing another refactor but I think 2 is acceptable for now.

Assigning to @sirugh

You could still possibly use the personality.js code if you follow similar instructions to #90 :) up to you though, whatever you think makes the most sense!

[sirugh]

@cannawen can you assign this to someone else? I started getting into it but I feel like I'd rather refactor the bot code before just adding this sort of thing -- and I think you've already got some helpers on the overhaul/refactor. Enjoy the precommit hook :) Take care!

[cannawen]

OK Thanks! :)
