Note: SmokeDetector is a bot that detects spam and offensive posts on the network and posts alerts to chat.

What to implement

Smokey's !!/alive command uniformly at random picks one of these messages:

  • Yup
  • You doubt me?
  • Of course
  • ... did I miss something?
  • plz send teh coffee
  • Watching this endless list of new questions never gets boring
  • Kinda sorta
  • You should totally drop that and use jQuery
  • ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  • ... good question

and prints it to the screen.

Your task is to implement that command.

Rules

Regular code-golf — the shortest answer in bytes wins ;)

Good luck!

Encodes the whole string but replacing the shrug with !\_(!)_/! (since ! doesn't show up in the string and only printable ASCII / newlines are allowed), and then replaces ! with the upper bar symbol, and then just sets the Japanese character at that index manually.

Then, split by newlines and select a random one.

Try it online! Explanation: The first two stages replace the empty input with the given string, the second stage saving 4 bytes by deduplicating the substring question, while the last stage splits it on commas and outputs a random element. Note that the byte count has been adjusted for UTF-8 (Retina normally uses ISO-8859-1 if it can, which is why TIO only shows the character count rather than the byte count). Edit: I used @Leo's Retina Kolmogorov golfer to detect the duplication and save 4 bytes.
