The post consists of an interactive rock paper scissors game which you play against eggbug. When you select one of rock, paper or scissors, eggbug immediately plays the winning move. A sequence of interactive dialogue then appears. Eggbug says 'I win, now pay up!' You respond with 'Hey no fair! You were hard-coded to play the winning move!' Eggbug replies 'I won fair and square, now pay up!' You answer 'What is this about paying? I did not agree to this!' On saying this, the screen goes black. Eggbug appears on the screen, bigger now. They say 'Pay up. I am done asking nicely'. A link to buy cohost plus appears.

i can't go to hell - i'm all out of vacation days. i watch space rocks and yell at computers for my day job. probably too old for any of this
i think i might be burned out on internet social. it's hard to keep doing it. it's hard to even maintain the amount of attention i'm already giving it
i am the cause of most of my own problems
furthermore, capitalism must be destroyed

Jokes on you, I already have cohost plus and do not plan to cancel any time soon.
can we get some kind of cohost plus subscriber CSS tag so eggbug knows i already paid my protection money this month 
my uncle who works at nintendo told me he beat eggbug
yeah and eggbug is gonna be in the next smash and they put sakurai in a life support machine so he can make it
No joke I actually went directly to subscribe to Cohost Plus after this
was already leaning towards subscribing and this made me laugh so hard i did it
Maybe warn about it turning into creepypasta shit, anxiety is bad enough without this on top
What the fuck I won. I picked scissors, they picked paper, and they got all scared and sad. Is this thing RNG somehow?????
Anyways, I'm going to stop screwing with you now - [explanation of how to win, redacted after the below reply was made]
ashamed to say I RE'd the thing just to figure out the condition and how it's done. clever easter egg
That's legit, I want people to try figuring it out whichever way works for them!
Hey, it's been two months and some of us still haven't figured it out. Have mercy!
Oh right. This thing. I guess I will spoil it - it uses the same technique that I outline here, but with just a tiny moving square in one of the buttons.
(The win-button is hidden in the scissors-button, it moves roughly between the tips of the two fingers of the emoji)
