Long before. One of Asimov's ridiculous Feghoots was about a vote over martian secession.
(I am not joking. This being a Feghoot, Isaac was winding up to a pun, but he really did write the story.)

It can be anything. Lots of people post poetry, even though the hashtag started for stories. I just like writing silly science fiction and feghoot type stories.

On one hand, this is a perfect microfic feghoot.
On the other hand, as a cat, I cannot help but be offended by this comparison...

"You know that creature, je ne sais pas, what is it called?"
"Which creature?"
"You know, it is really clever, and then it's stupid, and you can tell it what to do and sometimes to does it but you can't be sure, and some find it fascinating..."
"Heh, sounds almost like ChatGP-"
"Out! Le chat!"

Have you ever groaned at an elaborate pun? It might have been a *feghoot*! The term comes from a 1956 sci-fi series whose adventures always ended in cringey puns.
This episode is guaranteed to make you laugh (or at least groan)!
