Sorry, but I don’t share my prompts for free.
They take ages to think up (several minutes) and require mad prompt-engineering skillz. Sign up for my PromptMonkey course to learn how to make stuff like this. Prices start at just £1,000,000.

Also, can someone please stop the world. I wanna get off.

Thanks, folks.
