    I’ll do you one better

    function* sorry() { yield "I'm sorry"; }

    Call sorry.next().value as many times as you need to baby, hell you can even use it in a for-of loop because Generator functions are Iterable. I fucking love JavaScript

      lol that doesn’t work either tho. it yields the string once and then is done. you still need a loop inside

        You’re right! That’s actually a really cool point about Generator functions too, them having while(true) loops is very unproblematic :D

        I’m correcting myself to:

        function* sorry() { while(true){ yield "I'm sorry"; } }
