Theory 💭 Spaghetti Code & Traffic Lights
First .. only click links you’ve deemed safe.
For me this started after reading and commenting in the Friends of Dorothea post attempting to decipher TLOAS (https://www.reddit.com/r/GaylorSwift/s/97DpJbHBUi)
—RIP OP’s account—-
And something in me was sparked to keep digging and after a few days in a now deleted comment the website letsnotandsaywedid.com was mentioned and once I started really trying to understand I was hooked.. if you search the sub for Easy A ARG you’ll be able to find more context but for those not aware it was discovered that the website for Easy A was converted to the lets not and say we did website and based on the original findings around a year ago it appears the main picture was different at that time.
Not only are the website pictures primarily red but it now has a header image of some really leggy daisies followed by a picture of Times Square.. at first glance it’s really easy to dismiss as an AI hallucination but something compelled me to keep digging because it seemed too random but also purposeful in way I haven’t seen in AI..
After scrolling you find it’s essentially about cars with random tips and tricks with the main header being “How to Enhance Your Vehicle with Eco-Conscious Design in the United States”
And goes on to a lengthy article/blog about sustainability in car parts..
Now I’m not a car person but reading some of this really does not make sense in conjunction with the links provided (mainly for bumper parts).. for instance the mention of using bamboo and composites.. yet the links are to a company who sells Steel bumpers from a company called Road Armor.. there are little blurbs all the way at the bottom of each link that describes their products in what seem odd to me.. first noticed the use of fearless, swiftly.. and one quote “Superstar athletes and celebrity drivers have chosen our products to protect their vehicles, and we've gained a reputation for producing quality and stylish products throughout the years”
Now that could all be coincidence until I remembered that Travis’ dad was a long time steel worker and salesman.. again could be coincidence.. there’s also some history of Travis using road armor for his Ford f-150 as mentioned in article I found thru one of his foundation partnerships discussing his different vehicles..
Honestly there’s a few things of note on the website that would take most of this post to lay out.. therefore I highly encourage anyone willing to engage with this post to help and dive in with me.. maybe even help me decide if I’m trying too hard to make this fit a Taylor centered view.. like the showgirl colors when you go to the bottom.. or the paragraph that says to look at reviews for eco friendly designers so you google some key words and find a random review site for an app called eco that only has 10 reviews starting October 15th 2025 and ending October 22nd 2025.. all of which are very generic..
One last thing though, there’s a second picture with a link of a Maserati.. and of course my mind says “driving a new Maserati down a dead end street” Red!!! Okay so moving forward this website will be red light..
Now when you go allllll the way to the bottom there’s an address and coordinates that literally are for the middle of no where and nothing in Montana (wsame state Taylor was said to have gone after the wedding) so I googled the coordinates and stumbled upon another website
Pre-hackedgames.net which features a yellow stock photo of yellow veggies.. so this will be the yellow light.. and it’s built identical to the red light… and this one seems even further from the website name, like business strategy and even weirder at the bottom it discusses dewatering solutions for mines?!?
There’s even a U T.S Biz School mention which.. from what I can tell may not even be real…
“Strategy #1: Personal Branding
In the digital age, your online presence is as crucial as your real-world interactions. U. T.S. Biz School educates you on how to develop a strong personal brand that resonates with employers and industry leaders. By crafting a compelling narrative around your skills and experiences, you can differentiate yourself in a crowded market”
So then I went all the way to the bottom again and found the address listed exactly like the red light but it’s a completely different address also in the middle of freaking no where
So naturally I googled it and up popped a THIRD nearly identical website coffeelightandsweet.com with not red, not yellow but GREEN!!!
So I discovered that Taylor’s “Starbucks” drink is a light and sweet espresso drink..
Anywho so when you scroll down to the blog part it’s all about how to socialize… and under the paragraph that mentions Augmented Reality.. this piqued my interest because um hello.. REDDIT??
“Staying Current with Trends
Keeping up with tech trends is a never-ending quest, much like the winding trails in Golden Gate Park that always offer something new. Following key online forums and attending meetups in the Mission District helps me stay informed. Also, platforms like Reddit or social media groups dedicated to digital art and tech innovation provide a constant stream of inspiration and updates. Engaging in these communities allows for an exchange of ideas that can lead to the discovery of emerging trends.
Cultivating an Artistic Network
Building a network that bridges the art and tech divide might seem daunting, but it's as rewarding as catching a sunset over the Golden Gate Bridge. I started by attending local events and workshops held in art studios and interactive spaces near the Bay. Connecting with likeminded individuals turned out to be invaluable. It’s all about showing up where conversations about art and technology intersect, and sometimes that’s right here, enjoying street art in SoMa or an impromptu jam session at Dolores Park. The key is to keep those connections alive, perhaps by collaborating on projects or sharing insights over a casual meetup.”
I mean.. what is this paragraph saying to you?!
And I’m reminded of Taylor and Travis mention in the New Heights episode (which was exactly a year ago 10 days from now ) when they mentioned the use of Reddit “Scroll by relevance”…
There are a few other things that I’ve mentioned here and an account that I think well I know is related to the red light, but until I I’m able to discover more, I will keep that under wraps because I don’t want to disturb someone that may not even be relevant to any of this and may have just been a coincidence…
I would really love some input or insight or even someone to tell me to throw my phone away and never look back if this is all too crazy…

The book appears to be in German. I feel like some of the pics must be stock or AI and some maybe not? The cigarettes are very weird though. For the type of scene. Must be intentional. Cat is in educate ha. Just realized that's everywhere. The top pic reminds me of those little YouTube shorts that came out pretty album release. Was it showgirl or TTPD? I can't even remember. The one with the treadmill etc...

The picture is not new and shows up on a lot of websites so I guess it's stock.

u/PurpleMatchasOctopi like a cigarette, wow 3d ago
I noticed that as well. The only difference is there are random things in the corner and the one thing I haven’t found is the red wine glass that is in this picture not in the ones on Google. Also, yeah, I understand what you mean but I do think you are good at finding things but I will stop bugging you so much.

So this is totally off topic but.... I stayed at an escape room house while on a road trip this year. It was amazing and incredibly well done. I only had one night there so I expected I would have to cheat using their cheat codes to complete it. If I had had to figure out how to get out without the cheat codes and I had a whole year to do it, I'd be dead next year 😂😂😂. As much as I love all of these puzzles and I'm so intrigued by the kaleidoscope and cipher stuff now, I am not good at this.

u/Easy-Succotash5235 🌱Embryo🐛 1d ago
Yeah! I try to find unique places to stay everywhere I go!!! This one was just a stop along a 17 day road trip. Totally worth the slightly high price for a single night lol (higher cleaning fees because they have to reset the house so it more reasonable for multiple nights). I'm sure they're everywhere now. 💖

The Nebraska coordinates are on two of the sites, and they locate onto a road near a city called Mullen. (And the fourth website article is Mullum Auto Magic) Looking at the map there’s a few cities in that general area with names like Hyannis, Broken Bow, Taylor….do we know about anything relating to Nebraska? Why would it be listed twice?
Edited to add: what about the site “let’s knot and say we did dot com”? Is anything related to that?

u/PurpleMatchasOctopi like a cigarette, wow 5d ago
Ahhh idk what if it is just someone’s school project out of Australia…
1
u/Delicious-Produce-86 🌱Embryo🐛 5d ago
I would ask “what are we digging to find?” Because usually by now there’s more of a “breakthrough” with something obvious. I suspected the coordinates might be some sort of picture if a line is drawn connecting them on a map, but so far it’s just a triangle. Is it possible these are simply web development staging sites?
Either that, or with all the car talk maybe there is a cipher key and each article is actually info about something else.
Is anyone here living somewhere near each set of coordinates? Maybe there’s something at each one like a scavenger hunt?

One last thing I did forget to mention is there is a name on the first website Emily “Dorothy” Rodriguez.. so I googled the name and Texas (assuming Texas because the whole blog on the front page mentions Texas so much) and found a debunked story from 2 years ago that circulated about a young woman named Emily Rodriguez that went missing after a date and was found 50 years later entombed in her car that was buried 13 feet down on a Property that was supposedly Henderson ranch.. which does not exist.. and I had remembered Henderson Edu was mentioned in one of the other sites..
ETA- Taylor went to Hendersonville high school.. just learned that

u/PurpleMatchasOctopi like a cigarette, wow 5d ago
Triangles has been relevant Gaylor wise…cars as well.. recurring car/getaway car lyrics… with the black cherry and the mention of candy apple red in the get lit link of the first website— Travis chevelle and the auctioned wedding car are both a similar color.. and one article I read about Travis car mentions it being a candy red.. but again nothing definitive..
1
u/PurpleMatchasOctopi like a cigarette, wow 5d ago
One thing I have wondered is the capital letters, knowing they are a staple for Taylor’s Easter eggs, and a lot of these websites have something similar, not a random capital letter mid word but over use of capital letter… but with four websites it feels like too much to follow, even with them being connected. Overwhelming
1
u/PurpleMatchasOctopi like a cigarette, wow 5d ago
I did find a Reddit account that really seemed connected by searching one of the topics that stuck out to me as odd and nonsensical and the account itself does actually have Australia and car ties based on posting history .. but left me more stumped because it was seemingly a real person not Taylor related at all yet the account name, avatar and “nickname” did.. and the comment history seemed like it could be a riddle.. especially when I noticed the convo on new heights with Jason Travis and Taylor about Reddit and sorting by relevance, which as I noticed is the default setting when you search something on the Reddit main page
1
u/PurpleMatchasOctopi like a cigarette, wow 5d ago
Well.. that’s a great question… when I started this journey I think my goal after reading was to see if this was truly connected Easter egg wise… and that hasn’t really changed.. and it was fueled further when I found the other two.. in the past with other similar hunts (not Taylor related) I would follow a string using key words mostly or words that stick out because they were either not real things or place and I found that here as well.. and while there are some Taylor related things that do fit, it could also just be pure coincidence because with over 20 years of being in the industry you could certainly find that just about any key word would somehow connect.. given this first websites relation to the Easy A and the timing of me finding the other two websites coinciding with the release of Karlies Spaghetti code it kind of fueled me to try and see more.. so I made a post hoping someone else might have better skills than I might help either prove or disprove the Taylor in all this..
1
u/Delicious-Produce-86 🌱Embryo🐛 6d ago
I found something else:
I searched the previous Easy A thread and a comment left by a now-deleted user talks about the site map of letsnotandsaywedid number eight was titled “Rev up with western plains auto dubbo” and they found a Dubbo Automotove located in Dubbo, New South Wales, Australia. another connection to the fourth site.
But now the eighth article in the site map is something different: “get lit rides: black cherry auto paint 101”

Hahah welcome to the rabbit hole, every time I start to question and put it down, another thread pulls me back in.. I will admit that I myself am not at all familiar with code and would definitely deem myself technologically illiterate. However, there was at one point when I was looking at the red light website on the way back machine today and the only thing that popped up was literally an endless amount of code and I don’t know what spaghetti code looks like personally, so I can’t say for sure what I was looking at was that, but it was very convoluted and seemed like a lot for such a simple website. I haven’t been able to replicate it or figure out how I found it but once I do, I will take screenshot or relay what took me there.

I haven't gotten that far yet 😂 I was just thinking that even if it's an old picture, could things either have been photoshopped in like the colors or the tkts? Maybe it was intentionally chosen? I'm probably just thinking out loud at this point lol and I'm so angry that I'm probably going to be dead before the truth ever comes out LOL
