My wife treated me to a very nice Cyberdyne Systems t-shirt as a consolation prize for wrecking the Nieuport, so I wore it today.

I was in WalMart and this older lady said, "Oh, Cyberdyne! My son Tom worked there! Come here, Tom!"

So her thirty something year old son comes over, wondering what's going on, and she goes on, saying "Look, Tom, he worked at Cyberdyne, too!"

"Hey, Tom, long time!" I immediately say, "I'm Frank, and you probably don't remember me because I did a lot of off-site testing. Help me out, did you work in the robotics or AI laboratories?"

"Network communications," he shoots back, shaking my hand like he recognizes me, "I though you looked familiar."

"Shame about the company, though," I continued, "If they'd of worked the bugs out, their products would have changed the world."

"Yep," Tom replies, trying to keep a straight face, "but they still might someday."

"Well, good seeing you, but I gotta run," I begged off and went on my way.

I want a Tyrell Corporation t-shirt that says "more human than human: that is our motto".

You need to wear it to a Big Bang Theory convention.

One of the finishing touches to the repairs on the Nieuport will be two corporate decals:

Aperture Science and the Umbrella Corporation.

Both are on their way via Amazon.

My plane (if I had one) would have Fontaine Futuristics and Ryan Industries decals.

Bah, nobody ever considered themselves a corporate citizen at a firm like that.*

Plus, I doubt you worked there; rumor has it you barely interviewed.

* Corporate citizenship. It's a thing large companies talk about. Seriously.

If I'm to be a citizen of a corporation, they better make stuff that is lethal. When the Corporate Wars begin, I do not want to be on the side of Vandelay, facing killer robots, portal guns, and zombie viruses with nothing but a realistically modeled dildo with which to defend myself.

I work for the Spacing Guild, but I'm just one of those blokes that mop up the . . . er, liquid that comes out of the spice tank. Kind of like people in olden Earth times who scooped up horse poop from the streets.


The issue is not p*ssy. The issue is monkey.

I am the quintessential corporate outsider. I work outside the system from the inside.

What's it like being bald and wearing a black garbage bag?
