The Voice Of Our Mechanical Future
[Beep!] I'm sorry you're going to have to go back through the metal detector, and while you're at it, take off all your clothes. All right, walk through. [Beep!] Pass me the new handheld metal detector, will you officer……Thanks. You; stand right here please. [Beep! Beep!] Initialize eye scan. [Scanning complete.] Initialize head scan. [Beep! Scanning complete.] Place your left hand on the laser please. Now your right hand.
[Beep!] One officer winks at the other and said's: "Yes! It's Affirmative!" Well; that’s about it. Let us conduct a full body scan again and then we'll wrap this up. Stretch out your arms and spread your legs. [Beep! Beep!] All right, you can put all your clothes back on. When you're done. Go down the hallway where the red lights are and take escalator number six, going down. When you get to the end of the escalator, go to room six; there you'll meet
someone ready to help you, sitting right at the front desk. (Okay, thank you officer.) {Minutes later.} Hi, welcome to our new company bank, Minddex Incorporated. We're building your future. How can I help you? (I need to make a withdrawal from my account. I need 123 one-dollar bills, 456 five-dollar bills, 60 ten-dollar bills, 6 twenty-dollar bills and 21 hundred-dollar bills.) Withdrawals are done at station six over there to the left. I'll send your
request over there for you. (Okay, Thanks.) {A minute later} Step up please. Good morning, how may I help you? (Umm?) Oh, wait, I just received your request on the computer. In order to make a withdrawal of any magnitude; you must have our new Minddex chip fully installed in your system in your right hand or forehead. Do you have the chip? (Yes, I do) Where? (I had the chip implanted in my right hand and underneath my foreheads skin so that
no matter what happens, I'll always have access to my money.) Great! Well I hope you enjoy the convenience of our new system. It's quick, easy, reliable, and fully secure against any fraud and identity theft, and we only need to scan one of the chips; so lean forward and place your head exactly above the red laser beam please, so that I can verify that the chip is there. [Beep!] Okay, the chip has been verified. I'm now processing your request in our
system. When you see the red light come on at one of those ATMs over there to your left, place your hand on the laser beam and your withdrawal data will be transferred to your chip. (Okay, Thanks) {One minute later.} [Flash! Beep!] Have a nice day. (You too.) {Later, on Jokey and Attentive's TV {Tell A Vision!} [Breaking News: Hi, I'm Ms. Oylup Alane, coming to you live from Hellgate Street. There was a major propane explosion outside
of Minddex Incorporated this morning a little after 6AM. After firefighters desperately fought to put the flames out, which were rapidly spreading down Hellgate Street, almost reaching around the corner to Wearasygn Avenue, crossing Hydamark Boulevard. A body was found outside of M.I. burned beyond recognition. Medics say, they can't tell whether the body is male or female. Police say, they don't know whether this was a crime or a freak
accident. Over to you Takilya Waters. Thank you Oylup Alane. Investigators found two small mechanisms inside the chest cavity of the correlated body. Ironically, the two small mechanisms were in perfect condition. They say that the two small mechanisms were previously located in the forehead and right hand of the victim. No word on how the mechanisms relocated to penetrate the heart! And It's over to you Mr. Bawss Sygn. And thank you
Takilya! Symbols that appear to be foreign to mankind were inscribed on the two small mechanical chips. Later, scientists will study the chips and try to find out what these symbols read! Police and investigators say, there is no evidence pointing to what caused the explosion! And, that's it for now. Coming to you live from trisix news channel 666. Have a good evening!] {Viewers- Jokey and Attentive: (Attentive: Wow! I feel sorry for that poor
person. Jokey: Burned to a crisp! Attentive: Yeah, just another Jane or John Doe! [Commercials: Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding! Minddex. "Building your future!" Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding! 2 people found dead on Thurdstryke Road! Later tonight on trisix news!] Jokey: Hey! What the hell does M.I. mean anyway? Attentive: Stupid! Weren't you paying attention? It means Minddex Incorporated! Duh!!!!!! Jokey: Oh sh!! It does!
Attentive: Don't speak to me stupid! Jokey: Don't call me stupid! I thought it meant Military Intelligence genius! Attentive: M.I. stands for that also. Wow! You're not so stupid after all. Sorry about that. Jokey: Ah, it's cool stupid! Attentive & Jokey: HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA! Attentive: Listen! You know Minddex Incorporated announced 6 days ago that they were going to have a grand opening today! Jokey: No, what's today? Attentive:
Damn! You don't pay attention to anything, do you? Look at your calendar! Jokey: June 6. So! Attentive: So, we're in year 2666! Jokey: So! Attentive: So get a clue egg head, and put that cigarette out. Jokey: Oh my God! I see what you're getting at! Attentive: Oh my God is right! Jokey: Id say, hell is feeding right now! Attentive: Id say, you're right! Jokey & Attentive: HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, HA! {Attentive goes into the kitchen to get a drink out of
the fridge and hears frantic coughing in the living room!} Attentive shouts: Jokey! What the hell is wrong with you? You need to stop smoking those cigarettes! {No answer! He comes back into the living room to find his best friend dead!} Crying, Attentive screams franticly: "Oh my God! Wake up! Wake up! Jokey! Wake up!" {And then he calls the police. The police and medics rush to Attentive and Jokey's house, only to discover both of them
dead on their living room floor in front of their television! Later at the coronary, A coroner examining the body discovered that Jokey died from choking on a cigarette and Attentive died from a rare poison extracted from the aluminum metal interior of a dented beer can.} The coroner gets a cell phone call: [ The metal you found. It's reported to be produced by M.I.!] {The coroner shouts: (Which M. I.!) }And a new voice saids: [The other's were like
blown out candlesticks. Congratulations you're candle 6!] {Then the phone clicks 4 times and starts flashing red. A whisper is heard all around the coroners head and he thinks he's going insane!!!!!!} (Welcome to the voice of our mechanical future where killing's almost instant!!!!!!) [Click! Click!] BOOOOOOM!!!!!!
