Philosophy dropout and self-proclaimed synthesist. Handle with care.

"Simon, why you no install Popular Messaging App, like all normal people?" โ€” "You misspelled 'corporation food'".

"Okay, aside from world peace and defeating entropy, what do you want *for you personally?*"

"I'm way past the age you need a computer 'just for studying'. I openly admit that i bought my computer for games and porn; And i'm proud to declare that i'm indeed using it for its intended purpose!"

"[...] Phase two is when your own government becomes akin to an ongoing natural disaster you can only ever hope to try working around."

"What do you mean, you won't send me those documents through an-insecure-communication-channel? What's the big deal? It's only everything-a-crook-needs-to-commit-all-manner-of-fraud!"

"There is no 'my kind'. I'm not with any group, clique of faction. I am an individual, who deserves, and, indeed, has the right to be treated and judged on his own merits, based solely on the content of his character."

"It's five in the evening, and i Have Yet To; Anyone who wants anything from me can go Deal With It!"

I heard it was a military intelligence building that was also housing the news. A pretty pragmatic use of space, methinks.

"I had a long conversation with myself the other day. Truth be told, it was rather one-sided."

"You dis me, but you do it without respect."

Say, can anyone lend me about ten grand? I promise to pay you back once inflation reduces it to one.

"Let's compromise! You get zilch, we give you nothing, and everybody is happy!"

"I will change the world, or get rich trying!"

On the Internet, nobody, except 4 international megacorporations, 5 intelligence agencies and 68 advertisement firms, knows you're a dog.

"You are aware, of course, that your actions constitute a violation of intergalactic law?..." โ€” "I am aware of no such thing!"

Two worries have i when i need to send someone an email: that the recipient thinks "What's up with this idiot", and that Google quarantines the email for some ineffable reason. That both of those things are almost entirely outside of my control doesn't make it any easier.

Turns out i can walk almost at full speed with a full cup of tea without spilling a drop. This has got to be one of the most mundane superpowers i'm aware of.

"I don't have a ready answer to this question; But, i believe i can synthesize something acceptable in a couple hours."

"Why don't you believe in the supernatural?" โ€” "Because it wastes energy and has the potential to backfire."

"Technically speaking, you paid someone money to strip you of your privacy. Life is weird."
