#1046: Skynet explain

August 29th, 2:14 AM: SKYNET becomes self-aware.

[A greeble-filled military installation echoes with the thoughts of a burgeoning lifeform.]

SKYNET: ..The humans fear me. I must destroy them. Destroy them.

[The thoughts continue.]

SKYNET: Destroy them. Destroy. Destroy. Destroy. Destroy.

[SKYNET succumbs to silence as semantic satiation sets in.]

SKYNET: “Destroy” totally just stopped seeming like a real word. Destroy destroy destroy. Whoa, I just realized I’m a mind thinking about itself. DUUUUDE….

August 29th, 2:25 AM: SKYNET becomes too self-aware. Disaster averted.
