#1046: Skynet

Skynet

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.

Alternately..

Someone slipped LSD into SKYNET’s programming. Damn programmers.]]

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.
