This was originally typed in the Epic PM. It's being put here as well.
It's 3:27am and i'm still in university, working. I can hear students getting back from whatever shit club they went to and they are drunkenly singing in the car park. I hate them more than I could ever possibly articulate. I am the only one here in this room, on the fourth floor of this office building, sitting at a computer and trying to figure out why this fucking arm IK has been parented to the shoulder control of this stupid fucking rig. It has taken me 3 hours already and I am no closer to completing my work, which means I am no closer to going home, which means I will probably end up sleeping here, in this room. Except I drank 2 cans of redbull on the way here so I guess I wont be sleeping anywhere at all, for a few hours at least. Everything on the screen might as well be binary. I'm clicking through facebook, giantbomb, twitter, facebook, giantbomb, twitter, facebook - and with each click there are no significant updates, no meaningful progressions. It's all just blank, like watching this video on mute
As you are watching it you can't help but feel like it's doing something slightly sinister to your brain, and then when a real youtube ad actually pops up on the screen it startles you and you realize that it's all true and you really are living in some warped hypnotic trance where you are actually being controlled by forces beyond your very comprehension.
I feel like I want to scrub my brain with a brillo pad.
End.
