Support NeoGAF

[mango drank]

We're clearly living in some bizarro alternate-history version of where we're supposed to be. The endless pandemic, weird politics for the last decade+, social media radicalizing everyone, a new console/GPU generation with the least available stock ever, people's lives jacked etc.

What do you think is going on on Earth Prime right now? What is You Prime up to? (Besides already playing Metroid Prime 4.)

 

[Maiden Voyage]

Prime me is shitposting on NeoGaf

 

[Sidney Prescott]

I like to think they are all watching a new season of Black Mirror and we are all starring in it.

Citizen, return to your Prime Home immediately, enjoy your Prime Steak. Alexa will arrange a vehicle to collect you. Your wellbeing is our Prime concern.

Your blood pressure is elevated, relaxation is recommended. Goop candles have been ordered, as part of your next Prime delivery.

What makes you think that stability is normal OP? Most of the time shit is chaotic and shitty. The last 70 years were a fluke

 

[dave_d]

I come from a reality where the average person can correctly pass and execute a turn while driving a car. Your world is strange. Either that or I'm a vastly powerful reality warper that's being doing all this crazy shit to annoying the hell out of myself and everybody else for no particular reason.

Its just the first steps before the chinese overlords take over and put all those lizard, deer or whatever people into re edducation camps

A wild-eyed scientist and a kid knocked on my door this morning, and asked frantically for help getting back to "their timeline." I thought the world they described sounded pretty boss, right as I knocked them both unconscious with a pipe and locked them in my basement. In a minute I'm gonna go take a look inside the weird car they asked for fuel for, parked right outside.

Prime world is a honk free zone

Prime me is Playing Sonic 7 on his SEGA BD game system before he teleports to one of the many arcades that exist on almost every corner to meet up with friends because the internet is stuck in the early 90s while everything else has advanced well beyond our 2021.

 

[Tesseract]

space prison = dark side of the moon ... ?

 

[teezzy]

I bet my evil twin sucks a lot more toes than I do

 

[Phunkydiabetic]

I bet I have neogaf gold in the other timeline

 

[GAMETA]

In the prime timeline we wouldn't be posting here... they have way less shitty threads

 

[BigBooper]

Main me is probably sitting in a cubicle, waiting on being able to get home and eat some spaghetti.



Side note kinda... I'm not Catholic, but I think the widespread breakdown of trust in the US Roman Catholic church in the 80s and 90s started us down this path. People need a moral compass.

 

[levyjl1988]

I really want the unveiling of alien invasion comes to fruition, but society is slowly going back to normal, I mean Democrats are back in power, so relationships will be mended and the virus, well shit that will continue for the next 10 years.

 

[triplestation]

i cant wait for PMDG 737 to come to flight simulator

LOL@people who think we are living in bad times.

That's precisely the problem.though, isn't it?

We have the easiest, most luxurious, free and privileged lives of any humans in all of history. Even homeless people can expect a higher standard of living than most members of our species through history suffered through, and the average Joe, working class, wage slave has more luxuries, free time and hedonistic opportunities than 99% of recorded histories Kings and rulers.

And that's driving us insane.

We need the struggle. We deeply, instinctively, crave problems to overcome. It's how we conquered the planet and overcame every hardship that nature, or we ourselves, could come up with.

So instead we destroy ourselves and create meaningless conflicts with one another over stupid, imagined slights.

So in a non crazy, 'Prime' timeline, we're probably colonising the moon, mining asteroids, exploring the ocean, all growing our own food, exercising regularly, basically aware of our inbuilt stupidity and have thus given ourselves personal challenges, that stave off the self destructive madness lying in all our hearts.

My grandfather was a coal miner, who spent most of his life in darkness to feed his wife and six children. When he wasn't fighting in WWII with a chance of getting killed every few days.

I am living like millionaire compared to this.
And I guess most people here do.

The first Matrix is such a amazingly insightful film, even more so given that the behaviour of the two people primarily responsible for it, have since proven time and time again to have made it so purely by accident.

 

[MilkyJoe]

What I think... In the tiniest of nutshells

Another SARS virus came out of China.

WHO said no worries on this one

China calls Tedros Adhanom and says, change that to pandemic and we'll give you a few quid and won't kill your family.

WHO screams LOCKDOWN

World locks up

Western society goes broke

China makes money

The true danger (or lack there of) of the virus comes to light

Wester governments continue the charade to the end to save face and avoid democide charges

I think it was heavily script doctored to make sense to a wide audience, once it was a success they were given free reign on the sequels. We know how it worked out.

That's what happens when bullshit isn't called out.

Pretty sure the matrix was never meant to a trilogy, only a stand alone film

Wait, Mindhunter season what?! Where dou you live? We just had season 2 in my country.

Great show!

Just imagine being stuck in a parallel universe where Neogaf turned into a crazy mental ill leftist paradies like forum.......

.....ohhh shit.

 

[Bonfires Down]

Just the natural consequence of egoistic people who have lost faith in religion and are grasping onto any straws to make their lives meaningful. I’m not saying that religion is always preferable but it’s obvious that most people need something of that ilk to stay sane.

I had to google that. I really thought that I missed 2 seasons. You cheeky bastard.

 

[Majima Everywhere System]

The celebrities are all still alive. Everytime this universe loses one, I am shocked and shaking, and it really just adds to the burdens I face. RIP

 

[Alter_Fridge]

Ask these two

I like to think they are all watching a new season of Black Mirror and we are all starring in it.

That is a bloody depressing thought.

I like the idea of a timeline where Nolan gets told to fucking rein it in a bit.

It's best not to think of Tenet as a movie per se, but more of something along the lines of a live action thought experiment

Is the experiment about how far you can push the logic of a narrative before you really start to annoy people?

LOL@people who think we are living in bad times.

You have a point. As an introvert, I have basically been praised for just doing what I normally would anyways which is just staying at home 90% of the time. 2020 was actually one of my more relaxed years despite all the shit going on. I am glad to be someone who can go without social interaction for a long time.

 

[Musky_Cheese]

Well Juan Soto still exists, Nationals still won the World Series in 2019, Luke Skywalker got his moment, still have my life and family, guns and ammo...

Isn’t this reality as good as it gets?

 

[Kev Kev]

crazy shit
