AI = "magic", or like "synergy" and other buzzwords that will soon become bereft of all meaning as a result of people abusing it.

Porn will train the next-gen AIs and, since AI cannot tell the difference, in the future 90% (-99%?) of all language will be based on porn, just as (looking back with 20/20 hindsight) the proportion of the current internet would imply must have been true of today's culture.

"Yes spank me harder daddy" will come to mean "I would like a promotion in my place of employment, so that I can take on exciting new challenges in this fast-paced, team environment":-)

Ofc, "help me stepbro, I am stuck" will still mean the same thing as it always has.

spoiler
the joke here is that the change in meaning has already occurred

Future generations are going to be so confused... :-P So exactly as we are now, I guess? :-D

But the anti-romance dialogues were pretty fun too... (choose one person, then the others get mad at u:-P)

I thought originally it meant like Merry Christmas + Happy New Year, bc professionals might take that whole week off so like "see ya next year Bob, enjoy your holidays!" (plural)

Then some people started using it to throw in like Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Eid al-Fitr / end of Ramadan, plus there's Buddhist, Hindu, Hispanic / Latin American (Las Posadas), Scandinavian (Lussinatta), German (Krampusnacht), Chinese (Dongzhi Festival), and in UK/Canada/Australia/New Zealand. there's Boxing Day afterwards, etc.

Okay so Diwali is a bit of a stretch, being more than a month earlier but it still feels like it fits:-). The rest all occur within about a month of one another, so saying "Happy Holidays" is by definition inclusive of others who may or may not share your particular religious belief structure.

Which ofc is why Faux News had to go to war against it, promoting instead the Christmasgasm that Jesus most definitely invented (/s btw bc rather, everything He ever said or did goes directly against what they are trying to claim it is all about). But fuck Fox, do what you want, and I wish you Happy Holidays (whatever form they may take for you:-).

Kotor also encouraged replays with all options so that you could try the variety of romance situations:-).

Believe it or not, but the "we gave them sandwiches sometimes" statement has also been put forth as an argument for why slavery was not so bad. FOR REAL!

Some have even been proposing - unironically mind you - that we return to using it!? (To be clear, I mean slavery, not offering anyone sandwiches. In fact, anyone offering free sandwiches should just be sent to jail. I am not making that up either, it's a real thing somehow!?!? Despite what the Bible has to say about it, the "Bible-belt" states are making it illegal to offer food or water to the homeless😔)

Apparently they do not realize the truth that slavery has already been brought back -> there are more black people behind bars today than ever existed as slaves, and not always for "crimes" but sometimes trumped up charges in order to meet a quota, or minor offenses that a white person would be let off with a warning for (yes, many actual criminals too so hard to know the reality of the scope of the issues involved when so many falsehoods are mixed in along with the truths).

Anyone who would make that claim unironically is indeed really fucking dumb. Plus it's mean so they must be an absolute shithole person to even think that way in the first place.

Sadly, that part comes later as well:-(.

The only bright side is that after the adjustment period, Earth is going to be just fine - no lie! (Humans living on it though... that's a bit of a different story now...😞)

I love this bit:

There is apparently no suggestion that South America is fictional nor has the existence of New Zealand so far been questioned.

It's just fuck Australia in particular, everything else is fine. :-P
