Current story arc: Idiocraception – chapter: History on the Skew
Steve: I bet they have a saying here: “a brick a day keeps the doctor's pay.”
Alana: Their economy seems based on deliberately breaking and repairing things. No wonder this all feels less futuristic than I expected; they are running in circles.
Steve: I think rather in a spiral, towards certain doom.
Alana: What's your opinion as marketeer about this, Adil?
Adil: It all sucks.
Alana: Well, I guess that about sums it up. Anyhow, I'd like to see the section about this “event” thing.
Alfred: It is right here, in the next hall.
A hall is shown with a large sign reading “The Event”, filled with various objects, a significant part of which are what seem to be destroyed server racks.
Max: Well, for once they managed to correctly spell the sign.
Heidi: That looks like the remains of a data center over there…
