I have often reported my observations that people are doing stuff because of some purpose beyond rational comprehension
Recently, I started thinking that I am seeing people doing stuff because of their conventional, nefarious conspiracy
And I think about that again today
Then I also think: I rarely see people doing anything
I think also: how many other people could make these observations? The line of sight and locations
It's very clever so I must give in and make a note about some of it
The progress of this note does not match the cognitive process in my mind to assemble and develop this content of this note

Wait, hold on. It is actually possible to meet any celebrity you want.
FRY
It is?
LEELA
Of course! You should read a blimp sometime.

This is your fuckup, Bernie.
Only seems fair.
Ford: So our creatures have been misbehaving, and you haven't yet isolated the bug? That's so unlike you, Bernard.
Unless, of course, you have and are simply embarrassed by the result.
It's the code you added, sir.
The reveries.
It has some
"Mistakes" is the word you're too embarrassed to use.
You ought not to be.
You're a product of a trillion of them.
Evolution forged the entirety of sentient life on this planet using only one tool The mistake.
I flattered myself we were taking a more disciplined approach here.
I suppose self-delusion is a gift of natural selection as well.
Indeed it is.
But, of course, we've managed to slip evolution's leash now, haven't we? We can cure any disease, keep even the weakest of us alive, and, you know, one fine day perhaps we shall even resurrect the dead.
Call forth Lazarus from his cave.

FRY
Download a celebrity from the internet? What part of that do I understand?
LEELA
It's simple. You can download a celebrity's personality and appearance into a blank robot.
FRY
Hey, I have an idea. Let's do that!

But, of course, we've managed to slip evolution's leash now, haven't we? We can cure any disease, keep even the weakest of us alive, and, you know, one fine day perhaps we shall even resurrect the dead.
Call forth Lazarus from his cave.
Do you know what that means? It means that we're done.
That this is as good as we're going to get.
It also means that you must indulge me the occasional mistake.
(Groans) About three liters.
That's how much blood I left in you.
Lose more than that, you die.
But for now, you're mine.
I'm gonna get some answers out of you.
(Gurgles) (laughs) Where are you (laughs) (coughing) What do you want? You know about games, don't you, Kissy? Well, this is a complicated one.
I don't play.
I only deal.
Who said anything about you playing? You're livestock, scenery.
I play.
The others, they just come here to get their rocks off, shoot a couple Indians.
But there's a deeper level to this game.
You're gonna show me how to get there.
A lot of wisdom in ancient cultures.
And perhaps it's time to dig deeper into yours.
