71 - Drunk but hiding it quite well.

Brothers, Sisters, how much do you think happens in a year? I mean, things-- things just pass you by, don't they? Even if a celebrity dies it's only news for a few weeks, a month and a half at the most and then everyone's distracted by whatever else is happening. Once they've been dead for a whole year? It's like, a completely different world. Everything's changed. Even if they were still alive everything would be different and so would they be.

They'd be forever confined to a separate dimension of "when they were famous", and "best of the 20's", and they'd only ever get work as a novelty act.

A years a really long time in the real world. You miss it and then its just gone. Ater a year you're all rotted away anyway. Comrades, Consumers, consider the concept of "vintage".

Or... something.

I don't think we had anything that special in the Factory. It was just a lot of unimportant things that kept the one important thing from ever going away.

And what thing was this?

The Factory itself.

prefect, your worldview is offensive. D:

...you are unimportant, but this 'Factory' is not? You are not an ant, fratello, to be thinking this way.

The Pavi thinks you are very special.

Sorry Pavi.

Comrade, that whole, "you're all special for being yourselves" stuff is just a lie we tell Betas and Deltas to make them work harder.

I appreciate you saying it, but Alpha plusses don't need motivating to work hard. Thank you anyway.
