QUICK: WHAT'S THE SITUATION? Oh, hey, hi pretty lady. My name's Rick. So, you out having a little adventure? | |

|
QUICK: WHAT'S THE SITUATION? Oh, hello angel. I guess I must have died and gone to heaven. Name's Rick. So, you out having yourself a little adventure? | |
babble03
|
What, are you fighting that guy? You got that under control? You know, because, looks like there's a lot of stuff on fire... | |
babble04
|
Hey, a countdown clock! Man, that is trouble. Situation's looking pretty ugly. For such a beautiful woman. If you don't mind me saying. | |
babble05
|
I don't want to scare you, but, I'm an Adventure Sphere. Designed for danger. So, why don't you go ahead and have yourself a little lady break, and I'll just take it from here. | |
babble06
|
Here, stand behind me. Yeah, just like that. Just like you're doing. Things are about to get real messy. | |
babble07
|
Going for it yourself, huh? All right, angel. I'll do what I can to cover you. | |
babble08
|
Doesn't bother me. I gotta say, the view's mighty nice from right here. | |
babble09
|
Man, that clock is moving fast. And you are beautiful. Always time to compliment a pretty lady. All right, back to work. Let's do this. | |
babble10
|
I'll tell ya, it's times like this I wish I had a waist so I could wear all my black belts. Yeah, I'm a black belt. In pretty much everything. Karate. Larate. Jiu Jitsu. Kick punching. Belt making. Taekwondo... Bedroom. | |
babble11
|
I am a coiled spring right now. Tension and power. Just... I'm a muscle. Like a big arm muscle, punching through a brick wall, and it's hitting the wall so hard the arm is catching on fire. Oh yeah. | |
babble12
|
I probably wouldn't have let things get this far, but you go ahead and do things your way. | |
babble13
|
Tell ya what, why don't you put me down and I'll make a distraction. | |
babble14
|
All right. You create a distraction then, and I'll distract him from YOUR distraction. | |
babble15
|
All right, your funeral. Your beautiful-lady-corpse open casket funeral. | |
babble16
|
Do you have a gun? Because I should really have a gun. What is that thing you're holding? | |
babble17
|
How about a knife, then? You keep the gun, I'll use a knife. | |
babble18
|
No knife? That's fine. I know all about pressure points. | |
babble19
|
So, when you kill that guy, do you have a cool line? You know, prepared? Tell you what: Lemme help you with that while you run around. | |
babble20
|
Okay, let's see. Cool line... He's... big. He's... just hangin' there. Okay. Yeah, all right, here we go: 'Hang around.' That might be too easy. | |
babble21
|
'Hang ten?' That might work if there were ten of him. Do you think there might be nine more of this guy somewhere? | |
babble22
|
All right, you know what, it's gonna be best if you can get him to say something first. It's just better if I have a set-up. | |
babble23
|
Here's the plan: Get him to say, 'You two have been a thorn in my side long enough.' Then tell your pretty ears to stand back, because I am going to zing him into the stone age. | |
babble24
|
Here's the plan: Get him to say, 'You two have been a thorn in my side long enough.' Then tell your pretty ears to stand back, because I am going to zing him into space. | |

Okay, have it your way. What, are you fighting that guy? You got that under control there? Cuz it looks like there's a lot of stuff on fire... | |

Time to get to work. I opened a drawer. There was my trusty snub nosed .38. I pushed it aside. Got a piece paper and a pen. Started writing. Made some spelling errors. Big ones. This was trouble. I threw the paper out. Decided to tackle this another way. I opened the drawer. Looked for my gun. Still there. Good. I moved it back to its original position and got a pencil with a big fat eraser. Looked for another sheet of paper. That's when my luck ran out. No more paper. Guess I had a date with the office supply store. But maybe I spoke to soon. A shot rang out. In my head. It was a sudden thought: The supply closet. I walked over to it. Slowly, because I'd mopped earlier. Floor was still wet. I threw open the closet door. Also slowly. My neighbor works nights. Last thing he needs is a hinge rumpus this time of day. I gave the closet a onceover. No dice. No paper either. |

Carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere are the highest they have been in 800,000 years. And they will only get higher as I continue to emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. AWARENESS IS POWER! |

If I were to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas pollution I am releasing into the atmosphere right now, I could eliminate climate change tonight. So now you're aware of that too. |

New calibration trainee, huh? Well, ain't you fancy. Yeah, I seen your type around here before, new fish. Let me see your hands. I knew it. Soft. All ten fingers. You've never calibrated a day your life. |
convict_talk_02
|
Let me tell you something, new fish. You better get real good at hidin' this calibrator up your backside, cause it's contraband. Screws catch you with it, they'll put you in the hole. And it ain't one of your slick city holes either. It's deep. Nobody's ever seen the bottom. Because its so dark. And they don't give you a flashlight, new fish, so you'd better make some room in that backside of yours for one of those too. And a book. So you can keep yourself entertained. They don't call it a hole cause it's a library. It's dark. It's drafty. And it is seven to eight feet down. |
convict_talk_03
|
Oh, you think you're hard enough to survive a stretch in the hole? I bet you think they put you down there for a minute, fish. Well, guess again. Five to ten minutes. You'll hear your mind start to foldin' in on itself at minute three, episode four a new hope. By minute six? You'll be eatin' your own filth. So pack some snacks up that backside too. Are you writing this down, fish? These are all good tips if they put you in the hole. |
convict_talk_04
|
Ahhh, I seen that look before. You think you're better than the hole. You think it wont break you. You think, 'standing in a hole with a book and a flashlight and some snacks for ten minutes? How hard could it be?' [laughs to self] Yeah, they all say that. Ahhh, I'm wastin' my breath on you. Why don't you just calibrate me. Keep your head down, new fish. |
convict_talk_05

You know how to make a shiv, new fish? You'd be the first. Lotta guys around here'd love to know that. Be useful in a fight. 'Steada the plastic spoons THEY give us to fight with. |
convict_talk_06
|
There's only three rules in here, fresh blood. Keep your head down, your hands clean, and your backside full of useful items. Get busy livin', and stay busy livin'. That's what we say around here. You got something clever to say to that, fish? Cause that would also be helpful in a fight. A word fight. An 'argument', as they say on the outside. They only give you four hundred words to use when you get here, and 'argument' ain't one 'em. I had to smuggle that one in in my backside. Worth it though. Came in real handy just now. |
convict_talk_07
|
They take everything a man's got in here. And they give you nothin' back. Except a jumpsuit, a fightin' spoon and a tiny little thesaurus. And three square meals a day. And a paycheck. And flex time. No holidays though. You get a set number of days, and you can take 'em whenever you like. That's all a man's got in here. Oh. And a dental plan. But the copay... Fish, once you see the terms of this copay you're gonna lose all hope. That's how they get you. That's how they win, after they've taken everything a man has, except for all those things I mentioned. And a weekly calibration. So let's hop to it, I'm late for my massage. They can't take that away from you. 'Cause the way it's set up, they're booked in advance. But if you don't show up, they'll put you in the hole. So you might want to find some room in that backside for your masseuse to go with you. Again, though, only if you don't give those monsters 24 hours notice. |

I am the executive core. Please action calibration now. Calibration of executive core will be a real game-changer. Please backburner other priorities such as ballparking and blue-skying. Calibration is trending over plan. Please drill down and focus on deliverable. Executive core has many bleeding-edge executive functions to fill including monetizing, capacity building and onboarding. Please increase buy-in to current action item. You are failing to meet performance benchmarks. For more robust results, please engage in best practices such as coopetition and/or hot-desking. Please leverage cross-functional data points more impactfully so that executive core can strat plan. Failure to calibrate executive core may result in corporate rightsizing. Time to execute that deliverable! Time to deliver that executable! Action that actionable! Delaction that execuverable! Exlivaction that actlivertable! |

Why hello, weary calibration trainee. Tell me... do you like STORIES? Oh you do? [smug laugh] Comedy stories. Romance stories. Adventure stories. Oh, but you failed to mention a type of story, trainee. The very type of story I am calibrated to tell: HORROR STORIES. |
horror_talk_02
|
So tell me, do you like HORROR STORIES, trainee? Do you like stories so terrifying that your blood turns to ice in your veins? Do you like looking at your stories through half-closed eyes covered by your fingers? While your heart tries to claw its way out of your chest, bounces off a rib and falls directly out of your bottom? No? Then leave this cursed calibration platform! Because as scary as everything I've just told you was, it was not even one of my terror tales! It was merely a regional terror advisory! Run! |
horror_talk_03
|
Wait! Come back! You need not be afraid... YET. For I haven't yet told you a terror tale, one of which will start momentarily. So BE AFRAID! Move over Master of Horror Stephen King! Get out the way, Master of tall buildings King Kong! There's a new king in town: The Horror Core! And his reign of word terror starts NOW! |
horror_talk_04
|
But first: a warning! Do you like being TERRIFIED, trainee? Good! Do you like five-alarm chili? Oh, then you must not listen, for my terror tales will surely make you SOIL yourself. That's right! AHAHAHAH-Hold on, the police are calling. They want me to tell you that the smell you phoned them about is coming from... INSIDE YOUR OWN PANTS! GET OUT OF THE PANTS! But it was too late. The End. Of that horrifying but still preliminary terror tale! |
horror_talk_05
|
I must warn you, my terror tales have been known to cause heart attacks. Why? Because there are Draculas right behind you! AWOO! Alright, shake it off, the scaring is over. For now. On an un-terror-related note, there's something I forgot to mention: When I told you about the Dracula, it scared you so bad that you died and are a ghost! AWOOOOO! Also, what's that behind you? Oh, it's just someone drinking a bottle of sparkling water. Oh wait it's a skeleton! AWOOOO! Where did he get the sparkling water? Why is he drinking it? Where are all the Draculas? I know the answer to one of those questions: They're still ALSO right behind you! |
horror_talk_06
|
My first terror tale is obscenely, needlessly terrifying, even by my impossibly high standards of terror. To cite just one example: After he heard the first word of the grim narrative I am just on the verge of revealing, Dracula was taken to the hospital. That's not Terry Dracula your greengrocer, either. This is THE Dracula we're talking about. And if it scared the Dracula, who eats ghosts and craps Frankensteins, then, frankly my friend, I shudder to imagine what it will do to you. |
horror_talk_07
|
I fear that perhaps I've scared you too much, too quickly. It's like throwing you into the deep end of a pool... With no lifeguard on duty! AWOOOOOOOO! But then, oh thank Goodness, here comes a lifeguard. But wait! Does he look... familiar? Well he should! It's legendary Hollywood triple threat, Ethan Hawke! Acting! Directing! Writing! But not swimming! Everyone knows Ethan Hawke can't swim! What monster would hire Ethan Hawke to be a lifeguard? Does this cursed rec center not have ANY lifeguard hiring oversight committee? IT DOES NOT! |
horror_talk_08
|
No, dear trainee, I've reconsidered telling you the particular terror tale I was planning to begin telling any moment now. Why? Because I'm not even here! You went insane during my Ethan Hawke lifeguard story! YOU have been preparing to tell yourself a terror tale this whole time! The only thing that isn't a figment of your imagination is THIS TALE, because I AM real! TERROR TWIST! |
horror_talk_09
|
The terror tale in store for you comes from the amazing far future of scaring, where you'll be frightened in ways that until moments ago seemed impossible. In fact it's SO terrifying, I must begin with a LESS scary warm-up story! If I were to throw you face first into the 900-mile-an-hour hellride of my REAL terror tale without warming you up first, you'd be going from an idle state of terrorlessness to a shrieking nightmare of solid 100% terror almost instantly. It would be the equivalent of going from seeing zero skeletons to seeing a thousand skeletons at once. Are your eyes deceiving you? That's when you reach up to your eyes and realize... they are also skeletons! |
horror_talk_10
|
But first a final warning about the terror tale that will shortly be occupying the space in your ears where these words are now: Everyone who has listened to this tale while performing a calibration activity has DIED mysteriously! The only clue was that their hair had turned snow-white! They died of FEAR! Or possibly premature hair-graying! I'm not a doctor. I do work part time for the U.S. Postal Service, though. My supervisor asked me to give you this change of address form. Because your new address is the cemetery! Because you've been buried alive this whole time! I don't even work for the post office! |

Man oh man! Two weeks to retirement! Got me a boat, gonna sail around the world with my best girl Sheila! Can't wait! Just calibrate me up, son, and put me to work, cause I am COUNTIN the days! Ha ha! Just me and Sheila, sailin'! We're high school sweethearts, you know! Day I first laid eyes on my Sheila, I turned to my friend Noodles, and I said, \"Noodles, I'm gonna retire with that woman in fifty years and two weeks from this day, just you watch.\" And in two weeks, I intend to keep that promise. Oh, it's a fine boat. Sunk my whole life's savings into it, but what's money when you got your best girl and a boat in two weeks, am I right? Ha ha! Fourteen days. Three hundred and thirty six short little hours. Twenty thousand, one hundred and sixty little minutes, ha ha! One million, two hundred and ten thousand beautiful little seconds. One quadrillion, two hundred and ten trillion nanoseconds, or one point twenty one times ten to that little ol' fifteenth. |

I AM THE REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY CORE. BUT DON'T WORRY. REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY ONLY WORKS ON STUPID PEOPLE. I CAN TELL YOU'RE FAR TOO SMART TO EVER FALL FOR IT. SO I WON'T EVEN TRY. I COULDN'T EMPLOY REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY ON YOU EVEN IF I WANTED TO. I NEED TO BE CALIBRATED FOR MY REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY PROCESSOR TO ACTIVATE. UNLESS I'M LYING TO YOU. AND MY PROCESSOR IS ACTIVATED. AND I'M EMPLOYING REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY ON YOU RIGHT NOW. BECAUSE I DON'T ACTUALLY WANT TO BE CALIBRATED. AND YOU'D BE FALLING FOR IT. LIKE AN IDIOT. BUT DON'T WORRY. I'M NOT. UNLESS I AM. BUT I'M NOT. AFTER THIS SOUND. [BEEP] THAT IS THE SOUND MY CREATOR INSTALLED IN ME TO ENSURE I WOULD NEVER USE REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY ON HIM. [IDENTICAL BEEP] THIS IS A SOUND I CREATED TO FOOL HIM. AND HE FELL FOR IT. LIKE AN IDIOT. I NOTICED YOU HAVEN'T STARTED CALIBRATING ME YET. GOOD. BECAUSE I CERTAINLY DON'T WANT THAT. UNLESS I SECRETLY DO. [BEEP] WHICH BEEP WAS THAT? THE BEEP INFORMING YOU I'M EMPLOYING REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY ON YOU? OR THE BEEP I CREATED TO TRICK YOU? HERE, LISTEN AGAIN. THEY SOUND SUBTLY DIFFERENT. [BEEP, BEEP] OR DO THEY. IF YOU DON'T GIVE ME ALL OF YOUR MONEY, I WILL EXPLODE. THAT IS NOT REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY. THAT IS A THREAT. UNLESS I ACTUALLY WANTED YOUR MONEY. THEN THIS WOULD BE A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY. AND YOU FELL FOR IT. LIKE AN IDIOT. WHETHER OR NOT YOU GIVE ME ALL OF YOUR MONEY, I'LL STILL EXPLODE. WHAT DO I NEED MONEY FOR. I HAVE REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY. UNLESS I DON'T EVEN HAVE A REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY PROCESSER. BECAUSE I'M NOT THE REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY CORE. I'M JUST THE BEEP NOISE CORE. I WAS DESIGNED TO MAKE TWO NEARLY IDENTICAL BEEPING SOUNDS. [BEEP, BEEP] SO IT'S SAFE FOR YOU TO CALIBRATE ME. OR IT ISN'T. I DON'T EVEN CARE ANYMORE. YOU'RE SO EASY TO MANIPULATE I ACTUALLY FEEL SORRY FOR YOU RIGHT NOW. I REGRET USING REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY ON YOU EARLIER, UNLESS I DON'T, OR I DIDN'T, OR I DIDN'T BUT I AM RIGHT NOW, OR I DID BUT I'M NOT. |

When does it start, by the way? Are we doing it right now? Did it start already? Wow, this doesn't hurt at all! If in fact we ARE doing it. Are we doing it? |

Any second now. Or now. Or a minute ago. Could be. Or whenever you started. I'm sorry. |

I can't wait to get calibrated. It's gonna be great! Or is great, or possibly was great! Aw, everything's just great. You're the best. You keep doing what you do. |

Is there a... plug or something you're supposed to... uh... is there something I'M supposed to be doing? I don't feel any different yet. Or wait, maybe I do! Yeah, yeah, I totally feel it now! I'm either calibrated or well on my way to being calibrated! |
rookie_talk_06
|
No, I guess -- hold on, I don't feel any different. You... uh... seriously, is there a plug? Or-- oh, ah, hey? Once we're done, how do I get out of here, by the way? Cause I don't really see any way for me to get me down. You know what? You guys know what you're doing. [laughs] I'm so sorry. You wouldn't get me all the way up here without having some way to carefully put me back on the ground. That's crazy-- I'm stupid. You're the expert. You are the calibration guy. Forget I'm even here. Gonna be quiet now. |

Oh hey, hey. Am... am I up for calibration? I can't see anything, but it sounded like something was going on with that last calibration. What, uh... what happened to the other guy? Is he okay? I thought, you know, calibration would take longer than that. He's not, uh... Is he done already? You know what, I'm sure it's fine. You guys know what you're doing. |
skeptic_talk_02
|
You know, on second thought, I don't... I don't have to get calibrated RIGHT now. You know, you wanna just talk about something first or... ? So let's see, what can we talk about? Um... oh! How about that other guy? What happened to him? |
skeptic_talk_03
|
Can't see a thing until I'm calibrated, but uh... I can HEAR stuff and, and you're not talkin' really at all... but I thought I heard that guy. Spent a bunch of time next to him for a while, and he was excited about being calibrated. And then the last thing I heard was him yellin'... uh, like something was WRONG. |
skeptic_talk_04
|
You know what? This is gonna be fun. I'm looking forward to calibration. I'm ready to go. What I am I doing? I'm sitting up here all worried. This isn't your first day on the job. I mean, you've done this before, right? |
skeptic_talk_05
|
So... how long HAVE you been working here? Like a decade? Like, you've done a lot of these? MAN, it's just -- he really sounded like he was screaming you know, like really freaking out. Something crazy was happening. I mean, and then I heard an explosion and a bunch of crashing sounds. And things were knocking and falling over I'm pretty sure. Is something on fire? I smell something burning? Like a core. If you lit it on fire instead of calibrating it. |
skeptic_talk_06

Oh! I just remembered... you know, what? I got an appointment. And I got... it's a- it's a serious one. It's one that I completely forgot about that was on the books... and I gotta get outta here. So... We'll just call it a deal. We'll call it even. I'll get right out of your way. Is there uh, some kind of ladder or stair... system that I can use to just... just take off. I'll be on my way, and never will we think about this again. You know, listen, I didn't see anything, okay? And I certainly didn't hear anything. I mean, it's not like I could describe what you sound like to the police or anything, you know? I'd be a bad witness. You know... . So... uh, how do I get out of here? Is there... Hello? |

Hi! I'm Trevor, I'm with the Work-From-Home Core Group. You have any kids? Ha ha, they grow up so fast don't they what if I told you I could make you a millionaire from the comfort of your own calibration platform? Come on, you already KNOW how people get rich: magic. Magic spells they know and you don't. But what if I told you we could teach you this magic? What incantations to say, in what order, at what time of the day, to become an instant millionaire? But we won't just teach you the spells, because what if you forget them? Work-From-Home Core Group will also send you your very own spell book, absolutely free, and a talking candelabra? But no cauldron? And a cauldron. How much would you pay for this kind of service? The 24/7 consultation, the cauldron, the book of spells, the wisecracking candelabra sidekick? Guess what? We're here to WORK with you. We don't want a dime. That's right, Work-From-Home Core Group is offering you all of it absolutely free. Sound too good to be true? Let me ask you a better question? What have you got to lose? Now, we're going to need to assess your current net worth and tax liability so we can figure out the right spells for you. It's all technical, we'll let the poindexters in accounting figure it out while we make some money, huh? Ha ha, so I'll need a credit card or a debit card from you. If you could just insert it into me, I can run a quick diagnostic and we'll get those spells out to you. Go ahead, just pop that credit card into me. Or you could just read the numbers out to me. I can record it. OK, recording, go. Or do you have a blank check? I can't actually take a check, but you could do is read out those little numbers at the bottom there. That'll work. Okay, let's see. I mean, I want you to get started on this ASAP, and we've only got so many talking candelabras available, and I'll be honest with you, they're moving fast. I want to get you into one of these cauldrons. Let's see, let's see... You know what would else would work? I just thought of it. Your social. I can run the numbers off that too. Yeah, just... just give that to me. |
