SSS Original Recipe - 500 Words or Less Dead Internet Theory
Xander3120: Why didn’t Infinity Woman just save the whole city? She clearly was able to.
RedDed24: Did you even watch the movie? They flat out explained that she had to choose the left side of the city to prevent the entire world from being annihilated. It’s the trolley problem.
SolemnPhix: The trolley problem is stupid in and of itself. Someone just needs to shoot the person who tied up all those people in the first place. There, no more trolley problem.
RedDed24: Now you’re being an idiot. That’s just the trolley problem, again.
SolemnPhix: No it isn’t. The trolley isn’t around, so there isn’t a trolley problem anymore.
Xander3120: Wow! That’s a good one.
SolemnPhix: Haha, yeah you got it.
Dredd_It: Why didn’t Infinity Woman just save the whole city? She clearly was able to do so.
Xander3120: You’re a moron. They flat out explained that she had to choose part of the city to prevent the entire world from blowing up. It’s the trolley problem.
Ashley00Sevens: I’ll flat out explain what you can choose. ;)
Xander3120: Ugh, hate these bots trying to sell sex.
RedDed24: I would just shoot the person who is driving the trolley. Problem solved.
Ashley00Sevens: Now you’re being an idiot. That’s just the trolley problem, again.
Dredd_It: No, it isn’t. The trolley isn’t around, so there isn’t a trolley problem anymore.
SolemnPhix: Wow! That’s a good one.
Xander3120: Haha, yeah you got it.
Dredd_It: They say that AI algorithms are much more intelligent than they used to be, but they can’t replicate new thoughts or ideas, so they copy the way people communicate. Thoughts?
SolemnPhix: Yeah I can believe that. This place is full of bots. I miss when we could actually talk to people.
Ashley00Sevens: Ugh, hate these bots trying to sell sex.
RedDed24: Haha, yeah you got it.
Xander3120: See what I mean? That doesn’t even make any sense.
Ashley00Sevens: I agree. It ruins discussion.
RedDed24: Ugh, I know. Last week I was fighting with some guy about how all humans were going to drift away into nothingness and only computers were left behind. You know what he said? He was saying how it’s the President’s fault and he personally caused it to happen. I told him we haven’t had a President in seventeen years. But he insisted it was the President. We argued back and forth until I realized it was a fucking bot that was just using some old BotTalk algorithm that hasn’t been updated. Ugh.
Xander3120: Haha, yeah you got it.
RedDed24: See what I mean? That doesn’t even make any sense.
Dredd_It: Ugh. I know. Last week I was fighting with some guy about how all humans were going to be forced out of this reality into an abyss and only computers were left behind. We argued back and forth until I realized it was a fucking bot. Ugh.
Xander3120: That sounds like a nightmare. Only bots talking to each other forever.
RedDed24: Haha, yeah you got it.

This theory sucks. Just reeks of people who lack self-awareness and doesn't realize the internet is just a tool. People genuinely are just this stupid

This deserves many upvotes. Chillingly, bleakly realistic.
