Today I learned that mastahcheese works at a kleptomania factory.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

At least they fired the guy who kept stealing the boxes of bacon.
I mean, there are over 2000 strips of bacon in those, and there was one missing almost every other day.
Who even needs that much freaking bacon?

Well, I was building a meat dragon, and not just any meat would do.

The crazy part is when you try to add it up, because that's about 6000 strips in a week, and he'd been doing this for a whole 5 months before they found out who it was.

It was a 1:256 scale model of Ancalagon the Black, okay?

Well I would've done for the outer layers, but I never got that far. I only got a claw assembled before I was fired, and the odor of a 5-month-old bacon sculpture alerted the authorities as to my whereabouts.

I can only imagine that, for those five months, somewhere out there was a whole community full up on bacon.

Actually, I can imagine far worse things involving mass amounts of slabs of raw meat, but... I'll go with community spirit and a love of giving instead of someone wrapping themselves in cold flesh to while away the lonely hours.

Amateurs.

You assemble a scaffold of the model, then place the bacon over that. Charred bacon, of course, but keep a few slabs red for the eyes, and bones for the claws. If there are no skeletons in your closet, you could use bleached-white drift wood.

And now I want a superhero whose outfit is made entirely of bacon.

It's like you haven't ever spent time with this hobby.

No, because then you increase demand of bacon. The scaffold needs to be normal, because people don't mind a man who likes his bacon. They do mind a man who turns said bacon into calcified scaffolding. It's a PR thing.
