The Deus Ex games being spoopily accurate about some predictions. Everyone knows the 9/11 one, but then in Human Revolution they made some more predictions that are close to home. So far we've had some serious issues in the oil markets in 2015, and artifical limbs being developed that will require anti-rejection drugs for life. Also Detroit is shit now but it was always shit so...

They look to be running an accuracy record at least as high as the Bible though. So that's something.

That's a pretty low bar.

At least it fulfills its own prophecies.

Half of them, at any rate.

I wonder what happens if a prophecy foresees that it will not come true.

Again? Seriously?

EDIT: Rewrote the whole thing

Procrastination! You do it and not realize it until you realize you have stuff to turn in and schoolwork to finish

Yay.

What else is a 6th grader to do when they're stuck in computer lab?

The universe crashes, so Toady makes some bugfixes and resets the universe.

Got turned down from one job for having "too much" experiene. Got turned down for another for having "too little." Different companies, same job title and description.... Damn it, really? Where the hell is Goldilockes when you need her? Probably in some bear's bed

In my middle school when one of my classes went to a computer lab a kid pulled his pants down and mooned the whole class.  The teacher couldn't see because of where he was sitting and no one told her.

Overqualified: Dont be if you want a job.

[hops]

Am I the only one who think Truean should just make her own company? :^

[Aseaheru]

To be fair, I realized my mistake before I read your post.

To also be fair, this is the first time I have quoted her...

Overqualified: Dont be if you want a job.

The concept of being overqualified is, IMO, literally the most dumbest possible idea in the history of stupid business decisions. It's pretty much the physical embodiment of Tall Poppy Syndrome.

Of course, that's assuming it's not used as a circumlocutory way of saying 'I don't like you and your face is dumb, fuck off with a rusty spike 4evar, not hired'. Which, even with Truean's carefulness, might well be the case.
