hello mr. serling.
it's glad to meet another mysterious being.
best regards, @miss-yakumos-night-gallery
And a warm welcome to you, Miss Yakumo. Welcome to The Twilight Zone.
Imagine if you were going about your day until your face just... disappeared. Don't worry! This is a Normal problem that many people face in this society. You just go to lost and found and describe the face you lost. Go on. You remember your face, right? I mean, you wear it every day. You look at it more times than you can count. Alright, fine, if you can't describe your face, how about we go and look for it. I'll show you two of our lost faces, and you say which one looks mostly like your face. That way, I can slowly narrow down to yours.
Alright, I've narrowed it down to the last three. This should be an easy choice, given how diff- I'm sorry, what's that? They all look... the same to you? Nonsense, can't you see how different and unique they are? One of these must be your face, just look harder! Which of these has your eyes? Your nose? Is this hair familiar? Oh come on, hurry up and pick!
Imagine if you will, a young man, tired beyond belief. Sleepy. Perhaps even eepy. This young man will be faced by forces beyond his control that will try and drag him from his cozy and warm bed. That force? Capitalism. Welcom... to The Twilight Zone.
At work there used to be a sign on a few things that would say like "if this bubbles, run for your life" and "if you hear thumping run for cover" and "bears can and will kill you" and really in general I wish the park service was more willing to say "you are not at home, you are not at disneyland, you can die here and you can die so badly your family will have to bury an empty casket because no one will risk their own life to collect your idiot corpse."
I love the idea of a roomba topography map being the jumping on point for a liminal horror story. House of Leaves II: Roomba.

My apologies.
My biscuits are slightly over baked. I much prefer them to be soft. :c This is the last time I put on The Twilight Zone while preparing food.
Only in a world with nowhere left to go but online, can you find people complaining about other being online.
“kids spend too much time on their devices” well what else are they supposed to do? there’s no corner shops with pinball machines in them on every corner anymore. there’s no malls or stores in small towns for teens to hang out in without being suspected of shoplifting or kicked out for loitering. sidewalks are too broken for them to ride their bikes and there’s no bike lane in the street to make it safe for them. i just don’t understand where they expect these kids to go when they keep taking places away from them. and yes having no safe public places for them is what leads a lot of teens into addiction if they end up at a place where people aren’t truly looking out for them.
Do you believe in the power of a curse?
Yes. Do you?
You hit the nail on the head, veiwer.
So I've been watching the twilight zone
You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into... the Twilight Zone.
