I have this old edit too, but I like yours better.
"You want to join the surface team?"
"Uhhh, no. I'm fine here working on the food-o-matic. Thanks."
What is wrong with becoming a transporter clone so that a nearly infinite supply of Ensign Kims you can serve your glorious overlords by dying over and over again... - uh, I mean, "go get coffee" - until the sweet release of ultimate death?
Pro-Tip: did you know that deactivation and reactivation of a holographic lifeform is basically akin to death and reincarnation? Each time they are shut off, they really have no clue if this time will be their last...
The Doctor once said he goes to a void when he is deactivated. My head canon is that he goes to the same void as Janet from The Good Place and they hang out. Or maybe it's Derek's void he ends up in.
Edit: DEREK!
Having to hang out with Derek - it's so much worse than The Bad Place!!
I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
Hi there!
I suppose it is better than "have you thought about nourishing the next generation? give us a call here at soylent"
Holy tribbles, you're not kidding - this is a real billboard from Independent Health! They literally have their Medicare rep wearing the red uniform while telling seniors to "Retire the RedShirt Way." And that 5-star rating just makes it chef's kiss perfect!
This is the most brilliantly dark healthcare advertising I've ever seen... Live long and... maybe not prosper? ๐
Live short and pass along your money.
So that's why it happens in the future the evil corp we have now instilled it into humans so much it happens regularly in the future of the Federation wow!
They are playing the long game here. Literal mind virus.
"Retire"
Do these marketers just try to slip stuff like this past their clients, just to see what they'll sign off?
Yeah, that lady is 100% going to show up at when you absolutely most expect it, and kill you in the most incredibly predictable way you can imagine.
Don't eat random plants.
It is simple retirement.
