The new stealth bomber costs 700 million per bomber.
Did you ever feel like putting on your electric suit
And getting gone?
Before Christmas!
Only because we have never been able
To live simply
And Christmas always rubs that in.
I never asked for a new stealth bomber.
I was fine with the old one.
And I don't want a new electric suit either.
The old one still works, sort of.
It doesn't hold a charge as long as it used to
But at least it neutralizes the noosphere
Long enough for me to escape all the algorithms
That make me think that I need a new stealth bomber
For Christmas.
In fact,
My electric suit was the best investment I ever made.
That and my homemade helicopter,
Which reminds me,
I think I'll renew my subscription to Popular Mechanics.
Maybe there is a blueprint
For a quieter helicopter.
