“Do whatnow?”
“Oh, what’s that expression you carbons use, ‘take a chill pill’?”

The travel poster looked like so many others. A lush forest behind a serene beach. The text said "Be something exotic!"
"Sorry, there's a typo on your poster. I think you mean 'somewhere'?"
"No. We can make you to be, say, a bear, tiger, or hippo, for up to a week."
"A hippo? Tell me more!"
“We’ve solved the hyperspace jump gate congestion problem by linking ships into convoys and installing antimatter energy transfer grids in the gate lanes!”
“Trains. You invented trains. Again.”
Suddenly, I noticed a faint smell of tuna. I looked over at my office partner, Dr. Hunt. She was grinning by the machine she'd built.
"It works!"
"Nice," I said. "What is it?"
"What you smell is the ghost of tuna!"
I felt something brush against my leg. The office filled with ghostly purring.

She offered to row the old wizard and the young king out on the lake. When a hand emerged from the water, holding a sword aloft, the king took the sword. And she took hold of the hand, let herself be pulled down, down.
The Lady of the Lake breathed air into her lungs with a laugh.
"You again?"

The time traveller closed the book and stared blankly ahead.
"So," said the author, "was that what-"
"No! That wasn't at all- It's a warning!"
"Allegorical, but y-"

"Kill?"
"I must go!"

I’m on record as saying I *despise* time travel; nothing good ever comes of it. But I’m making _one_ exception. NoBait is a browser extension that receives the “news of the week” via tachyon backscatter from next week, and filters out any of today’s news articles that turned out in hindsight to be nothingburgers. You can read the news without feeling like it’s some kind of guess-the-lie quiz show. All those “is there going to be a challenge for the Literal Nazi Parry leadership” and “does TFG have HyperAnthrax” clickbait articles just _go_away_. Except this one I’m looking at now. It’s a *doozy*, you’re gonna love it!

I never would have opted for total cyber-conversion if I knew how many hours I would be spending debugging YAML files.
