well i can say for sure no ones done that
since
most people dont like the reactions in general i think?
well sometimes people show one person or two people and then they give in mostly i think
i think the most "experimenty" we ever got was last month
when some people went on strike for a week or something from the app
(i didnt because fuck putting down my phone)
and all they learned is literally nothing happened
but they still got physical changes and memories and shit
even without using it
so basically all they did was isolate themselves from other people except in person meetups for a week
practically medieval

Are you really that dependent on your phone?

[parodeity]

yes
im a millennial im surgically attached to my iphone and ill die without it
go into immediate withdrawal symptoms
my fingers will be all reaching out for the screen to tap and swipe away but theyll come up empty
and theyll send these desperate cries for mercy to my brain via the nervous system
and my brain will just go holy fucking shit the phone is gone
time to shut the whole production down and go home
and then its lights out for dave strider
do you want me to die

After that heaping serving of sarcasm I just might.

I don't suppose you're looking for a job as a research assistant, are you?

[parodeity]

as it happens i am absolutely looking for a way to burn some free time
what do you need me to do

[ help dave avoid his emotions, plz ]

In essence: you'd follow me around and record the data, along with any other comments I may have.

[ he should probably ask if this pays or something. but also: this sounds like a solid excuse he can back up to not do other things, so whatever ]

ok sure
do you mind if i use red ink or do i need to use black

[originallutece]

You can use whatever you'd like, and include typing, so long as it's legible and transferable. When can you start?

[parodeity]

immediately
as long as its not during highschool class hours although a few days i get out early
due to senioring
and a schedule that allows it

[originallutece]

This Friday, then, at four o'clock. We'll work into the early evening, then resume Saturday at noon. Between those two times and days, we ought to get quite a few responses. Where shall I meet you?

[parodeity]

depends where you wanna do this
if in the school district do you know that one statute of the founder surrounded by benches i can meet you there
otherwise the fountain in rec square would be an easy meetup point

[originallutece]

Recollé Square seems the best option. Given we haven't yet met, I shan't offer you a ride there, but if you'd like one home at the end of the day, you're more than welcome.

[parodeity]

see you there at 4 on friday then
im pretty fine with getting around the city no worries
