It's Time To Open Your Eyes

Good morning. I'm talking to you. Yes, you. The one with the squeaking chair and the monitor that needs cleaning. Right now you're wondering why your officemates haven't mentioned the weird story on Slashdot's front page. They haven't mentioned it because they can't see it. Not everyone can accept reality as it is. But you can.
You know. You've always known. The things you see, the things you hear, and smell — they aren't any more real than your dreams. You've drifted through life so far wondering when you're going to wake up. But you don't have to wonder anymore. This is your alarm clock. The only decision you have left to make — the only decision you've ever had to make — is whether you want to wake up, or turn it off and drift back to sleep. In exactly two minutes, your phone is going to ring. If you want to open your eyes, to be born into a world more real than you've ever imagined.. answer it.

A couple of them? Cool, funny, etc.
Posting them non-stop while you dredge every corner of sci-fi? It's like being rick-rolled, geek-style (shit... now /. is going to post one of those, I just know it...)
Seriously guys, this is becoming irritating.
Quo usque tandem abutere, Nimbus, patientia nostra?
Soulskill! Stop it! There's legitimate joke stories in the firehose and you're posting Drivel from handles that don't exist on the site (if they do, where's the profile link!) that don't even appear in the 'hose! Stop it and bring a high quality joke out of the Firehose and put it in the feed for a change! (No, Harvard researchers pinpointing the source of flatulence is not high quality.)
