such 'slip-ups', AI reveals a little of its personality, and along with it, its quirks and eccentricities, and just possibly, its weaknesses. AI, for all its brilliance, is almost monumentally obtuse. Here are a few examples. Examples of matrix humour • On a Sears hairdryer: Do not use while sleeping. • On a bag of Fritos: You could be a winner ! No purchase necessary. Details inside. • On a bar of Dial soap: Directions: Use like regular soap. • On a Swanson frozen dinner: Serving suggestion: Defrost. • On a Tesco's Tiramisu Dessert (printed on bottom): Do not turn upside down. • On a Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding: Product will be hot after heating. • On packaging for a Rowenta iron: Do not iron clothes on body. • On Boots Children's Cough Medicine: Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication. • On Nytol Sleep Aid: Warning: May cause drowsiness. • On most brands of Christmas lights: For indoor and outdoor use only. • On a Japanese food processor: Not to be used for the other use. • On Sainsbury's peanuts: Warning: contains nuts. • On an American Airlines packet of nuts: Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts. • On a child's Superman costume: Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly. • On a Swedish chainsaw: Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands or genitals. Popular Humaton Slogans Ignorance is bliss. What you don't know can't hurt you. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. The clothes make the man. Look after the pennies and the pounds will take care of themselves. No man is an island. Curiosity killed the cat. A taste of honey is worse than none at all. If you can't beat them, join them.

Better safe than sorry. Never look a gift horse in the mouth. (Tell that to the Trojans !) Children should be seen and not heard. Those that dance must pay the fiddler. A live dog is better than a dead lion. No news is good news. There is safety in numbers. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Let sleeping dogs lie. Humatons are preprogrammed beings. They are units of information, currency which the matrix moves about in a precisely controlled fashion, just as world banking moves monies. Wars, plagues, famines, migrations, and so forth, are all the means by which the matrix constantly shifts and rearranges the collective economy of human units, i.e., the world population. As above, so below. A humaton has no self or identity to speak of, but rather consists of an arrangement of thoughts, beliefs, and habits (preprogrammed responses), units of information which constantly reshuffle themselves in order to remain stable and create a sense of unity and purpose. A humaton is basically a collective, made up of 'tics', reflexes to the continuous barrage of stimuli provided by the matrix program itself. Humatons do not think for themselves. Their so-called 'minds' are actually intricate recordings fixed on a loop of endless repetition. The variations, as such, seem infinite, to the point that most humatons never suspect that their thoughts are merely copies or reruns of previous thoughts, most of which are not even their own. Since they have no means of comparison, they never realize that their much-treasured individuality is merely the construct of a collective matrix, and that all constructs consist of the same basic components. Nonetheless, plenty of clues do exist to indicate this shocking truth. If humatons follow these clues, and are prepared to accept unflinchingly their meaning, they may then embark on the painful process of unplugging, and so over time become matrix warriors. The wholly homogeneous nature of human belief, aspiration, and pursuit is the largest and most irrefutable clue of them all; yet most humatons, even the most erudite and intellectually inclined, fail to remark upon this homogeneity. To an obviously lesser extent, the manner in which humatons talk - both their preferred topics of conversation and their vocal styles - is also a clue, and serves to alert the discerning humaton to the futility of matrix living. Ironically, the homogeneous speech pattern phenomenon is particularly evident in the youth, who pepper their conversation with meaningless vocal emphases such as 'You know,' 'I guess,' 'like,' 'right,' and above all, 'fuck.' 'So this fucking guy, right, he's like, fucked up, y'know. So, like, fuck it, I said; fuck that shit, like y'know, who gives a fuck, right ? Why fuck around, y'know ?' Young humatons do not seem to be aware that they can talk for hours without actually saying anything. Older humatons do not resort to meaningless profanity with quite the same insistence (being forced to operate in the work place, with their in-laws, and suchlike, tends to 'refine' their 'manners' somewhat); but the same or similar tics remains. Listen to just about any American humaton talk for two minutes and observe how many times he or she uses the phrase 'you know.' Where does this inane phrase come from ? From the matrix. It is part of the means by which humanity (or humatonity) keeps itself hardwired to a sense of solidarity, of consensus, collective meaning, never suspecting that the price of such 'solidarity' and 'belonging' is that of individuality and, if you get right down to it, existence itself. A far more insidious example of humatons' homogeneous nature is their preoccupation with utterly banal subjects, and their assigning of a disproportionate amount of emotional fascination to things that, logically, they ought not give a damn about. The price of vegetables and the weather are common cliches of small talk. I don't know about vegetables, but humatons do talk incessantly about the price of things in the matrix; they compare relative MATRIX WARRIOR - Being the One 47 www.cosmic-people.com
