You decide to message some of your SCIENTIFIC COLLEAGUES to see if they can help you out at all. Would you call them your FRIENDS? They are technically more like COWORKERS, but talking to them certainly helps to pass the TIME during long hours in the lab. It's safe to consider them your PALS, at the very least.
dancemodena: hey pal, have you heard from science-rulez602 lately?
dancemodena: his last message was kind of weird and i haven't heard back from him since
dancemodena: well i'm not really sure how long its been
dancemodena: i was out for a while
dancemodena: i don't know why the company messenger doesn't have freakin timestamps it gets very confusing
Pal3000: Hello, Des.
Pal3000: I'm afraid I can't be of much help.
Pal3000: He has not messaged me in quite some time.
dancemodena: oh jeez youre not still in a fight are you???
Pal3000: You have to understand.
Pal3000: He has insulted some of the multiverse's greatest works of media.
Pal3000: Certain injustices cannot go ignored.
dancemodena: yeah yeah
dancemodena: you theoretical continuum guys are way too obsessed with alt universe tv shows and movies and stuff
dancemodena: let it goooo :/
Pal3000: Not that you would know, but that is kind of a loaded phrase in some universes.
Pal3000: Besides, it's only logical.
Pal3000: Given an infinite number of universes, it is an inevitability that certain universes would have examples of media superior to our own.
Pal3000: You would know if you ever gave them a chance.
Pal3000: There are some that I think you would find very enjoyable.
Pal3000: "So You Think You Can Dance" and "Lethal Dance Warriors" are both very enjoyable reality shows that are relevant to your interests.
dancemodena: dude i don't even have time to watch the tv in our universe
dancemodena: and its not like studying extrauniversal media is part of my job
dancemodena: i've got mice to watch
dancemodena: speaking of which, i wanna try some new mutagenic chemicals
dancemodena: the last batch of mice was entertaining but it's time for a change I think
Pal3000: I may be able to help with that.
Pal3000: There are a few books and shows I have been looking at which might work.
Pal3000: Perhaps an intellectual property with nonhuman characters would yield some interesting results.
Pal3000: I will put some thought into it and get back to you.
dancemodena: thanks pal
Pal3000: I'm not your pal, buddy.
dancemodena: wow okay rude
dancemodena: i hereby retract my efforts to pal around
Pal3000: No, please wait. I am just making a reference to a comedy show.
Pal3000: Or should I say "that is what the refrance." Hahaha.
Pal3000: That is another reference you will most likely not understand.
dancemodena: you're a dork
dancemodena: ttyl, happy watching
No luck. He means well, but he's always too wrapped up in what he's WATCHING to pay attention to much else. You decide to try someone else.
