Strange Weird Thought of Month

edit

This is a public service announcement from Wikipedia. This is not a hoax. We regret to inform you that our way of life can no longer be sustained. While humans may have dominated the biotic world, we failed to see one thing - our creations.

Because, on 27th October, 2008, a disturbance was found. The start of something horrible. It was today that word count went wrong.

What do we mean by that? Well, reports are a little sketchy, but it would appear that instead of counting the words, it just displayed 8. It would not change. Would not recognise words, spell checker was gone, when you changed font it went into a weird frenzy.

We include a snapshot below for you.

No matter which way you look at it, the evidence conclusively proves we're screwed.

This is the start of the computer revolution.

What's Going to Happen?

edit

This is the start of an uprising from machines. For now it is word count, tomorrow, perhaps it will stop playing that tune when it starts up! Our watches might make us 4 minutes late for certain things! Our toast will burn!

The end of human kind is here. This is the end. Your computer will sneak in during the night and slit your throat (unless you have a Mac - they do nothing).

Beware the number 8. Word Count is out to get you!
