The Terminus meme is a truly unique phenomenon, with roots both in and out of character that have allowed it to flourish and take on a high degree of sociocultural significance among Terminators in every sense of the demonym. When one critically examines these memes through a linguistic anthropological lens, it becomes clear that as the mode of humor has evolved and continues to do so, it is able to bridge uptime, downtime, and time out while maintaining minimal blurring of the line of the classic IC/OC divide.

Make The Board take the resignation letter back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn resignation, what the hell am I supposed to do with this? Demand to see The Board’s manager! Make The Board rue the day it thought it could give Dane Lawrence an early resignation! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna fake the end of the world! With the resignation letter! I’m gonna get my engineers at Bibere to invent a combustible piece of paper that burns your reactors down!” - Dane Lawrence (Unprompted) ====Facts==== I freaking hate Carlene. I know what you’re thinking, this is some kind of funny joke, but no. Carlene is a piece of dirt. A damn rat (metaphorically) got picked over actual people at an election and he’s supposed to be a hero? And I can’t even tell you how many damn times I’ve seen a great parking space only to turn the corner and realise Carlene has already demolished it for some stupid project. He took my wife and the kids and my house and my job. I swear to the other gods, I’m going to kill myself and take that goddamn rodent (metaphorical) to hell with me. Carlene has ruined my family. Last downtime, I approached the miserable rat-sympathiser in the street, and asked him for his autograph, because my co-worker is a huge fan. The freaking rat gave me the autograph and told me to murder innocents. Later, when I gave my colleague the autograph he started crying and said he hated me. Turns out the rat-helper didnt write his autograph, no, he wrote “I will kill you unless you leave the cultists alone”. I’m now divorced, and planning a huge class-action lawsuit against the white devil that ruined my life. Your time is almost over, Carlene. All the people you’ve wronged will rise against you.

Besides, I think Avgust has been using them for some other message board. - Can whoever is consuming copious amounts of coffee please replace the stocks in the cupboards. This is getting ridiculous. -No - The annual fire drill will commence on Tuesday. -ok but what time tho?? -Tuesday. - Can we have the rubble cleared proper before we do any more fire drills in Caput... - Can the owner of the farming robot please clear it out of the break room. - Robots need breaks too! - The test results are back. You are all horrible people. We weren't even testing for that. - Did we ever consider the possibility of putting more than one type of good on a train? It's not like the robots will eat the crops if left unattended. - //A little doodle of a moth is added on a pink post it note.// - Vote Mirax for Director! Again! (Come on everyone, it'd be hilarious lmao) - Heather Clef, I am appointing you acting Director. Congratulations. You were the only person I saw fit for the job. ==== Reasons Luna should be allowed to keep The Gun ==== * She is very Polite * Please * As a caveat, everyone in the Underground can have a gun too, to protect themselves from any potential Luna-with-a-gun based threats.
