I was studying late into the night at the library when I saw my friend being escorted up the escalators. I got up and followed them, leaving my laptop at my seat as I didn’t expect to be gone for long. The escalator led to a narrow hallway on the third or fourth floor and I’d lost track of my friend.

I was walking up the stairs of the house where the enemies were supposedly hiding. I peeked around the corner of a doorway by the stairs before throwing a small explosive into the room. The charge opened some kind of mini black hole that disintegrated a chunk of the room and its contents. I walked up to a microwave built into the wall of the hallway and messed with its settings. This was supposed to inflict morale damage to whoever survived.

I was looking for an SFM video to put on the big screen when I saw a familiar thumbnail on YouTube. I remembered the video only having been around 3 minutes long but the timestamp reported the runtime to be around 340 minutes. It started off as a regular TF2 machinima however the screen went black a few minutes in. It then seemed to loop the same video multiple times but it wasn’t until the 3rd iteration or so that I noticed small changes were creeping in.

I left the kitchen where my dad was cooking and went upstairs to the living room. My brother and his wife were discussing what to eat. She told him that he should’ve bought the chicken wraps earlier if he knew he was going to want them now. They said something about food mixers being expensive.

I was sitting in a Czech language class and the learning material for the day was based on a blurb that you could find on a jar of honey. My friend had apparently found the specific brand in question and had brought it to class. The answers to the problems on the blackboard were on the label.

My parents were cooking in the kitchen, however when I walked in I saw that the fridge and been split in half horizontally. I asked them what they were doing and they said it helped with rearranging the stuff inside. They were talking about how our landlady had too much junk that needed to be cleared out.

It was already dark out by the time I got to campus on my bike. I bumped into an old friend on the stairs and asked where he was headed. He told me that he was on his way to catch a train bound for New York.

I was getting my hair cut as I had gotten called for additional military training, however the barber was only willing to give half of a buzzcut before moving on to the next person. We were later herded into the cafeteria and had to pick out our own plates from the many racks of trays. There was a form on the wall which asked which boss monster players encounter at level 1 in Path of Exile. A few of the rows had already been filled in with Merveil, so I followed along without much thought.

I was sitting at a diner with my family for breakfast. Everyone else had gotten their meals of meat and berry pies but my plate was empty because I couldn’t make up my mind on what to order. My dad asked my brother if he could show him his teeth. My brother showed off his set of dentures while his wife showed us her golden implants.

We were playing videogames on the TV. Someone leaned over and sniffed another person’s back. I started grinding my teeth with a sensation of plastic plates in my mouth.
