Techerous

My name is Bill, I am a recent graduate in Information Sciences and Technology from Penn State University and this is a place for me to post or give my 2 cents on the fascinating world of technology. I am now working for a pretty big technology related company whose name I will leave out just to avoid any possible complications, however far-fetched them happening may be. Music gets included from time to time as well.

Watch the video here.

Well, certainly wasn’t expecting that twist at the end.  This is actually a pretty unique and relevant “bad future” story.  I was wondering throughout why the girl didn’t seem aware that the guy was probably using something, I guess creepers are drawn to the same tools at all points of time.

Kind of wish I had found this during my first 2 years of college, even though I would’ve died of alcohol poisoning or gotten kicked out for following that last rule.
