The Truth Is Out There

You know, I think I'm onto something with this whole Matrix conspiracy theory. If it's not true, then explain the uncanny similarity between Matrix-invading-virus-on-legs Agent Smith, and Channel-4-infesting-property-improvement-whore Phil Spencer ...

You want proof? I give you:

Don't say I didn't warn you ...

Second Life? Try Getting A First Life!

Am I the only person who finds a terrifying irony in the fact that the Wachowski Brothers were so near the mark and yet so very far off with The Matrix?

Isn't it just a little bit, just the teensiest bit fucking scary that it doesn't look like it'll take an entire army of machines and the aftermath of a nuclear war to confine the human race to a virtual simulation of real life?

No, all you need to do is offer people the opportunity to buy a house there and they fucking queue up to insert themselves into the Matrix.

No need for Agent Smith, just Estate Agent Smith.
