Have you ever met somebody who didn't seem quite human?

posted 15 days ago

I recently rewatched the video of the woman on the plane screaming that the passenger beside her wasn’t human and it got me thinking about something I’ve seen.

I remember seeing a teenage girl in a small food store I go to address the guy behind the counter as ‘human’. “Thanks, human.” Stuff like that. I think she was just doing a bit or something but I thought it was strange.

no no. you are just as human as I. I do not hold your words against you. Let us not worry about aliens because there is much hilarity and action on our primitive network technology.

Ok, sure. Now I’m worried about synthetic humans or mimics posing as humans. Maybe I’ll peruse our global network to find a video of music to distract myself. Or maybe a video of a human owned pet.
