| Aug 19, 2017 at 19:09 | comment | added | DLosc | To add to the reading list: abominations + bureaucracy sounds a lot like the description of Hell in The Screwtape Letters; and abominations + cults + scientists + bureaucracy sounds a lot like N.I.C.E. in That Hideous Strength (and the seeds of it in the previous books of the Space Trilogy). Evidently, C.S. Lewis thought bureaucracy was pretty diabolical. | |

| Aug 14, 2017 at 17:30 | comment | added | Dent7777 | I can neither confirm nor deny that the CEOs of Electronic Arts are Cthulhu-Worshipping cultists who desire nothing more than to see humanity plunged into chaos and madness. | |

| Aug 14, 2017 at 15:53 | comment | added | Dent7777 | Ma'am, I am terribly sorry, but your husband failed to renew his application for continued sanity. There is nothing we can do, other than urge you to submit a request for cessation of survival for your husband, so he may join Cthulhu in eternal undeath. Have a nice day, Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn. | |
| Aug 14, 2017 at 15:40 | comment | added | Sarkouille | I thought Lovecraft was bordering the maximum potential of helplessness, dispair and madness. Then Cthulhu took Management 101. | |
