Conspiracy Theories


"Computer!" 
"Yes?"
"I would like to read a book about science fiction. Futuristic."
"Any other restrictions?"
"Yes. I would like it to include the group: Freemasons."
"Do you mean the musical group, the political party, or the social organization?"
"It's a musical group? Bookmark the musical group...I'll come back to that. I meant the social organization."
"Musical group bookmarked. Any other restrictions?"
"I would also like it to include lizards."
"No records found that can match your request."
"fine- get rid of the lizard bit."
"Any other restrictions?"
"No."
"I have three thousand results that match your inquiry."
"And none of them have lizard people?"
"No."
"Doesn't that seem a bit odd to you?"
"I do not know."
"Search the internet for instances in which the term 'freemasons' is used in close proximity to the phrase 'lizard people'."
"I have over five million instances of this occurring. How would you like them to be sorted?"
"No, I don't want you to sort them! I'm trying to make a point! Don't you think it's strange how frequently the lizard people are mentioned along with the freemasons, and yet no one has ever written a book about it?"
"I do not know."
"Okay. Search "Little Pony" in conjunction with "race car driving". Then search for books on the same subject."
"I have over 50,000 web results and forty-three book results for these terms."
"But with freemasons and the lizard people, you have over five million web results and no book results."
"That is correct."
"Why, Computer?"
"I cannot answer that question."
"It seems to me that a plot is afoot."
"..."
"It seems to me this deserves looking into."
