Brilliant! Can Jason Mraz (the famous singer of "I'm Yours") and I, Kelly JoAnne Wise (a nobody, an untouchable) join? We have been the most victimized of this abhorrent AI experiment to cure PTSD. We want compensation for unnecessary pain and suffering.

As Keegan-Michael Key describes us: we're Blerds [Black Nerds]. Not only did I learn Computer Programming, I was a Psychology Major. It's an Oxymoron only Ricky Gervais could pull off. FYI, I cringed at "The Office". I was a babysitter for way too many incompetent bosses but the pay was great!

Genius! Not quite sure if it will infuriate the right people though but…don’t care. As long as someone is angry then you’ve done your job. It’s so good, in fact, it is as if Ricky himself wrote it rather than you wrote it for Ricky. As a person with lotsa neuro-divergent people in her life, including my own father, I really love this.

I'm a little disappointed, no-one is angry, no-one is offended. Confused yes, but offended no.

Well Dave, I am no scientist but this Substack seems like a small sample from which to reach this conclusion. However I might totally be missing something as I am only on this platform presently to read your work. Maybe test a larger sample? Or a more intelligent sample? No offense fellow Substack readers.

I agree, needs a larger audience. Maybe one day Ricky will come across it and retweet?

Doesn't matter, I need to focus on the next story, adventure, solution.

Wouldn’t a retweet from Ricky be fortuitous? Or even if he tested the concept at one of his Work in Progress shows? Agreed; always focus on the next adventure but don’t throw the baby out with the bath water as they say. Unless you never wanted the baby.

Not an Australian, but you know what the comic geniuses say, “Good comics borrow. Great comics steal!” GOOD ON YOU, MATE! I’m not entirely sure where you’re going, but I’m up for finding out. Thanks for sharing! Plz give me a sec to buckle up. I suspect it might be a bumpy ride. I wouldn’t be surprised if we hit a bit of turbulence in these not always friendly skies. Ready for blast off, Dave!
