It's weird for me to remember that KFC attaching itself like a sponsorship limpet to the game of cricket is strictly a local thing. It's done such a good job of creating a Pavlovian mental association that I can't mentally separate the greasy chicken buckets and the sport. And then I remember that literally everywhere else, that is not even slightly a thing, which is slightly surreal.

And they don't attach like that to anything here. Booze and cigarettes use to attach to NASCAR, but not anymore.

Sorta, but this was more the feds leaning on tobacco and alcohol. They weren't to keen on a mediocre beer bringing the primary sponsor of what after all is, a driving competion.

I had an odd dream.

I dreamt that I got warned for violating the PG-13 rule.

Yesterday I dreamt of being in a gaming club with some of my old friends (You lived there, you played video games there, you worked there, etc.). There were 3 teams thwere, and each one had their own wing in the club.

Then, there's a bunch of protesters saying it was bigoted after some newbies made a bunch of offensive jokes on a stream. I then responded by singing an argument about how it was just some rookies and not the higher-ups.
I'm a dude.
Also, call me Amuaplye, not Amuapyle, or Amu.

Do you remember what your team was and how it differed from the other two?

By the time I close these old eyes, I expect to see a world where there is a protest concert to protest another concert held in protest of a concert about protest, and David Bowie's hologram will perform, and the Riot Police will do their job of making sure nobody hurts themselves on whatever nano-neural entanglement drugs the kids are doing then.

I had a... very odd one, to say the least. Dreams are odd, we established that, but this is damn creepy.

Booted up Overwatch to play, but this time, seems like I somehow had connection to character I was playing. Map looked like one of those decontamination chambers, the one with all the aluminium foils all over the place. The map's pretty small, nowhere does it appear in actual Overwatch, so on.

I was a Bastion fighting off this demonic Sombra (AI; it was NOT a human player). Even if my DPS outruns her and she couldn't hack me, she would somehow still jump up on me and killed me near instantly. The creepy twist is, by the time my health reached zero, I couldn't see the Killcam, it won't let me see the Bastion getting dismantled (i.e. his death animation); the game would froze at that frame while increasing the volume to 200 (obviously uptick from Windows' 100 limit). This went on for several 1v1 with her until, somehow, she just disappeared. There was no one else.

I moved around to one of the doors, which opened and lead to a small walkway. On a wall was this bluish-girl (like Cortana from Halo, but not holographic) tied up by some sort of biomass (I suspect it was Flood), whose face was all messed up, and everytime I approached "her/it", it screamed and convulsed violently.



Then I woke up. I have no idea what I ate. I was in my university dorm, so I sure as hell didn't drink anything; and I was away from Overwatch for like a good few days when that dream happened.

TL;DR: Overwatch got horrifying (not exactly demonic), I felt like I was in it being killed. It also felt like sleep paralysis.
