How to have a great evening

  1. Prepare a hot beverage, if you’re so inclined.
  2. Dim your lights
  3. Play some fitting music (channel Doomed on soma.fm)
  4. Read I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream

When I found out that it is only 13 pages long, I decided to read it as soon as possible, and sent it to my Kindle. Then I went on to read this Saturday Crapshoot on PC Gamer which spoiled the whole plot and ending immediately.

Damn.

But, oh well, never mind. I like listening to soma.fm channels when working or reading, because they seldom contain distracting vocals that would ruin my atmosphere. I picked the “Doomed” one, because of its hilarious description:

Doomed: Dark industrial/ambient music for tortured souls.

A few pages into the story I heard a voice, repeating one sentence over and over again,

Es gibt keine Lösung keinen Ausweg keinen Sinn, Es gibt keine Lösung keinen Ausweg keinen Sinn

“There’s no solution, no way out, no sense”. Shame I didn’t catch the song’s name, it fit perfectly. Only later I realized that most lyrics that came up in Doomed were in German; I guess their singers must be really depressed. :)

Update Dec 2019: The song was Goethes Erben - Keine Lösung
