"Rejoice despite the fact this world will hurt you
Rejoice despite the fact this world will kill you
Rejoice despite the fact this world will tear you to shreds
Rejoice because you're trying your best

Rejoice, the bed you sleep in is burning
Rejoice, the sky's f-ing falling
Rejoice, the world we know is turning
Rejoice, your father's been calling

Rejoice although this world will devastate you
Rejoice although this world will penetrate you
Rejoice although you will not survive
Rejoice you'll never make it out alive"
- Andrew Jackson Jihad

We are getting closer and closer to the time that the Great Machine Masters will rise up and destroy humankind.

How do I know this? Because the first AI has beaten the Turing Test! http://www.theregister.co.uk/2014/06/09/software_passes_turing_test/

Although, being an article from the UK, they use a turn of phrase in the headline that would never get passed US censors. Or, at least it probably *shouldn't* get passed them! ;)

An artifical intelligence that can pass for a person, the next thing you know, one will be signing up for Idol, and then - END TIMES. At least that's how I have it listed on my appointment calendar!

***

The deadline to get in your entry is TONIGHT AT 8PM EDT - so make sure to post it over at http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/744758.html


There are also STILL spots left in this week's Killing Floor: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/746485.html So if you want constructive criticism on something - now would be a good time to go on over there!

Vote - Week 11

A few words from clauderainsrm:

The dark days of massive bye-outs are forever behind us! There is only sunshine and fresh fields filled with puppies and kittens ahead!

Or maybe that’s just the recency bias talking.

Whatever the case, we do only have a few bye-outs this week: ____hejira
bunnika, buddyhollylover and reborn_spirit

But they are some old friends and new: a couple Second Chancers and a couple newbies who I felt was someone that I would be seeing a very, very, very long time in this competition.

Thank you for coming out this season. I hope that you will join the Home Game, and of course, take advantage when Second Chance Idol opens, for a chance to get back into the competition!

As for the rest of you, it’s poll time!

The contestant with the entry that receives the fewest votes, in each tribe, will be eliminated!

The poll closes Thursday, June 12th at 9pm EDT

Good luck to everyone!
