Hoosiers Only: A Sci-Fi Rambling

By Brett & Tay 

Baylor Enterprises, LLP

 

In the year AD 13,000 there lived a near perfect human being. She was part of the top secret government operation Hoosier, and was virtually flawless in all aspects. However, the scientists who engineered her made a fatal mistake. The test subject had difficulty staying out of the bathroom for more than 5 minutes at a time. This has drastic implications for water conservation. Indiana is a dry state (pun intended) and Taylor used all of the water. However, she met her therapist/lawyer/guru/badass and he was able to impart his wisdom onto her.

 

She made impressive gains, even being able to stay out of the bathroom for a full hour. 

 

His only fatal flaw was that he was from New York State.

 

However, she was still not perfect hence Brett teamed up with the scientists from Operation Hoosier to mix Taylor’s near perfect DNA with Brett’s perfect bladder.

 

There was only one issue: Brett desperately needed to become a Hoosier.

 

The resulting “creature” exhibited Taylor’s beauty, intelligence, kindness, and honesty, but was also endowed with Brett’s magnificent penchant for staying out of the bathroom for days at a time.

 

The scientists were very impressed, and decided that all future humans should be cloned using the hybrid Brett/Taylor DNA. They specified that the cloning could only take place in Indiana because only Hoosiers can survive and procreate.

 

The Operation Hoosier scientists decided to come up with a better name for the creature creating business inspired by the ingenious partners Brett and Taylor. They called it Baylor Enterprises, LLP, so they could always remember their founders, BTA & TC. The first creature/creation was named Baylor Abraham Abrahamsen. The following creations were just numbers but were told to repopulate the earth with the perfect genetics. 

 

There eventually were an infinite number of Baylor Enterprises clones and eventually the weak people with either Brett’s ugly (Brett is bias to this statement, but Taylor does not agree with this) or Taylor’s weak bladder were weeded out by Darwinian principles.

The Bleak Nature of Life

The Bleak Nature of Life

10:35 - 10:15 am July 24, 2025

 

You cast me an ominous glance

The beginning of our dark romance

 

There likely will be no other chance

Life is but a brief and dreary dance

 

Upon your pillow you said I love you

As the black of the night

Slowly overtook the blue

 

Life is indeed dreary

And hence

Our romance is strange

And eerie

 

This is not a rom com

It’s more like the detonation 

Of an atom bomb

 

Indeed it is explosive

But your heart may become 

Corrosive

 

A poem doesn’t have to rhyme

Perhaps we have very little time

 

An aneurysm follows our kiss

It’s just a fleeting bliss

 

Because you are so paranoid

Even though you say 

You are not annoyed

 

Or perhaps a heart attack

I’ll never get to say I love you back

 

A pulmonary embolism

A major cataclysm

 

A stroke of death

Or a stroke of luck

But that won’t happen

We’re fucked

 

I’m not reckless with your heart

I wasn’t even from the start

 

But you were reckless with mine

We talked around the time

Of St. Valentine

 

Valentine’s Day is a hoax

And life is but a cosmic joke

 

Doesn’t matter what is your sign

Perhaps you’ll never be mine

 

You are too negative

Maybe take a sedative

 

You are a valuable asset to my life

And you’re a valuable asset to my company

 

(Even though I’ll never take you as my wife)

Such is the bleak nature of life
