# a plan 9 from outer space scientific term for when life appears a total cosmic absurdity akin to z grade sci fi flicks about aliens resurrecting the dead hopeless non places where idiots read from lines hastily scribbled on ir lab coats in smeared ball point where sound mics wobble in and out of shot bluffy trees and cardboard cemetery headstones wobble as researchers brush past them walking into scenes when it's night only to leave thirty seconds later into broad daylight in which 'a plan 9' suggests that earth's entire history is a low grade post-industrial side product of cheesy scientific insanity // republic of bob
