What is your favorite sandwich?
  • Turkey, ham, Swiss cheese, mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, fresh bread.

    How to layer it:

    • Bread < bottom
    • Mayo
    • Turkey
    • Ham
    • Mustard
    • Cheese
    • Lettuce
    • Tomato
    • Mayo
    • Bread < top

    Important steps:

    1. Salt and pepper the lettuce and tomato.
    2. Wrap sandwich tightly in some form of deli wrap style paper, the slight pressure ensures the ingredients spread out correctly.
    3. Leave to stand for 5 or so minutes after wrapping, allows the bread to moisten from the mayo.

    Go nuts with some artisan ingredients if you can afford them. Speciality mustards and mayo, add some red peppers that were soaked in oil, special types of bread (rye, oat etc), different cheeses, skip the meat if you prefer not to have it also, but if you do, you can also exchange the turkey and ham for pastrami beef for a delicious salty alternative.

    Sincerely,

    a sandwich and deli fanatic.

  • [WP] You are the last human left alive, not because everyone else is dead, but because someone needs to maintain the servers they all uploaded themselves to
  • I should press the button I know I should. Why should they get to live happily ever after while I have to watch over them in a world they destroyed? I can’t even see the stars because the night sky is polluted beyond repair. Ash and radioactive dust clog the filters in my breathing suit anyway. Why should I press the damn button?

    In their virtual world, they sit amongst other lifeforms that they treated so terribly in reality. Virtual representations of species long since extinct, canis lupus familiaris, felis catus, and my own personal favourite, anas platyrhynchos, the mallard duck, I went to great lengths getting that uploaded to the servers databanks. They even have horses there. Large, majestic beasts that humanity enslaved and forced to charge into war for centuries. All gone now, gone with all the other good things that this planet gave to us. I should have pressed that button as soon as the last one of them left me, but here I sit, with an empty bottle in my hands, just staring at that button. I drank all the alcohol I could find and there’s no way for me to make any more.

    All I have left is the button and this cyanide capsule that a friend gave to me before he left to join the rest of them, a ghost without a shell. We were expected to maintain the servers so that humanity could live on forever, but each year that passed, the more the loneliness took over my colleagues. I swallow the slightly bitter pill and reach out with a shaky finger. They don’t deserve a second chance and neither do I. My finger misses the mark and I stumble out of the chair. Too much alcohol.

    They are already dead anyway and I’m running out of time. I could still go and join them, there is time for that at least, but is it better to exist in a false paradise than to live amongst your guilt? All I have to do is press the button and my consciousness will be uploaded to the servers. I will suffer no more. The other me would be welcomed as a hero. The last of humanity to hold the line. Would it really be me though? When I die here, will my consciousness continue in an uninterrupted stream or will the other me become the real me? Blood starts to drip from my nose. I press the button.
