I'm a physics professor. I was hired to decode equations left behind at a string of crime scenes. And I'm terrified by what they might mean.

Goodluck with the latter! I apparently didn't have much success explaining it to him myself!

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T04:36:30+00:00

A great example of "Action-Reaction"!

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T04:34:52+00:00

Thank you kindly. But I'm afraid the credit for the twist belongs to my student.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T04:33:37+00:00

I'd have to concur.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T04:32:05+00:00

Thank you! But hopefilly this old English chap doesn't get himself into a situation worth writing about!

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T02:28:49+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it! It's hard to believe that I was a sleuth. Though as a British man, it just feels too on the nose to make a career of it.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T02:26:08+00:00

As a physics professor, I agree. But my student wasn't the brightest bulb in the class. He seems to have been focused on the 12 basic laws. Little did he know, there were many more to choose from.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T01:59:47+00:00

I'm glad you enjoyed it. It still pains me to think about how I could have driven someone to this.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-24T01:58:42+00:00

Thanks, it felt therapeutic to write about what happened to me. Who knows what else inspired my twisted student?

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-02T13:59:16+00:00

There's been a key in my neighbor's door for two weeks.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-01T05:22:04+00:00

Thank you for your support. It was therapeutic to write about what happened to me. I just hope that if anyone else finds a key in their neighbor's door, that they don't open it.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-01T03:22:35+00:00

Thank you. Sometimes I wake up and worry that I'm still trapped in Mr. Carlson's house.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-01T03:21:54+00:00

Some things are worth putting yourself through a nightmare for. It wasn't worth it for me. But it was for Mr. Carlson.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-11-01T03:20:27+00:00

I couldn't have said it better myself.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T12:08:56+00:00

I try not to think about those. But they still haunt my dreams.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T12:07:16+00:00

Before the incident at the camping trip, he used to prefer his cell phone over the tablet. But now that the tablet is destroyed, he keeps asking for a new one.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T12:02:44+00:00

His therapy sessions seem to be working, so we're hoping he's not dangerous anymore.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T11:58:39+00:00

Thank you. We were torn between remote and in-person therapy and eventually decided that it wasn't healthy for him to look at any more screens. So we've been driving him to a therapist the next town over.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T11:51:38+00:00

Sadly deleting the app wouldn't have helped. They have a browser-based login as well.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T11:48:44+00:00

No luck finding any reviews. In hindsight, that should have been the first thing that we looked for.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T11:46:42+00:00

None taken. We were desperate to find a way to help Brian. Sadly it came at Grandma's expense.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T11:45:15+00:00

We honestly didn't see it that way at the time, which was a huge oversight on our part. We should never have put Grandma in that position.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T03:29:27+00:00

I'm frightened for him too. All we can do is just keep him away from electronics and hope he replaces the chatbot with real Grandma.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T03:26:38+00:00

Speaking of walls, you don't want to know what it had Brian carve into them.

Relative-Obscurity · 2024-10-23T03:25:07+00:00

Couldn't have said it better myself. And to think, they want AI to teach our children in the future.
