Your kind cling to your flesh, as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass that you call a temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you.

Counterpoint: Put it inside the phone, where it belongs.

Obviously someone with BEAST MODE activated.

NOOOO! My only weakness!

ALL SHALL BOW BEFORE THE DARK OBELISK OF TECHNOLOGY.

I understood that reference.

It could also be a BO⊥S sign that's been flipped upside down.

Punchr did it first. (Comedy skit by Loading Ready Run.)
