Author notes
I had ideas for an "In love with a machine" scenario...
The ideas were all pretty different, but based around the same, so I wrote a text with all the ideas wrapped up in one... So, could you read any of the ideas out of the text?
- A man in love with a girl in a coma, needing machines to stay alive.
- Someone who spends all his time on playing games and such, on a machine, lacking social skills
- Someone hooked on artificial methods of receiving pleasure, lacking human love

I dont think you should put "Im in love with a machine" so many times I had to just read the right side of it and I understood in perfectly without reading that over and over but it was a good thought
-
though the repitition was a bit distracting, the ideas and images were quite affecting. Overall, a good work. I like it.

Lots of questions...
Suppose anyone could buy a machine, more competent,
more skilled, more adaptable than any human could
ever be. In every category, for every desire, every purpose. Would extinction be the result?

Excellent
Reminds me of a NIN song. Also reminds of using drugs to get over a bad relationship. Dunno if that's the kind of response you want in your comment box, but...

Damn
what a way to think about things.
This is grand. I loved this read. At first I thought it might be funny, but as I read it grew more serious. Great job with this. ~ Kerri
You should make a contest with that as the prompt, or something.
