Most likely, at least once a day you delete a letter,
number, or even whole words and paragraphs from your
documents on the computer. It's a simple matter for you, but
have you ever thought about the consequences of your action?
Do you have any idea where you're sending those characters
that you so casually rejected? The answer varies depending
on whom you ask.
The deleted characters are shipped to Battle Creek,
Michigan, where they're made into Pop-Tart filling; this
explains why Pop-Tarts are so flammable, while cheap
imitations are not as flammable.
Every time you hit the delete key you unleash a tiny monster
inside the cursor, who tears the poor unsuspecting
characters to shreds, drinks their blood, then eats them,
bones and all.
The characters are not real. They exist only on the screen
when they are needed, as concepts, so to delete them is
merely to de-conceptualize them.
If a character has lived rightly, and its karma is good,
then after it has been deleted it will be reincarnated as a
different, higher character. Those funny characters above
the numbers on your keyboard will become numbers, numbers
will become letters, lowercase letters will become
uppercase. If a character's karma is not so good, then it
will move down the above scale, ultimately becoming the
lowest of characters--a space.
Who cares? All characters are the same, swirling in a vast
sea of meaningless nothingness. It doesn't really matter if
they're on the page, deleted, undeleted, underlined, etc.
It's all the same. More characters should delete themselves.
You've been DELETING them? Can't you hear them SCREAMING?
Little innocent characters and baby lowercase letters have
rights too!
All the characters written on a PC and then deleted go
straight to PC hell. If you're using a PC, you can probably
see the deleted characters, because you're in PC hell also.
