Welcome to Retrospec™, the last social media network you will ever need. You are one of the few selected to test this exciting new platform based on our cutting-edge algorithms. Less than two hundred invitations have gone out, and membership is not currently open to the public. However, we hope you will come to see how useful Retrospec™ is, given time. We have for your use a variety of features such as text, voice, video, and image posts. We encourage you to explore our many options. Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given. As a reminder, everything besides uploading a profile picture and information was locked until this post. Usernames are the character's full real AU names, not aliases or chosen nicknames or usernames, and seemed to have filled themselves in; nothing characters do can change or obscure their names currently. Oddly, profile pictures still cannot be swapped out at this time, so hopefully you took a good one.

there is something ironic in this, so help me

Dave have you ever heard of an app that plays peekaboo with tech support
because you have one
we all* have one
installed right now





*all as in whatever 200 or less poor unfortunates got tagged for this "test"

[parodeity]

whoa really
wait
what
are you antagonizing some poor support dude yuri
haha shit
but what do you mean by peekaboo how literal are you being

[catsudon]

two whole support people i'm equal opportunity
aka i asked to escalate so this is the supervisor
when she's looking at my phone and scrolling through there's no retrospec

she hands it back
and look, i'm typing to you

( on retrospec. which, in restrospect, he feels is obvious. )

[parodeity]

so what kind of "are you crazy" looks are you getting right now
like
are they giving you worried looks
just out of curiosity

i mean man dirk couldnt get rid of it so thats
extremely weird
maybe we should test if it disappears when you hand it to anyone?
like will it be there if you hand it to me?

[catsudon]

the kind that also goes "you are annoying" and "how do we make this poor kid go away"
slightly worried looks
largely harried looks
it's a skill

uhhhh good plan i haven't done that yet
even if anyone here did have the app i dont think they want to admit it right now

( it would mean aligning with the insistent punk with the pointless request to find a program that everyone else swears doesn't exist )

[parodeity]

well we can swap phones before practice later and see if that does shit or not
no need to go out of our way for it ust yet

also that does sound like a skill
are you sure you dont want to commit to a career as an internet troll
youd be good at it
and i mean that in the best way possible

[catsudon]

sure, seems easy enough

you know you're the second person to mention trolling to me today
the first seems to think i should know who he is
actually, question:
what is "fuzzy"
and who is kurt wagoner?
anyway thanks but no thanks
im not committed to the way of the troll
not unless retrospec steps up to thought-texting
then it'd probably be inevitable

[parodeity]

*just not ust
im surprised you didnt leap on that i would have

oh right you dont really watch tv
fuzzy is his character on a tv show
hes an actor
and apparently on whatever this is
also if we go thought-texting route i will die
possibly via my own assistance
we should talk wills if that ever becomes a thing

[catsudon]

i'm trying to prove i'm not a candidate for troll
i had to give it to you
it was very, very hard
to resist

oh
ooooh
okay that's why he thought i was messing around with him
oh well
and if this goes the thought-texting route
actually that would be gross
super gross
death wont help well probably haunt the phones
still thought-texting

[parodeity]

bro you didnt have to resist
that kind of opening is basically a sirens song i get it
i wouldnt have been able to stop myself
im in awe a little bit

yeah probably
idk why tho
i mean the shows fun but not everyone has seen every show
shrugs
ok wtf are you getting all tumblr horror post on me here for
though if we haunt the phones
i call dibs on the haunting
thatd be fun
man we could freak people out so much?

[catsudon]

i'm stubborn, what can i say
sometimes it's awe inspiring
othertimes i'm told its very annoying

besides isnt it missing the point to address ust

no idea
no skin off my nose either way
oh like it was that bad
mr. dibs-on-haunting
already planning on how to freak out the living
zalgo text messages left on homescreens y/n?

[parodeity]

lmao yes
which makes that the best joke

yyyyyyyyy
see this is why were bros
you get it
you understand the best thing to do with your afterlife
troll the fuck out of other people

[catsudon]

eyeroll

there's nothing left if you can't troll people from the afterlife
the one and only time i'll accept the career change
besides i cant call grandpa if i dont so it's multipurpose
