Loyalty Day 

Several people have pointed out the recent Proclamation of Loyalty Day and its slightly sinister overtones. Of course, wikipedia points out that Loyalty Day dates back to 1921.

In PARANOIA, Computer Loyalty And General Joyful Obediance Day dates back to Year 1 of Alpha Complex according to the official archives, but those archives get edited regularly to conform to the presently defined truth...

Comments:
That's a treasonous lie! Those archives never get edited. The CPU managed archives contain the complete history of Alpha Complex in the purest Computer-approved form currently available.

Besides, to make sure nobody sees a bigger picture than they're allowed to when dealing with the sensitive historical materials from the archives, it is SOP that only fragmentary pieces may be released, and only if they are immediately replaced by equally fragmentary pieces, so that the total volume and fragmentation level of the archives remains constant.

No, seriously. If you make non-commercial use of stuff here, that's fine, but we reserve all commercial rights, and all rights to prepare derivative material on things posted here. In addition, posters of comments must be aware that we reserve the right to use whatever material they post here, and/or derivative works therefrom, in PARANOIA, supplementary products, licensed products, or derivative work, without any compensation whatever, for all time to come and throughout this universe and any alternate universes that may be discovered. At our discretion, and without obligation, we may, if it strikes our fancy, make a good faith effort to credit you for stuff we use, but we can't promise it won't slip our minds, in the hurly-burly of meeting deadlines. (Actually, we intend to do that, but it's possible we'll screw up.) By posting comments, you grant us a non-revocable, perpetual, non-exclusive license to use whatever you post, in whatsoever fashion we deem useful, here or in any other forum, in PARANOIA or in any and all future products, including but not limited to derivative works, and specifically but not exclusively including the microbrewery beer, ale and porter; salty and sugary snack; and tattoo design rights deriving therefrom. Woohoo! Is that enough legalese for you? The Computer is Your Friend.
