Title inspired by the short story by Terry Bisson - They're Made Out of Meat
I liked John Dies At The End because it does sort of present the case "what if a contemporary, cynical person was exposed to an existential crisis" and I find their approach a lot more relatable.
Like I don't want to brag about what strong stuff I'm made of but Lovecraft would have cant-breath-panic-attacks because black people existed or would need to hide in his house for several days because a woman spoke to him.
Like I feel like some Sims would be mind blown about it, but a lot more would be pissed. Can you imagine if God showed up, proved He was real, then explained that all your suffering is for His entertainment?
