[video] Virus Alert
[ Good morning, Badgernet! Should you click on this video, you shall be greeted by a room full of steampunk zappy things. The man standing in the middle of it all regards his audience with a slightly unhinged grin. ]
I've done it! I've finally done it! [ He grabs a nearby jar full of electrified blue liquid and what looks like a handful of copper coins. ] And they mocked me for thinking it could be done... You all are to witness the marvelous union of alchemy and science!
[ Here he tosses the coins into the jar, amplifies the electrical current and--
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP.
The whole scene glitches out. The man freezes between one and two frames like a lagging frame, abruptly turning into a more disoriented version of himself for a split second before the screen goes black. A string of numbers pops up in one corner... ]
01101000 01100101 01101100 01110000 01101101 01100101 01101001 01101101 01110011 01110100 01110101 01100011 01101011
[ And they linger there as the scene returns to normal, almost exactly where we left off... Except... Well, even the mad scientist is staring at the empty jar in bewilderment. ]
... Huh. Those were supposed to turn to gold, not vaporize.
No matter! [ He sets the jar on a nearby table next to a pile of gilded coins that were not there before the glitch. ] I'm sure I'll figure it out with a few more experiments...
