In Episode #425 - The Matrix: Revolution, Elliott mentioned the Terry Bisson story "They're Made Out Of Meat".
In case you haven't seen it, I just wanted to point out a (very) short film based on the story starring, among others, Tom Noonan.
I really love how it showcases both the how aliens don't "get" human culture, and how human behaviors could simply be off-putting to outsiders.

Speed-friending and other "icebreaker" events should be called _Bisson rounds_.

Because they're made out of meet.

Is it normal to be tearing up like three pages into the late Terry Bisson’s Fire on the Mountain?

@davidaugust Awww damn. "Made Out of Meat" is an unforgettable classic. I also love "Dead Man's Curve," a very funny short story he wrote about a guy who discovers a tiny alternate universe he can only get to in his Chevy Cavalier.

Terry Bisson wrote an amazing short story that's been around the internet since the internet has existed.

Maybe you already know it, maybe not.
Here it is:

I just learned that Terry Bisson passed away today.
