Priest Claims Demons Have Learnt To Send Threatening Text Messages

[Ronnie Jersey]

Only a few years after the telephone was first demonstrated in Stockholm in 1877, the general public was thus aware of the new invention. At first, phones were found in general stores, telegraph offices and drug stores. The general store received a telephone number such as 1 or 2 and acted as a news center for the village. People went to the store and asked if anyone had phoned. If so, the proprietor would read the message.

That sounds so ancient today - we would probably be totally lost without our phones and computers!

Probably. . . no Brush, no Paint?

There's always a pencil. Always.

So if they are all staring into their smartphones they won't have time to poker people up the bum. Can only be a good thing.

Bit off topic but I found this quote from a talk I had to give on computers a while back.

“Where a calculator on the ENIAC is equipped with 18,000 vacuum tubes and weighs 30 tons, computers in the future may have only 1000 vacuum tubes and perhaps weigh 1.5 tons.”

A sensible answer. Indeed, how could one sign a pact with the devil without a pencil ? Without pencils, demons would struggle to reach their soul quota and they would get fired from hell. Therefore we can conclude from this discussion that demons necessarily have pencils.

I remember disk drives that size from my first job, when I worked at the Bank of Ireland.
That computer was an old ICL from the late 60s. Everything weighed a ton.

Even if the demon doesn't have a pencil actually about their non-corporeal personage, there is always one to be found between the sofa cushions.

I bet they use Tesco Mobile, it just seems such a demonic thing to do.
