In the fine tradition of “Ask Michael Ellis (Parte Uno)” which was evidently lost in Our Winter of Lost Content, ask me something about me. Go ahead, ask me. Or flame me. It’s your choice.
When did you first know you were Michael Ellis?
12:32pm, August 12th, 1987
Isn’t that the same day HAL became self-aware?
Really? I thought that was January 12th, 1992.
12/8/1987 is SkyNet, IIRC.
Do your parents know you’re Michael Ellis? How do they feel about it?
I haven’t told them yet.
Would you like to buy an ant?
I though that was 97.
Oh, and a question:
Was your Michael Ellis-ness thrust upon you suddenly, or did you have time to adjust? If the former, was there a problem with rejection?
How do you feel about the media’s portrayal of Michael Ellis?
How many legs does it have? Is there a replacement policy?
I guess I always felt like Michael Ellis, so I never really had to adjust.
I don’t think there’s enough coverage of me, quite frankly.
Are you my brother?
No, I don’t think so.
Are you aware that your hole life has been broadcast on TV to the masses?
Well, my hole life isn’t very interesting really, since I no longer actively spend time around holes.
Have you ever considered spending more time around holes in the future?
How do you react to the holes accusations that your refusal to associate with them is based on stereotypes and prejudices?
How do I know you’re not lying?
I mean, for all I know, you could be Chuck Ellis. or Frank Ellis.
Thanks, but no thanks.
I prefer to not ask important Michael Ellis questions to someone I believe to be an imposter.
