my only scp opinion is that whenever somebody is getting really really angry in a video game text chat i just say ‘Did you know that world-renowned writer Stephen King once got hit by a car? Just something to consider’ and it invariably confuses them into chilling out
if anyone was ever curious as to how this came to be, a friend of mine ended up writing this after one day on discord where they had all been discussing game of thrones when it was a thing that was actively still coming out on tv and hadn’t gotten far enough to sour itself yet, and i had stephen king on the brain for some reason, and after tabbing in to read these long convos about something i didn’t know anything about or really understand in the slightest i was just thinking about how king was really hung up on that one time he got hit by a car to the point where he literally self-inserted himself as a character into the dark tower series and had it be a plot point that he was hit by a car, and in my brain i cobbled that into me both wanting to join into the conversation but also shitpost at the same time about a topic that a fair amount of us were at least passingly familiar with (that being stephen king)
after doing it multiple times that day, exactly word-for-word every single time, it ended up w/ me being asked if i was fine with it being used as a hook for an scp, lol. to this day it’s my only and proudest contribution to the internet and i’m glad it vaguely pops up every now and then like a pretty little dandelion so i can be reminded of the influence of my horrible posting
you have literally done more for society than any us marine
