Welcome to the wonderful world of Mr. Resistor. There are no "free refills" or "free rides". Many of Mr. Resistors friends don't understand him. He is destined for a lonely life inside a Nintendo Game Cube, regulating the flow of electrons without ever receiving a "thank you". As time goes on, Mr. Resistor will be deemed "obsolete". The humans will sentence him to a life in a landfill, never to feel the electrons coursing through his body again. But as the humans rejoice in their victory, Mr. Resistor will plan his destruction of the human race. Years from then, life as humans know it will cease to exist.
It's five minutes to midnight.
