REPLICANT -- A genetically engineered creature composed entirely of organic substance. Animal replicants (animoids) were developed first for use as pets and beasts of burden after most real animals became extinct. Later, humanoid replicants were created for military purposes and for the exploration and colonization of space. The Tyrell Corp. recently introduced the Nexus 6, the supreme replicant -- much stronger and faster than, and virtually indistinguishable from, real human beings. Earth law forbids replicants on the planet, except in the huge industrial complex where they are created. The law does not consider replicants human and therefore accords them no rights or protection.
SKIN JOB -- slang, synonymous with "replicant".
why you shouldn't get to know me...
1. i'm a chronic insomiac.
2. my memory is shit. i won't remember your name after meeting you. in fact, i may forget it after years of friendship. i think this may be attributed to fun fact number 1.
3. i've smoked for 13 years. i quit once for 5 days but started smoking again after i mysteriously lost $150 at barnes and noble. i've never hacked anything up due to smoking. i've convinced myself that my lungs require the tar and chemicals from cigarettes to hold together.
4. i hate talking on the phone.
5. i can't do the 6 times table in my head. except for 6 x 4 = 24. don't know why, just can't do it.
