    This is absolutely my favorite strip of them all. I’m a big fan of SCP, and this one is just special… I’ve always wanted to say it, but never had a better avenue to do so: You are the best! :D

    damn… that’s just so damn good..

    I come back to this comic every few months or so. It is depressing and wonderful. A masterpiece in and of itself.

    I have never left a post on any webcomic before, not even the ones I read daily. This… Is… BRILLIANT!
    I am so glad I found your strip!

    This one sent my imagination off and away for a few minutes. “Brilliant” is right.

    Funny …….cuz it’s true.

    True? There are boxes like this in the real world ?

    I’d like to see this as a (very) short film… Moody and atmospheric, with that guy from american beauty doing the voiceover.

    Of course its true. Just that in real life the “boxes” aren’t so obvious.

  11. Silfedac

    I’d have to say that either this or the one with the dragonfly cameras is my favorite.

  12. The False Cognate

    This reminds me of “A Softer World”
    pretty genius though, kudos.

    This is my favorite SCP strip. Every word is exactly the right one, and the concept is just… wow. I’d be poorer for not having read this strip.

  14. Buddhaofwar

    reminds me a bit of ‘A Brave New World’ by Aldous Huxley. That baby is definitely an Alpha… maybe a Beta.

    I like how it says “They tell lies, they tell beautiful lies” in the same panel with the baby being told it is a “smart baby” and that it will “grow up to do important things.”

    Smith:Yeah…?

  17. Nemo

    Reminds of the Parking Lot is Full. Which is a good thing.

  18. Crusader1089

    I can’t get the “They Tell lies, they tell beautiful lies…” out of my head!
    Its just so well written.

  19. Chance

    I just want to express my love for this strip- the last panel is just so powerful. Brilliant, good sir. Just brilliant.

    The boxes are a representation of the internal critic in all of us. The voice that punishes us the voice that holds us back, the one that lies to us so that we may never wake up from the comforting autonomous lives we like to think we live.

    Is it called “The Rationalizer?”
