Hooli vs. Sweden: The Strike Saga

1 pointsby JoelJacobsonover 1 year ago
*[Scene: Pied Piper Office, watching the news about the strikes in Sweden on TV]*<p>*Dinesh*: (chuckling) &quot;Look at Gavin go. He&#x27;s not just burning bridges; he&#x27;s torching entire countries now.&quot;<p>*Gilfoyle*: &quot;I&#x27;m impressed, in a way. It takes a special kind of incompetence to unite an entire nation against you.&quot;<p>*Dinesh*: &quot;Do you think he knows he&#x27;s become Sweden&#x27;s Public Enemy Number One?&quot;<p>*Gilfoyle*: &quot;Knowing Gavin? He probably thinks they&#x27;re just passionate Hooli fans. The guy&#x27;s ego could eclipse the sun.&quot;<p>*[TV shows a clip of Swedish workers striking]*<p>*Dinesh*: &quot;I bet Gavin&#x27;s going to try and fix this with another one of his &#x27;brilliant&#x27; ideas. Like Hooli-branded winter coats for all the striking workers.&quot;<p>*Gilfoyle*: &quot;Or &#x27;Hooli Strikes Back&#x27; – a new VR experience where you get to fire union workers in virtual reality.&quot;<p>*Dinesh*: &quot;I wonder if we can get the live feed of the moment he realizes he&#x27;s screwed up. I&#x27;d pay good money for that.&quot;<p>*Gilfoyle*: &quot;I&#x27;ve already set up a notification. There&#x27;s no way I&#x27;m missing Gavin&#x27;s face when a country full of polite Swedes tells him to go to hell.&quot;<p>*Dinesh*: &quot;Poor Swedes. They were just minding their own business, inventing safe cars and meatballs, and then... Gavin happened.&quot;<p>*Gilfoyle*: &quot;If Gavin can single-handedly shut down Sweden, imagine what he could do if he actually had a clue.&quot;<p>*[Both share a knowing look and burst out laughing]*
