[sdiy] Don't Touch

[matti]

Voice. setup a microphone, then extract information using your favorite
look-what's-up-my-sleeve synthesis processes. Something more advanced than
the typical envelope extractor would allow for, well, more advanced
control.

enjoy

I finally got to the toilet paper, but couldn't find the end of the roll.
I grabbed at the paper, clawing at it, but it felt like smoke. I
eventually managed to grab a fistful, and looking down at my hand, I
couldn't see anything, but I knew I had the paper. Somehow. I managed to
wipe, somehow, and while glancing down I noticed my legs had disappeared.
Oh, no, it's ok, there they are. No, they've gone again. How the fuck am I
supposed to wipe when my asshole keeps disappearing?
