We are Boring. You will be assimilated or something. Resistance is futile, but whatever.

I have no strong feelings about this one way or the other.
- What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality!?
- Beige alert.
first: delete the default cube.
- someone blenders ^^
  
  Then you will either be assimilated by a teapot or a monkey.
  
  well I dabble with it from time to time.
"Resistance is just, like, an opinion, man."
- Shut the fuck up, Wesley!
They’ve gone plaid, no wait, they’ve gone taupe!
- They say taupe is soothing.

We are the Beige Borg. You will be decolorized. We will not add your distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will become bland like us. Resistance is boring.
It's like a genre mix of Star Trek and Minecraft.
So in combination:
- I was thinking more 'cardboard box,' but an actual cardboard box didn't look right to me.
We are the bored. Your memes will be assimilated. Resistance is down voted.
Is that made of rice or krispy?
- Unseasoned tofu
  
  Considered an Earth delicacy on Vulcan.

This is what happens when the Borg assimilates too many tiktok moms.
Børgenkjübbe by Ikea.
They left the texture on the other side of the transwarp conduit
The Central Bureaucracy. Resistance is futile. And so is compliance.
They boldly discovered mass media and a large part of the net.
It’s the 80’s. If you want something rendered in real time, this is the best you’re going to get. Be happy there’s a beveled edge.
I feel as if spheres are more boring than cubes, especially in space. The universe is filled with spheres; not so many perfect cubes.
- Spherical spaceships are harder to build. The Borg are all about efficiency.
  
  The sphere is the most efficient use of volume in space. Rectangles are only convenient for humans, and the Borg should not be concerned about convenience.
  If the Borg were really about efficiency, they'd build spheres. But spheres are more boring, which comes back to my original point.
  
  And the Boring are all about keeping the sides straight, but if they tell you why, it will take three hours and a lot of math.
- Yeah, but the spheres are usually pretty interesting.
Why am I so fascinated with it, it's so warm, makes me feel... Happy? I must study it more. The cravings of it are getting out of control, I have to make a golden cube sculpture. With anything around me. Even dirt. Praise the cube. Hail the cube.
that sand block is falling
