Created by Agent Fulgore (2020-01-20 @ 02:34 AM) Addendum 2020-01-20 Agent Fulgore's Note #1: Alright, we can use these to our advantage as they are deemed WMDs. But they must be carefully use as they are extremely volatile and powerful. They're memory hacks that work on anybody, so be extra careful of what you inject into someone's mind as the long-term effects can vary. Cognitohazard are anomalies that affect you when you percieve them - if it does something when it's felt, smelt, tasted, heard or seen, it's a cognitohazard. Infohazard is an anomaly that affects you when you know something about it; the information about it triggers the anomaly, not direct perception of it. A cognitohazardous document will be triggered as soon as you look at it, but an infohazardous one won't do anything until you understand it. Memetic hazards are (imo) a sub-classification of infohazards, being ones that show a noteworthy capacity and focus to spreading as much as possible. If you see or hear it and you die it's a cognitohazard. If you know it and you die it's an infohazard. If it's a self spreading idea that makes you die it's a memetic hazard. A cognitohazard is something that poses a danger to any subject that perceives it with any of our five physical senses sight (visual), hearing (auditory), smell (olfactory), taste (gustatory), touch (tactile). This applies to both things that cause physical harm as well as things that cause psychological damage, but only in a way that would be anomalous. A bright light that causes blindness would not be a cognitohazard, nor would a sharp edge that cuts you when you touch it. A sound that causes you to bleed from every pore or a smell that causes you to go insane would be a cognitohazard. Agent Fulgore's Note #2: The ones below this note are ones that WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL OF, as certain women or whatever, use them against people to keep them under their control. It was used on almost all of us in AotD. So when you see these, you can counter attack them with a cognitohazard, infohazard or memetic hazard. You can also attempt a conversion of character which does not have a high percentage of success. Worth the risk if you have immunity against it's rub-off effects. --[Start of Relationship Infohazards/Cognitohazards]-- I love you so much. I am going to isolate you from everyone who loves you so the only person you have is me. I love you so much. I am going to keep you small so that I never risk losing you. I love you so I will undermine you so that you stay with me. I love you but I don’t trust you. I love you and for some reason I can no longer trust myself. I love you and I am afraid of you. I love you and I can’t talk to you. I love you and I can’t tell you the truth. I love you and you know exactly how to hurt me. I love you so I am going to constantly criticize you - you know. So I can make you better. I love you and feel you love me only when we are locked in a battle. We have to be fighting for me to feel you still care. I love you so I will forget what is important to me so we can do only what is important to you. You would if you loved me. I love you and you exhaust me. I love you and I’m angry because you are not making me happy. I love you and I want everything to forever stay the same. --[End of Relationship Infohazards/Cognitohazards]--
