Brainwave Ouija

Just imagine communicating with your dead aunt...

Scientists have created a brain electrode interface by which people who are imagining writing words can output those words onto a screen.

Here we could have some fun. Two people's electrode imagined input with some suggested type words to spell out various phrases could yield some interesting results.

You could even suggest that the dead relative impressed upon either party the words and phrases that appear as a result.

       Yes. Then sometimes those words receive fishbones via that same interface.   

       // suggest that the dead relative impressed upon either party the words and phrases that appear as a result //   

       This idea reminds us of Borg implants, which are superior in every way. Implantable Earthling electrodes have not yet enabled us to wordlessly communicate with the Alexa-type device in our garage, a flaw which shall be rectified on Assimilation Day.
