DATE: 2016-08-19

CONTEXT: Special Containment Procedures for SCP-2006 dictate that it be shown a low-quality horror movie each month. Because the supply of such movies is due to become exhausted within the next five years, the Project Lead for SCP-2006, Dr. Louef, suggested that the Foundation produce additional low-quality movies in-house. The first film of this kind, Warmageddon: Cataclysmic Assault on Earth!!!, a 126-minute incoherent mishmash of "Z-movie" tropes, was shown to SCP-2006. Afterwards, Dr. Louef discussed the movie with SCP-2006 to gauge its reactions and determine what stylistic changes, if any, need to be made to future Foundation-made content for SCP-2006.

[BEGIN LOG]

Dr. Louef: Hello, SCP-2006. What did you think of the new movie?

SCP-2006: I felt like it had a different touch to it than the movies you used to show me. I liked it! FEAR ME, DOCTOR!

(Dr. Louef falls to the floor, clutching his chest.)

Dr. Louef: Oh my! You're quite horrifying today!

(Dr. Louef stands up.)

Dr. Louef: Could you tell me what exactly what you like and didn't like about the movie? We want to make sure the movies we show you are as scary as possible.

SCP-2006: I think the coolest part was when the zombies built a replica of Archimedes' solar-powered death ray and fired it at a forest. That was really interesting and clever! Did you think of that, Dr. Louef? HA! IT DOESN'T MATTER! FEAR ME! YOU WILL FEAR ME! I AM THE MIGHTY RO-MAN!

Dr. Louef: Let me out of here! I'm going to die of fright! Yes, that was supposed to be scary, but nothing could ever be as scary as you!

SCP-2006: Haha, yeah. I know, right? Say, I just had an idea…

Special Containment Procedures: The following containment procedures are considered provisional, pending further analysis by the SCP-XXXX research teams, one of which is stationed at each of Sites-95 and -98. The semi-abstract substrate of SCP-XXXX poses a challenge to direct containment or neutralization of SCP-XXXX, and containment is therefore to focus on detecting SCP-XXXX-A instances which pose exceptional danger to normality due to their incongruity with rational induction and deduction, and the development and dissemination of antimemes against such instances.

Systems which perform routine scans of the human noosphere, in whole or in part, are, wherever feasible, to be programmed to detect novel SCP-XXXX-A instances with informational length greater than 10kbm². Current heuristics for novel SCP-XXXX-A detection are estimated to detect fewer than 5% of instances, regardless of length. Based on manual analysis by humans, the false positive rate of automated novel SCP-XXXX-A detections is believed to be about 96%, although extremely large instances (length >= ~300kbm), which tend to pose the most danger, only have a false positive rate of about 25%. Efforts to detect non-novel instances of SCP-XXXX-A are currently suspended.

All staff cleared to access this file are to report to the Memetics Department³ if they encounter any seemingly coherent memeplex which combines two or more apparently incongruous worldviews.
