I still think that my favorite urban legend/folklore fact is that there are certain areas in New Orleans where you cannot get a taxi late at night not because it isn’t safe, but because taxi companies have had recurring problems of picking up ghosts in those areas who are not aware that they are dead and disappearing from the cab before reaching the destination and therefore stiffing the driver on the fare causing a loss for the company.
Modern technology is making us anti-social!
Aliko Dangote, the richest man in Africa, has been tormented by a Brazilian man named Osvaldo for the last several years.
Greed and materialism don’t exist in the Institute. (okay)
The Advanced Systems division had plans for a vehicle like this. It ended up being more trouble than it was worth. (I think this in reference to the submarine)
The Institute’s founders frowned on television. They thought it was a detriment to science. (choosing to interpret this as “grad students were spending too many nights getting high and watching loony tunes)
Some of the scientists enjoy filmed entertainment. I have no use for it. (INSTITUTE MOVIE NIGHT IS CANON)
Why store corpses? This space could be put to more efficient use. (institute cremates?)
I was told a great writer once lived here. I’m not sure how anyone that wasn’t a scientist can be considered great. (for a long time, i interpreted this as “the institute frowns upon creative expression” but then i realized that x6 is actually just way too into scientists. missed storyline potential: rescue this awful man from the institute)
The medicine that was practiced here is almost barbaric compared to the Institute’s advances.
A place for infant humans. I’ve only seen one once. It was unsettling. (in response to a nursery. assuming the institute has a communal nursery.)
We sometimes find older-model synth parts in places like this. Scavengers are a constant threat to our surface work teams. (I think this one triggers in a warehouse.)
Doctor Karlin thinks the world’s oceans are probably filled with huge, mutated sea creatures.
People killed each other for food here. The Institute will never have those kinds of problems.
The SRB monitors all radio broadcasts in the Commonwealth. We think the Railroad might be sharing coded messages that way.
A single Institute holotape could hold all of the text in this library.
All of these computers put together wouldn’t match the processing power of one Institute terminal.
I’ve never understood this game. If the objective is to destroy the pins, why not just shoot them? (no bowling in the institute? or, just as likely, synths aren’t allowed to have fun.)
The Robotics division did something like this once. (I think this one is in reference to the place where they race and bet on robots)
One of the scientists in Advanced Systems tried to figure out how this boat could have ended up here. Eventually, he just gave up (in reference to the uss constitution)
The older sections of the Institute look a lot like this. (corvega)
I used to come here for target practice. (the amphitheater. i wonder how often coursers are allowed to go to the surface? do they mostly stay up there? or do they mostly stay in the institute?)
We send scavenger teams to places like this to collect chemicals.
Learning from books? Not exactly efficient
In the Institute, we’ve advanced far beyond books. Children learn from interactive terminals.
Time for a masterpost :D. Order from the first to last.

You know what? I am actually legitimately pissed off about the Shaun tags.
Ya’ll are like “He’s so cold and unfeeling! I’m your fucking father/mother! You should love me! You should adore me!”
Bitch, he lived for 60+ years never even fucking knowing you. You took a god damn nap, woke up 210 years later and spent a year collecting garbage and saying “Hm, I wish this game would have given me time with my kid so I could give a shit about him.”
Don’t sit there and play the fucking victim card you hypocritical jackasses. You had more time with him than he did with you. You were there when he was a baby in the crib, playing with him. Running to the vault and seeing how much your characters friggin loved him.
He. Never. Knew. You.
He. Doesn’t. Remember. You.
“He treats me like I’m some…experiment!”
He thinks it’s fascinating that you could unconditionally love someone you don’t know just because he’s your kid! You missed 60+ years of his life, found out he’s the head of this “evil organization” and you still love him just because he’s your son!
“It’s wrong that he thinks your husband was collateral damage!”
HE DIDN’T KNOW HIS DAD. HE WAS RAISED BY SCIENTISTS IN SAFETY UNDERGROUND NEVER KNOWING HIS PARENTS.
My great grandmother killed herself by drowning herself in the river when I was a kid. When I found out, I didn’t actually…feel sorry. I felt bad that she committed suicide, but I didn’t miss her. I didn’t feel love for her. I didn’t feel shit past “Oh wow that’s horrible that you assholes just let her do it”. Why? I DIDN’T KNOW HER.
Yet he tells you that he thawed you out, organized you to cross paths with Kellog and felt it was some sort of revenge on both of your parts that you killed him.
He set you free to see if you would go off and look for him. If your love was really strong enough to push you through hell and high water to find your missing son.
You were an experiment, but you were more than that. You were a reminder that he could have had a life filled with love instead of hard numbers and cold facts. Kellog was a reminder that the Institute took that away from him. Your survival was proof that you love him so much and it’s remarkable.
He thawed you out because he wanted to know.
If after all of these years,
after all of the rumors and harsh and horrible things you heard about the institute
if you’d still love him.
He’s a dying old man taking a break from his hard work he dedicated his life to to reflect on what he’d missed out on before he died.
He just wanted to meet his father/mother.
He just wants you to love him, even if he doesn’t know how to properly respond to it.
Your dedication to him is remarkable.
