Once, when Roger was a young boy, his father took him to an open day at Nellis AFB, out in the California desert. Sunlight glared brilliantly from the polished silverplate flanks of the meat tanks, sitting in their concrete-lined dispersal bays behind barriers and blinking meat thermometers. The brightly coloured streamers flying from their turrets lent them a strange, almost festive appearance. But they were sleeping nightmares: once awakened, nobody -- except the crew -- could come within a mile of the meat-powered tanks and live.

Looking at the gleaming, bulging pods bolted to their hulls, Roger had a premature inkling of the meat that waited within, a frigid terror that echoed the siren wail of the air raid warnings. He'd sucked nervously on his ice cream and gripped his father's hand tightly while the band ripped through a cheerful Sousa march, and only forgot his fear when a flock of Thunderchiefs sliced by overhead and rattled the car windows for miles around.

He has the same feeling now, as an adult reading this intelligence assessment, that he had as a child, watching the meat tanks sleeping in their concrete beds.

If that tank is in Tianamen Square or a war zone then I think I know where the meat came from. :cry:

what the gently caress does any of this mean?

after some googling the first one is actually just doing a weak self-reference. according to the Heathcliff Wiki page on Garbage Ape, he seems to be an established reoccurring character who messes with garbage cans to the delight of cats while a bird describe what is happening. the wiki has multiple theories as to why and how, all of which seem to be far more developed than the actual "canon".

the second one is more straightforward. it has the comedic premise of "what if classical musicians spawned fashion fads the same way contemporary musicians do". it's not a bad idea, it's just not strong enough to be a punchline by itself so it ends up confusing

When I was young, my friends and I would always look forward to those rare days when that vehicle of flesh and war came to town. Though it is certainly true to say that it changed my life forever, I can also say with absolute certainty that those days are no less precious to those that had the privilege of being it It's presence. Of that particular day when my brush with divinity occurred, I can remember nothing else before the approach of the Meat Tank. Its heavy bulk would shake the very foundations of every building. First a slight tremble, which would turn into a thunderous shudder when it drew near. And there was of course the smell. A scent both foul and alluring, of bacon breakfasts and charred overcooked steak filled the air, demanding the attention of all. No one knew why exactly the word MEAT was painted on its side, but then again no soul was ever brave enough to ask those kind of questions.

Great crowds would of course gather in the streets to view that beauteous angular form roll forward. It was hard for me at that time to get a good view, being of small stature and lacking the strength to push ahead. I was in the middle of jumping up and down to get short glimpses of the tank when the crowd let out a gasp. The Meat Tank had slowed to a stop. The crowd grew worried and fearful, for what could possibly stop the tracks of this green leviathan? My friends and neighbors around me all clasped their hands over their ears as a cacophonous grinding screech emitted from the machine. The turret was slowly turning and when it eventually drew to a stop, no less than 4 adults and 2 children fainted, including elderly Mrs. Lee who had been standing right before me. The feline at the top of tank of meat beckoned me forward with a single claw. Everyone had heard rumors of those who were sometimes Chosen by the Meat Tank but such a thing had never occurred in this city, let alone this neighborhood. The notion of fleeing had briefly crossed my mind at this point, but it was now too late as my friends and classmates let out cries and cheers as they pushed me forward towards the looming barrel of the gun turret. Children loved the meat tank, and would satisfy all its requests. I was now standing there before the full glory of the Meat Tank. The feline then pointed down towards the barrel, ordering me to draw even closer. My clothes and hair would forever carry the aroma of that machine of meat. As I drew my face close to the dark and blackened interior of the barrel, the sounds of the street faded away. Even closer now, I could hear a bestial cry. Now with my nose almost touching metal, that cry grew into a wail containing the pain of millions of livestock mixed with the sloshy moan of ecstasy which could only come from one ripping their teeth into the juiciest piece of seared animal flesh. And before I knew it, the turret had swallowed my entire head as I greedily rushed towards the feast of meat and gears.

That's basically the opposite of what's happening here. People Who Still Buy Newspapers are old people who want familiarity more than anything else, which means you've pretty much got a baked in audience that can only be lost by doing something so controversial newspapers feel like you're actively damaging. Whether anyone reading the newspaper actually likes the brand of humor you're going for is completely extraneous. Whether ANYONE AT ALL actually likes the brand of humor you're going for is completely extraneous, even.
