Just subscribe to every junk mail, political mailing, and evangelical snail mail listing you can. When they send you letter after letter asking for money, eat the junk mail. (Idea basically stolen from Sluggy Freelance.)
Sentience probably requires an elevated metabolism: the human brain uses over 20% of the calories one consumes, and who knows how much energy it takes to run sentience 2.0 on something the size of a pin head?
This is Washington, D.C. Aren’t there actual paper-shredding COMPANIES here? People who are PAID to do nothing but get rid of classified and/or incriminating paper? The silverfish could set up a company like that and get paid to eat.
You get them all over the place, I think, The issue which could cause them problems is that a company like that has to be able to account for what happened to the documents it was given. For instance, you can’t just dig a big hole in the ground and stick them in it. Promising that pests will eat it may also attract criticism.
I don’t think the silverfish could do it by themselves as they aren’t legally people there.
Even The Don has standards
Like most of Tip’s insensitive behavior, he probably didn’t even notice he was being God.
It is not so easy to tell when someone is thinking you are God. This is especially true if they decide that after the interaction.
It has happened unbeknownst to me on a number of occasions.
just what are in those files anyways?
Probably the information the Department of Irradiation was requesting at the time

No Chris! Stay good!
Well since skin horse disbanded, they probably don’t need those files anyway.
Probably still waiting for someone to scan them onto the computer. Or they already have and are obligated to retain the paper versions.
If Chris the Father sends a plague of silverfish to destroy the files, can’t Skin Horse claim they were destroyed by “an Act of God”?
Nice
Do irradiated silverfish eat more paper than their less radiated brethren? I don’t know why I’m pondering this at the moment, but I am.

Valid point to ponder indeed.

Heck, you get those everywhere. Out in CA, they team up with the e-waste recyclers and do school fundraisers.
…probably other states do that, too, but I dunno which.
What does “stronzino” mean? Google isn’t helping.
Hint: ‘ino’ is the dimunitive. Try looking for ‘stronzo’.
Thanks.
Nasty.

Yeah, they’d have to move to California. Or incorporate themselves.
Okay, the Chekov’s gun has been cocked, and will fire in 5 . . . 4 . . . 3 . . .
Thought it was a phaser… hope the USN never found it…
And it just went off.
And I thought Kentucky long rifles took a long time to go off…
This is gonna end in a religious war, isn’t it?
