How Long?  — 1984 Remix

You see, I have this stupid theory about the "Max Headroom" broadcast television incursions that occurred in Chicago in 1987. And since it’s me, I can’t stop thinking about it, and pursuing it.

Ep. 1 - Whodunnit? (3:48)

Yep, I'm still working my way through what I find interesting in terms of clues in the WTTW hack.

Ep. 4 - Interesting, Part 2 (2:31)

In this installment, I wrap up my slow-motion look at the WTTW incursion. We're in a stretch where there's less science and more observation.

Ep. 5 - Interesting, Part 3 (4:02)

mfw my love is fading or smth idk

Who was behind this hijacking? Nobody knows!
The original uploader of the video on YouTube (from what I know, at least) is Kenny Triton.

The Riddler:
What do you get when you cross the top mind in Gotham
With a basement goblin who can’t face a problem
A broken dope fighting the woke for Coke
Who’s such a token Joker, that even it would shock him

Tried spreading a message but he couldn't confront it
Because no one seemed to care about his Dr. Whodunit 
And for with scheming through screens we’re one in the same,
But the button to change his channel is how they’re Catching my Waves

While I was running the streets of Gotham
He was running a stream that people weren't even watching
And I'm leaving marks without any question
He stooped in the news 'cuz he knew they'd forget him

But what I wonder’s on why it’s so odd to see
Him wear the face of anti-corp hiding with hypocrisy
So Riddle me this! If you're seeking to help
What's the point of the mask when you’re deceiving yourself

Max Headroom Highjacker:
Oh jesus…
You're a freaking nerd that's my conclusion
Just leave (groans) 
You've ranted on longer than my entire intrusion

I’m a Rap God and that verse was dog shit
But I guess it makes sense when you’re all Logic
Shined the spotlight on yourself cause you were one they weren’t watching
When you tried to topple the tops of Gotham, but botched it

You look down on the people cause you see them as dimwits
If you think you have a great mind, then you’re falling to your sickness
Should see a hospital if you're wanting answers
Zodiac ain’t the first time you’ve crossed paths with cancer

Achieved mass reception then had no repercussions
While your intellect only had you riddled with punches
Had feelings for your partner but it ended in a mess
Because your love is fading and I still see your X

The Riddler:
May have escaped the FBI’s attempts to follow you
But through the eyes of a mask you’ll find it's a hollow view
So go on and answer! I know you’re rather quick witted
Why would they care when you barely even did shit?

Though, congrats! You got away with it, i guess, so well played 
But sorry teach, you did that for dry video essays 
To find the freak on the screen not in the right headspace 
Who thought his cheeks were a scene good enough to collect fame

Now seen as a mockery so your glove is left dirty
Just a troll left alone talking more Bull than Swirsky
So when the World Greatest News comes and forget you just see it
Be considered just another time you’ve been left beaten

Max Headroom Highjacker:
(Hush!) You still got Questions to solve there rookie
Kidnapped Catwoman and still got no pussy
And claim my masterpiece was sad to see while you turn tots to tragedies
You need a Shining Knight in armour just to go back to sleep

Stopped breaking cases when he got a mace to the face 
And tried to become a Private Eye, but it was made into waste
Now whenever you’re outsmarted you're stuck in denial
Screaming “HOW’D YOU SOLVE MY GOOGLEABLE TRIAL”

So how about a change of pace and you answer my question
Who’s the man challenging his mind with more than depression
Creating new iterations to make his relevance stronger
That beats his story more to death than what he did his daughter

Lyrics:

The Intruder:

DON’T WATCH: if you’re not prone from sickness
This Chucks talking bull like Swirsky did! with
another door to the forehead, it's another thing I left rocked
[I'll let myself in] *knock knock knock*
We have no connection, but when its comes to that you’re shitty
It's sick he's not known from the trollpasta Wiki
Wanna see a real mugshot? I would perhaps not
Slim and Shady ass person thinks he’s a rap god

Max Headroom Hijacker:

(*GROANS*) what a FRICKIN nerd!
Oh Jesus I'm getting sick from hearing those words!
Catch the wave, don't try to drown in your own flow!
Cutting you to the “max” because well…. You know…
I’ll riddle you with holes, Edward has a better Enygma (*snorts*)
While you’re left to be forgotten, what do you have, dementia?
Bite me! You’re not a damn thing worth to mention
The government can't find me! Seems I went more to ascension…


The Intruder:

Like ascended to Gabe? Seems kinda shoddy
I only see you fly like [NOW ALERTING “SWAT” TEAM]
Profiteering off big brother? I think I'm hallucinating 
The FBI would be waiting, before you could save face then
Taking off your private eye while I X you out
Individuals or groups have not been apprehended since now!
My series is still appealing, I can’t say the same about you 
Whenever you're brought up, people are like “Doctor Who?”


Max Headroom Hijacker:
Waves should’ve been catched on Stanley, the silly breed 
Took Microsoft Sam here, making people think “He’s coming to get me!”
Luring in victims with other analog tropes? 
Leaving a few more hits when I'm offing a mark! (OH)
Takes more than some doppelgangers to leave me dead, see?
Now you failed into the hands of fricking Jeffrey Epstein 
Leaving this news hater burned…
Since I just made a giant masterpiece for all the greatest newspaper nerds!
