 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, good morning and welcome to Skip Dictation Live. My name is Sherman and in case you're new to the channel, this is my live stream where you can hang out, watch me go through the recording process of the skip of the day or week. Or maybe you just want to hang out with me for an hour while I work. Let's see. Channel updates for this week. The YouTube channel is a YouTube channel. I did update my Patreon. Someone had mentioned Patreon as a thing, so hey, if you want to help me make more of these things, I'm pitching towards maybe getting an actual webcam so I don't have to YouTube off my cell phone, though just plugged into my computer so it doesn't die. Or maybe getting a microphone, it's not a stage microphone. These are all things. Hey, if you like the videos, maybe you want to help out, that is going to be linked in the description. The best thing you can do if you want to help me out is the old like, share, and subscribe business that YouTube is all about. Anything you want to do to help me, I will keep pumping these out because I just love these skips. This week we're going to be recording SCP-1177. This was requested by Azimov's Rule Breaker, frequent commenter on the channel. 1177 is known as the coupon cutter. This one's going to be a lot less complicated than last week's creepypasta version. 1177 is kind of a news of the weird skip. What you end up with is just a Latin American woman who can cut off pieces of herself and give them to you and you will think they are money. So it's a bit more news of the weird than scary or funny or anything like that. But what I like about it is this is going to be short and sweet. We're not going to have a whole bunch of crazy sound effects and stuff because this is just a report. It's not so much a format screw. If you guys have any questions or comments, I will get to those in between takes in the live chat. Otherwise, I'm going to get back down or I'm going to get down to business. So the microphone's all tested and set up. Let's take it from the top. Item number SCP-1177, Object Class, Safe, Special Containment Procedures, SCP-1177 is currently housed in the containment quarters of Site 40. A staffed closed-circuit camera monitors SCP-1177 at all times. If SCP-1177 attempts to practice self-harm, alert the head researcher as soon as possible. Per standard humanoid containment precautions. So you're going to see this about me. I'm very picky with my takes. I do not like letting a stutter or a small word sneak in. I hear that on a lot of videos and it's like nails on a chalkboard. I hear it on some of my old videos and it's like nails on a chalkboard. It's like I can't believe I let that slide. Clean it up, Sokka. Per standard humanoid containment precautions. Personnel are to be searched before entering SCP-1177's chamber. Personnel are subject to an additional search upon exiting the chamber. Description SCP-1177 is a Latin American female of indeterminate age who possesses the ability to exchange severed pieces of her own body for goods and services. Although she appears elderly, this may be a result of her long-term abuse of her Sometimes she just can't read fast enough. In fact I think I read that right. I'm just not sure that I got the meaning of the sentence along the way. So from although she appears elderly we'll call that good. Back it up, back it up, back it up, back it up. End of the line. Alright, keeping it going. So although she appears elderly, this may be a result of her long term abuse of her anomalous property and lifestyle. Good. Although she appears elderly, this may be a result of her long-term abuse of her, I realize halfway through that sentence that I was saying it wrong because I already have the first line, although she may be elderly. So this may be a result of her, that's what I need to start with. This may be a result of her long-term abuse of her anomalous property and lifestyle. Interviews reveal that prior to entering foundation custody, she'd spent much of her adult life as a homeless vagrant. SCP-1177 was discovered in the Boop Casino in Kansas, after she bribed the doorman into allowing her entry and made several attempts to play nickel slot machines without the use of casino tokens before being apprehended by security and delivered to paramedics. I didn't do anything wrong there. I just gotta, I only realized during my last read through of this while I was studying it that she's playing nickel slots without tokens. Oh, oh, God, that hurts in my soul. Ugh, that's the worst. I hate fingernail stuff like that. That's just so painful. All right, where was I? Here we go. Foundation agents alerted to these events posed as employees of a local mental health facility and were given custody of the woman without incident. The slot machine and the rug under it were submitted for cleaning. Possessions found on SCP-1177's person upon containment included one costume jewelry ring, two plastic earrings, one toothbrush, one comb, fine-toothed, three empty wrappers belonging to the boop fast food chain, two instant lottery tickets, scratched off with no redemption value, one pocket knife, one washcloth, blood stained, one movie ticket stub, one piece of ham kept in an additional fast food chain wrapper, and one 16 ounce bottle of rubbing alcohol with half the contents remaining. These objects were evaluated and discarded. I think I did something weird on one of that. Let me go back and read. No, no, I got that, I got that, I got that. Nope, I was good. Excellent. It's fantastic. Rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling. Moving on down. Physical examination following containment revealed signs of self-mutilation covering her body, including numerous scars, healing wounds, missing teeth, and patches of hair. SCP-1177's fifth toes and right fourth finger are missing. Her right middle finger has been crudely amputated after the lower joint, as has the upper joint of her right index finger. Tissue samples, tissue, tissue, tissue, tissue, tissue, tissue, tissue, tissue, tissue, tissue. Excellent. Something I gotta fix this. Backing up, backing up, backing up, backing up, because I screwed up my life stream, go to the live control room, so I can actually see comments if they come through, because now I can't. Oh, hey, Asimov, I didn't see you a minute ago. I had a, I did a three-second live stream a minute ago because I wrecked my, what's the word I'm looking for? I wrecked my live stream by not testing my microphone beforehand, so I ran a three-second live stream, had it all set up, canceled it immediately, and then started a second one on the phone, but I didn't change the live station so I couldn't see comments. So, good morning, Asimov, welcome to the live stream. Yep, we're doing your request. It's a very straightforward one. We're gonna knock it right out way faster, no extra special effects, super exciting. But now I need to see where I am. Here we go. Tissue samples used by SCP-1177. I can do better than that. Tissue samples used, tissue samples used is a lot of Ss. Wake up the lips, wake up the lips, it's early in the morning today. Tissue samples used by SCP-1177 are most commonly strips of flesh from the arm or the leg. Gosh darn it. Tissue samples used by SCP-1177 are most commonly strips from, are most commonly strips of flesh from the arm or leg. Nope, stop, stop everything. What are you doing, audacity? Stop, stop freaking out, there we go. We're back, everything's fine, nothing is wound. Tissue samples used by SCP-1177 are most commonly strips of flesh from the arm or leg. Irregularly cut off using a pocket knife or other implement. Removed and cleaned of blood using a washcloth before being presented. Those who are offered a section of SCP-1177's body recognize it as being detached human flesh but do not manifest revulsion or surprise. Instead, they accept the flesh as an alternate form of payment like a voucher or debit card. This varies in effectiveness based on several factors, including the subject's normal likeliness of accepting alternate forms of payment, the size of the payment accepted, and the amount and type of flesh given. Incident log, 07-40-111. Drat. So close on that weird string of numbers. But we're over halfway done, this is gonna be a shorty because we're down to the incident logs already. All right, so rocking back along. Let me close all these other ones because I don't need to actually press the button in between. Here we go. Wait, good, that's where that's at. Continuing on. Audacity. You're doing the thing. Good, we're here. Incident log, 07-40-1177. As demonstrated by an attempted containment breach on 07-24. Cried, I was doing so good. On dates, I don't say 07, I just say the number that was there. Part of the quality is keeping consistency in format. Saying numbers the same throughout the speech. You don't want changing formats, it makes for bad consistency. As demonstrated by an attempted containment breach on 07-24, boop. SCP-1177 is capable of using body parts as a form of bribery. During food delivery, the woman gave the attendant boop, which she had apparently nod off without detection in exchange for release from containment quarters. According to testimony, SCP-1177 quickly maneuvered to the frontal lobby of Site-40. The woman borrowed a pair of scissors from the receptionist before attempting to exit, failing and requesting that the front doors be unlocked. The desk attendant denied the request and called for a security officer. When security arrived, SCP-1177 was attempting to use scissors to sever the remainder of her left ring finger. Experiment log, 1177-1. On eight, six, boop. An experiment was conducted in which two strips of flesh, each measuring a square inch, were taken from SCP-1177's leg, sanitized and given to researchers. Dr. Reigns purchased a hamburger at the Site-40 cafeteria, but did not consume it, citing loss of appetite. Research assistant Clark took his sample to SCP. Ah, lost appetite. Now we got jokes in the creepypasta. Research assistant Clark took his sample of SCP-1177. Research assistant, nope, bad take. Get some drank. Research assistant Clark took his sample of SCP-1177 to a local convenience store and attempted to exchange it for a pack of cigarettes. When the shopkeeper asked for his ID, Clark displayed, I'm not a night owl and it's not 10 in the morning yet. I'm not awake until 11. What was the last thing I successfully said? Pack of cigarettes. Pack of cigarettes. When the shopkeeper asked for his ID, Clark displayed the piece, I didn't say it wrong, I just thought I said it wrong. When the shopkeeper asked for his ID, Clark displayed the piece of flesh and was met with revulsion, hoping to further, sometimes you get stuck in a hole of failed takes. Gotta dig my way out of the hole and get back on a roll. Hoping to avoid further argument, the research assistant left for a bookstore. Left, several long take there. The long left. Hoping to avoid further argument, the research assistant left for a bookstore, where he successfully bought a used book with the sample. Stress fact. Stress fact shows. Stress fact shows and you. I'm a stress factor, this computer. Gaston. Whew, pardon. Whew, better out than in. So I wanna be a voice actor. I work for hours on these things, but I have a secret. My accents are dead. That was supposed to be Shrek. It was not even Scottish. Stress fractures, keeping your job from getting to you on clearance for $3. Since then, further experimentation has yielded the following transactions. One piece of muscle tissue, 0.5 ounce by weight for three bags of brand chocolate candies priced at 50 cents each. Successful. One lock of hair for one comic book. Boop, volume one, issue three. Priced at $2.99. Transaction failed. The operator considered the payment insufficient. One lock of hair for one comic book. NFL Super Pro, volume one, issue one. Priced at three for $1. Transaction successful. Oh, pardon me, that was Dr. Pepper. Yep, we're friends now, right? That's what happens when you hang out with me. We're all gross together. Shoot. Transaction successful. One two ounce vial of blood for one bag of brand charcoal briquettes priced at $6.99. Transaction failed. The convenience store clerk considered the payment insufficient. Three two ounce vials of blood for one bag of brand charcoal briquettes priced at $6.99. Transaction successful. The researcher was given three dimes and one nickel, value 35 cents, in change. One piece of skin measuring nine square inches in area for one gold plated necklace. Successful. The transaction was made at a pawn shop. As of eight, 10, boop, the piece of skin is framed and on display in one of the shop's cabinets. Experiment log 1177-2 on eight, 12, boop. Researcher McAims. I'm gonna look out on, I'm gonna look up how to process researcher McAims because I think it's McAims, MacAims, McAims. Do-do-do. Well, I'm glad your boss is a fan of the project. Helps you get away with stuff. And by the way, I do not want anyone getting in trouble listening to the stream. The hours of these streams are gonna be very, very odd because sometimes I'll record in the daytime, sometimes I'll record in the nighttime. I'm gonna be all over the place. It's gonna be really random and hard to schedule. So tune in when you can. Don't get in trouble at work. Don't crash your car. It'll always post up after the fact on eight, 12, boop is where we're at now. We gotta find out researcher McAims, I believe. McAims, but gonna pronunciation guide that cause I can't pronounce words. Pronunciation, McAims. I'm certain it's McAims. It has to be McAims. No, I did not mean games or memes. So that's not a word they're gonna pronounce for me. So I'm just gonna go with McAims. Go for authenticity. And if you can't get authenticity, wing it. Researcher McAims stood on Fifth Street in downtown, boop, from 1321 to 1352. During this time, he approached numerous pedestrians and requested that they make change for him for the subway from one of 10 samples of SCP-1177 stamped 1177-45 through 1177-55. Each a 0.5 ounce chunk of skin and flesh taken from SCP-1177's abdomen. Each person who accepted the sample was tracked by a foundation task force until a transaction was made which used their piece of the sample. Dread, I was so close to finishing that sentence. Each person is where I'm gonna start from. And by the way, just for your foundation cannon paying attention to this, this is pointing out that the foundation has flayed this woman multiple times and drained her blood. So yeah, part of your squick is that she's like gnawing off pieces of herself and trading them. And yeah, it was funny that that guy lost his appetite but realize that the foundation is skinning this woman for experimentation purposes. Oh, man. And that's why we love them. Each person who accepted the sample was tracked by a foundation task force until a transaction was made which used their piece of tissue. The following results were recorded. 1177-45, placed in the tip jar of a coffee house. 1177-46, used at an electronic store to purchase the PC game. Boo! 1177-47, used to partially cover the bill at an Irish tavern. 1177-48, placed in an envelope and mailed. 1177-49, given to a homeless man. When this occurred, the man became very agitated and shouted unintelligibly at the subject until he was out of sight. 1177-51, deposited in a savings account at the local branch of Wachovia Bank. 1177-52, placed in a dancer's top at the Boo! Gentleman's Club. 1177-53, dragged five three, so close, almost made it through all of them. Oh, and by the way, on the word of redactions, can we get a, we redacted a comic book, redacted a brand of PC game, but we're totally not gonna redact Wachovia Bank. Cause we're redacting the name of the Gentleman's Club or we're redacting the name of the casino and the church, but we're not redacting Wachovia, which I guess could be funny, except they don't exist anymore, so we have dated this article now, but whatever, 1177-53, exchanged for, exchanged, exchanged 1177-53, exchanged for chips at Boo! Casino. 1177-54, possessor evaded tracking behind an abandoned storage building. When the foundation agent continued pursuit, he was met with gunfire. Agent disengaged, further investigation recommended. 1177-55, given in the offering plate at the Boo! Lutheran Church. Conclusion, samples of SCP-1177 are not single use, though their value may not remain consistent amongst transactions. The only method of estimating how much of SCP-1177 remains in circulation is through noting the amount of scar tissue and number of open wounds on SCP-1177. Of special note is that, at no point during any one, so close! Of special note is that, put it back on, put it back on. Of special note is that, at no point during any SCP-1177 experiment it subjects other than informed researchers display awareness of their composition. Experimentalog, 1177-3. Experiment 1177-3 is currently in process with a more long-term focus. The intention of measuring the age at which 1177 ampels, 1177 ampels, ampels, S's are just not necessary anymore. Don't need them. Can skip them completely. Oh, fudge. Where am I? With a more long-term focus. The intention of measuring the age at which 1177 samples become inert. As of 3-18, boo! Sample 1177-71, which was removed from SCP-1177 six months prior to this date, remains value in Lou's sentence. I just gotta get it. Retains value. Come on, come on. Retains value in Lou of legal tender or as a voucher for other transactions. Yes, we made it. All done. That is the last line of this. And just because we made a guess, I'm gonna really quickly come in here, line all these up. And let's, I might as well do the quick. So the editing process takes anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour depending on the complexity. I mean, I say 30 minutes to an hour, but sometimes it takes like 20 hours. If it's like a 399 situation, which we have a couple of those complicated ones on the docket of requests. So we will see how that goes. But this one should could be up later today. This is not the most crazy idea in the world, skip-wise. So we should be able to just run this sucker. Oh wait, don't do that yet. On audacity, always run your noise reduction first and then normalize. Otherwise you get really loud clicky noises. So we noise reduce. We follow that up by normalizing. Do, do, do, do, do, do. And then we follow that up with trunctuating the silence. These are the sounds of silence. Detect silence, maybe. SCP-1177, object class, safe. Okay, so if I trunctuate all the silence out of this, this SCP came out to nine minutes and 23 seconds. Approximately, give or take a little bit of an edge, but guess what, Asimov, you said there's gonna be about 10 minutes. So that is the end of our second live stream. Good work team, we have SCP-1177 in the can. So I'm going to run through this real quick, get a clean up, get a little sound music behind there. This is gonna be a simple one. So yeah, thank you for joining us again today. Hope you guys enjoy the finished product. Remember, the best thing you can do if you like these videos is the old like, share, subscribe. And like, share, subscribe this video, like, share, subscribe the finished video, the channel, everything, everything, including the new Patreon. Send it all out there. If it is me, it is T-H-E-E, shirm. And that is all kind of noise gate you were using. Volume levels are clearly the same, even though your sentences are sometimes chopped. Are you talking about during the live stream or during the recordings, for comments on the live streams? Tech-wise, I just got a very cheap, what's the word I'm looking for? Tech-wise, I have a pop guard, like a cheap ass pop guard from Guitar Center. I've got my sure beta microphone. I've got my microphone stand. I'm using Audacity to edit. So sometimes I punctuate the silence and that cuts things really quickly for me. Sometimes I have to go back and re-edit because I'll sometimes cut off words that were a little too quiet because they'll be mistaken for silence. But overall, it saves time. So it causes less problems than it makes. I actually don't know the definition of the word noise gate. So perhaps as a mom, you have taught me a new thing. What is noise gate? Because that's not a thing I've heard of. Software that's used to control the volume of an audio signal, comparable to a compressor, which attenuates signals above a threshold. Noise gates attenuate signals that register below the threshold. So, hmm, not sure I'm using one of those. Oh, actually, does this count? Is a focus right to I2? Is this sucker a noise gate maybe? I know it's what my microphone hooks into. So perhaps that is what you were talking about. I just know it as the thing that allows my professional microphone to hook into a USB because it does not work. The other way, playback. So there we go. Retour as a voucher for other transactions. All right, and we made it through a live. So yeah, via bridge dending. Thank you guys for being on board. Like the channel, share the channel, share the Patreon. And I'll see you guys in the next live stream. Send in requests and we will, I will start picking out the next skip. We'll probably start recording the next couple of days. Cheers. Finish. Okay.
