An antimeme is an idea with self-censoring properties; an idea which, by its intrinsic nature, discourages or prevents people from spreading it. Antimemes are real. Think of any piece of information which you wouldn't share with anybody, like passwords, taboos and dirty secrets. Or any piece of information which would be difficult to share even if you tried: complex equations, very boring passages of text, large blocks of random numbers, and dreams ... But anomalous antimemes are another matter entirely. How do you contain something you can't record or remember? How do you fight a war against an enemy with effortless, perfect camouflage, when you can never even know that you're at war? Welcome to the Antimemetics Division. No, this is not your first day.… (plus d'informations)

Sets up a really unsettling and unique problem, but doesn't have an equally creative way to resolve it. Definitely worth reading for some of the ideas (antimemetics itself, the inverse containment system, etc). ( )

Mind-bending and very exciting. I liked the idea of antimemes, the X-files (etc) references, the plot that jumped back and forth, and how my own reality seemed to flicker in strange ways as I dove deeper into the book.
The author did recycle quite a few themes as the book went along, and I would probably see quite a few plot holes if I were to look closer. Still, it was an engrossing read.
(Oh, dear, will I remember what the book was about tomorrow? ;))) ) ( )

Don't read anything about it, don't secnd-quess it, and do not hesitate.

Just read it and thank me later. ( )

You should know this is both sci-fi and horror... starts more in the first genre and quickly moves to the second. Somehow this wasn't clear to me when I started reading but by the time I realized it, I couldn't put it down....

Nothing more to say since I don't want to spoil it :) ( )

This was one of the scariest, most interesting books I've read in a long time. I knew nothing about it going in, except that I saw a comment on Reddit or somewhere about how unusual this book was. (It also happened to fit nicely with the last square I needed to mark off for the Reddit bingo card, "No IFs Ands or Buts..."). This really a collection of short stories that tie together and build on one another to tell a larger story. It was originally published online, as part of the SCP Foundation's website (which I will definitely be looking at in more detail now). The concepts here are really scary. What is an antimeme? Would you even know if you had encountered one, since the information is almost impossible to keep in your brain? Have we done this before? Etc etc etc. Very fascinating stuff. Highly recommended.

SCP-055's physical appearance is unknown. It is not indescribable, or invisible; individuals are perfectly capable of entering SCP-055's container and observing it, taking mental or written notes, making sketches, taking photographs, and even making audio/video recordings. An extensive log of such observations is on file. However, information about SCP-055's physical appearance "leaks" out f a human mind soon after such an observation. Individuals tasked with describing SCP-055 afterwards find their minds wandering and lose interest in the task; individuals tasked with sketching a copy of a photograph of SCP-055 are unable to remember what the photograph looks like, as are researchers overseeing these tests. Security personnel who have observed SCP-055 via closed-circuit television cameras emerge after a full shift exhausted and effectively amnesiac about the evens of the previous hour.
