Belphe-Tech

"*Belphe-Tech; the ethos of Sloth. We pioneer only the most innovative of technological advances, from our beloved Karen, smart home appliances, teleportation systems, and adaptive artificial intelligence. We even dedicate our time to giving those filthy mutts- (sighs, droning) or Hellhounds...- (mockingly) 'Grrr, I'm a Hellhound!' - a new home. In 1560 A.D, our glorious CEO and King Sin of Sloth, Belphegor, founded this organization with one thing in mind; to create the impossible, and make everything more convenient for all of you lazy sacks of shit. While cavemen were discovering the wheel, we were crafting self-driving cars. While humans struggled to build flying machines, we were mass-producing our patented hovercrafts. (plays old, Earth stock footage of a multi-wing plane failing upon takeoff) N'awwww, look at them try! We project that in the near future, Belphe-Tech technology will dominate worlds even beyond Hell. So, we ask, kick back, relax, buy our shit, and embrace the future.
Belphe-Tech; Creating the future so you don't have to.*"
