These imbeciles don't know if he was real or not.

Answer- he's a fake.

Gives these fools something to waste their time on,

unlike important people like me who spend their fukin time wisely.

Thanks for fukin asking.

You may be more right than you think. I am a person. Maybe. Personally,
I believe that more people have heard of "Bob" Dobbs than have heard of
me. Have more people "met" "Bob" than me? Have any of YOU actually MET
me, face-to-face? Have you? Or am I a clever "Nicolas Bourbaki"-type
amalgam of some clever writers, or an AI trying to pass the ultimate
Turing Test? Eh? Am I? Huh? What?

You've never met me. You've probably never met "Bob". One's a little
larger than life. I'm not quite up to that point.... YET.

Were you a real person? Ever?

Look everybody! "Bob" is posting from an aol account to test us. Didn't fool
me for an instant. That "Bob", what a kidder.

Yes, "Bob" was real, but the key word is 'was'. For he is now dead, nothing
but worm food. Except for some of the more choice cuts we kept for ourselves.

He was dead at the time Biggles wrote this, but he has Re-risen again!

No, wait, he's dead again.

If this keeps up, we may have to rename him Schroedinger's "Bob".

Is "Bob" REAL? Molly, "Bob" is, quite frankly, more real than YOU, ME, or
ANY OF US posting on this newsgroup. "Bob" is beyond being defined by
reality; "Bob" DEFINES reality constantly, without even knowing that he's
doing it! (I said he was real--I didn't say he was smart.) The multiverse
itself constantly reshapes itself to suit "Bob"'s needs, whatever they
may happen to be at the moment! If your existence suddenly becomes
detrimental to "Bob"'s continued happiness, YOU WILL BE EXTERMINATED
through some FREAK ACCIDENT. Think about that. Your connection to this
plane, as well as ALL OF OUR connections, are as tenuous as the life of a
brain cell in an alcoholic's grey matter; the only constant is "Bob". I'd
say that makes him PRETTY DAMN REAL.

I too thought "BOB" was nothing but a figment of current post (insert
your disaster here) Then one day I saw him driving a red '66 fairlane
convertable through downtown lubbock, TX. I took "BOB" into my heart
that day, and whatdaya know he popped right back out through my
sphincter (very near to my wallet).

Tarla lies. Bob Dobbs was neither Real, nor a real person ever, nor made up.

Most of you isn't you, either. It's stuff that you chose to glue onto
yourself, so it's kind of a little like you, but mostly you didn't have a
lot of choice since 99.9999% (the famed "six nines standard") of the
things you were offered (clothing styles, religions, jobs, careers, sexual
orientations, gender roles, political parties, speech patterns, perceptual
habits, favorite television shows, etc.) were Conspiracy Approved and
guaranteed not to exceed the EPA (Everybody Programming Authority)
standards for weirdness.

You could go up onto a mountain top, fast until your system was clean and
your mind vulnerable, eat of a certain herb which it is not lawful to name
to the uninitiate, and erase some of your attachment to Not-You stuff that
You glued onto you. But what's the point? You'd come down off of the
mountain, eat something, and go back to watching Conspiracy TV and just
glue more Normal Crap onto yourself. In short, you'd "lose your ego" only
to get stuck with another one, pretty much just like it.

So if you do, take a copy of the _Book of the SubGenius_ up there to read
before you come back down. It won't stop you from building up layers of
crufty tartar-like Normality on top of your worthwhile and valuable
psyche, your True Will, your Inner Self ... but it will help you maintain
some cynicism about it, and if you're VERY lucky, it might keep you from
mistaking your Personality or your Lifestyle for your Self.

_Liber Al_ works for some people. _Principia Discordia_ works for others.
Timothy Leary's translation of the _Tibetan Book of the Dead_ works for
yet others. Mother is the best bet, and don't let Satan draw you too
quickly.

The "Bob" That can be described is not the true "Bob".

"Bob" Dobbs never walked the earth, but for that matter, neither did
Jesus of Nazarath. "Bob", however, is a spirit being. Jesus is a spirit
being.

No, that can't be right. Both "Bob" and Jesus are your perception of the
spirit world. "Bob" is a 'face, an interface between you and the
spirit world. Thus, "Bob" can be anything trying to contact you. If that
being happens to eat your face, then we would call that entity the
Anti-"Bob". Perhaps that is why "Bob" is enclosed in quotes.

No, that can't be right either. Damn, just ignore this message.

"You may ask me any question you like, Dean" said Ivan Stang, pacing the
floor of the cell in the Ministry of Slack..

"Does "Bob" Dobbs exist?" asked Bob Dean, strapped to the torture table.

"Of course he does. The Church of the SubGenius exists. "Bob" Dobbs is the
High Epopt of the Church of the SubGenius. Therefore, "Bob" Dobbs exists."

"Does he exist in the same way I exist?"

"You do not exist".
