9-11 RANTS from IRC

Boy, for people who are all bloodthirsty to massacre "Pinks" on X-Day, we sure do get all upset when a little bit of a preview happens, don't we. I guess that's why we aren't proper terrorists but instead just gripe a lot.

Like, we hate the Military Industrial Complex too, but do we really want to fly around, maiming and killing its slaves? I think, when we finally get our escape vessels, we'll probably just LEAVE. And blow off the masscre-ing. Don't you think? I mean this mass killing stuff just isn't getting me off like one might expect.

In fact I'm hideously bummed if I stop and think about it from a human rather than SubGenius perspective.

Even from a cruel heartless vengeful SubGenius perspective its totally sickening

Now you kids, remember, this isn't the End of the World; or, if it is, it isn't like you all weren't BEGGING for it last July! Of course it is kind of worrisome that it's stupid Pinks duking it out rather than mighty space monsters.

I hate to see monkeys die needlessly and I hate to see even HUMANS die needlessly. Although if we get our way, ANY death will become STRICTLY VOLUNTARY -- *AND REFUNDABLE*!

It's taking for fucking ever for the End Times to end

When the world appears to be ending, SubGeniuses always get this urge to fuck as if their very lives depended on it... funny how that works, though certainly understandable from an evolutionary point of view.

I hesitate to say this, but... at this point I will be happy if this remains "DIE HARD" with an unhappy ending instead of THE 12 MONKEYS directors' cut.

the Patriotism gland is getting all fired up. I remember this distinctly from the Gulf War -- it's fucking incredible, it even infected me. (John Shirley also admitted to me he had the same problem) -- the Con will exploit this for its own benefit.

It's very easy even for an apolitical slacker to get all fired up and hot to wage war when a good solid (yet still symbolic) enemy is propped up in front of them.

I kind of agree with the old spies, maybe assassination and dirty tricks are the kinder, gentler way to wage war after all. More political assholes and less civilians get killed that way.

(As long as I stay online, reading SubGeniuses, I won't have to THINK about that TREMOR in the FORCE!!)

It could be that none of us could even GUESS what any of this was REALLY all about, any better than that Keaunu Reaves character in THE MATRIX. One thing is for sure, a whole shitload of plain ordinary folks of every race creed and color, got fucked over -- probably because somebody else thought they were doing GOOD. OH the humanity of it all, to kipe a phrase.

Remember, from the point of view of our, say, Palestinian counterparts, they are the Rebel Forces and we are the robotic soulless decadent Empire.

"Ya know... heh heh... to them Martians, heh, maybe WE'RE the monsters!"

Some people find hate just DELICIOUS, and they MILK it. It's their only way of feeling superior. I used to have fits where I'd get like that, that's how I know how delicious it is. Fucking gives me the creeps just thinking about it when I'm in my right mind, i.e., fropped to the gills.

If I leave SubGeniusland and look at the human world right now I'll start thinking about "IT" -- must stay up here in my tower, surrounded by protective Dobbsheads.

That's it, I'll just meditate on how many protective Dobbshead images there must be inside my hard drive and in all these disks and all those boxes of old art and layouts.

Hassling the Vampiric Americans, Demonic Americans... Aetheric Americans will be about the only ones to escape the troubles, 'cause they're already dead. Little consolation.

Only "Bob" will be safe.

Nobody cares about the Subs... they think of us like they do about homeless people and rodeo clowns. Harmless. Rats in the walls.

I don't think we're on anybody's Anti-American lists... I mean, some SubGenii might be, but I don't think me or The SubGenius Foundation are under any scrutiny ANY MORE. Although... the FBI did phone the sheriff of Sherman NY about the suicide cult gathering at Brushwood in July 1998.

DOBBS PREDICTED: "It's Gonna Be a Bummer, Man" -- PROPHECY FULFILLED!
The news pictures of downtown Cleveland at 5 PM looked like THE OMEGA MAN scenes -- empty, spoooky.

I have found myself referring to sci fi "end of the world" movies about 25 times today.

Recalling bygone treacheries of a distant past, like Pearl Harbor, and trying to make comparisons with this situation -- whatever it really is -- is just another way of dumbing down an issue that isn't really understood yet at all.
The monkeys geta ll upset and they start signifying like crazy -- their vain way of fighting back against an enemy they can't even see -- plus their own fear. Scares the fuck out of ME.

It isn't remotely like Pearl Harbor; nothing like this ever happened before and they're just slow to admit it. Hell I'm trying to avoid even thinking about it in any serious way, by staying here with you crazy people.
But at least I can admit I don't understand it yet.

For all we know, Lee Harvey Oswald masterminded those attacks, or Hitler's brain from a jar, or rich drug lords, or the Mob, or a Secret Society of Rational Scientific Humanitarians. Nobody knows SHIT yet, and even when the mass media "explains" it all to you, you probably STILL won't know shit

For all we know, the passengers were teleported to Venus and evil Venusian criminals were put in their places for execution.
