(Confidential to what's-her-face at the Red Lion:)

1) Either you get it, or you don't.

2)I'm not doing this for you, I'm doing it for me.

3)No one's pointing a gun to your head forcing you to play along.

Thank you, next please.

Don't you hate it when you don't think of the comeback until later?

You need to practice, Tacoma-boy. And I reckon you were in the bar at
the Red Lion too, otherwise why would you be in the Red Lion at all?
Me and a friend actually used to ride in the elevators in the Red Lion
at Seatac with a little smokeless pipe and smoke until we were
twitching giggling idiots, and the nice travelling business people in
suits would get on the elevator and look at us very nervously. But
you probably weren't doing that, so I guess you were in the bar, and
you had your chance to do a great Subgenius rant, and you flubbed it.

Practice.

Practice taking risks. Practice talking completely crazy and keeping
a straight face. Practice REALLY GENUINELY NOT CARING if they think
you're crazy. Practice ranting with a rythm, with a tempo, bouncing
the lines one after another so you never break the rap. Practice
saying something TOTALLY ABSURD and being COMPLETELY CONVINCING.

And most important, make sincere eye contact through the whole thing.
That's the key to being convincing.

I've gotten to where I -look forward- to getting an excuse to tell
people I'm a Subgenius and having them ask "uhh ... what's that?"

No, I don't get -them- to believe that JR Bob Dobbs is a cosmic super
salesman who has come from beyond to get us back the slack that THEY
took away. But I do get them to completely believe that -I- believe
it.

And that is fun.
