I think less detail makes it more effective, it lets the reader project themselves into the situation.

Well spoken. :mittens:
A good illustration of the wisdom we acquire form different life in different levels of society / experience, and the worth of each.  You could look at each of your three folks and easily stereotype them based on that, but it NEVER dictates if they are good or bad people, and all have things worth learning.

Um... Worcester?


If it's not at Coney Island, I'm not coming.

I'm actually inclined to believe that parts of Worcester are more gross than Coney Island.

Coney Island Hot Dogs.  Local flavor. 
I'm more partial to Hot Dog Annies' but that's just taste.

The place has it's gross parts thou.
Directings and formal invites will be distribute once a day can be agreed upon.  Sounds like we're pushing back to Oct. / Nov. for when D-cup is around.  It'd be a kick if I threw this around my birthday too.

Better with another person there to verify how the end of my apartment went down : )

Even if you're not the adventuresome type, Mr. Suu's pork shoulder is still not a thing to be missed.

Not bad.  Could use some polishing, but a good effort, nonetheless.

Feedback appreciated.  I wanted it out of my brain so I can work on other stuff.  Similar ideas will likely recur, but some things can only be polished so far before you realize they are only silver plated.

Or Kill Me / Fable of the Stages
August 29, 2007, 03:24:02 PM
Inspired (aka: not totally ripped off) by Cram's Gong show,  other old writings. 


Once their was a youth by the name of Youngblat, who after reading a certain tome by Malcalypse the Younger, decided to undertake the way of the Erisians.  Eager to learn much about his newfound faith, spouting ,Äú23 and Fnord!,Äù, he searched out others of the way, his attention first being drawn to a regrettable book of yellow pages.  Under the entry for ,ÄúDiscordian,Äù he found the locale of a certain Llama known as Buthashi.

Youngblat went forth to Master Buthashi,Äôs retreat in the ground floor of a local house, and sat with the Master in a sparsely furnished living room hung with many odd things.

Youngblat pronounced a good many nonsensical things, to demonstrate his freedom from the restraints of sanity, but did settle down and state his business when Buthashi brandished the fire extinguisher.

,ÄúGood Master, how might the Fnord I travel better in the Discordian way?,Äù he asked.

,ÄúYou will pass through many stages,Äù said Buthashi, ,ÄúAt first you will go about as you are, and eventually the next step of the way will become apparent.  Or it won,Äôt.  In either case, that will be your way.,Äù

,ÄúIs this the way you have gone yourself?,Äù asked Youngblat.

,ÄúFucked if I know,Äù, spoke the master. ,ÄúDepending where this way takes you, we may come to speak of it.,Äù

,ÄúSurely then, there must be four more such stages to the Way!,Äù

,ÄúThe first two are the biggest.,Äù Buthashi advised, letting out a formidable clap of wind.  ,ÄúAppreciate this holy stink, and go forth.  Greet me when we next meet, and we will see how far you have come. That will be $40 please.,Äù

Youngblat cautiously, but appreciatively breathed of the Master,Äôs assuredly divine stench, paid up and left.

Soon after, he sought out the Cardinal Shithashi, who was holding office hours in a crab apple tree by a local spa.  He greeted her calmly, remembering his near misfortune with Buthashi.

,ÄúHowdy fucker.  What do you want?,Äù Asked Shithashi, as she heaved a small item off towards some folks exiting the spa.

,ÄúI seek further knowledge of the Discordian way.,Äù 

,ÄúRelax, but do not be complacent.  Questions everything, but be firm in yourself.  Do everything for a reason, and nothing out of habit.,Äù  Sayeth Shithasi.

,ÄúWow, that,Äôs good!  Fnord!,Äù said Youngblat.

,ÄúIt was a horoscope this morning.  Also, calm the hell down. That will be $40 please,Äù 

,ÄúFnord right!,Äù said Youngblat, who paid the eye rolling Shithasi and left.

As he left, many patrons of the spa were wondering aloud who would throw apples covered in cards declaring them as Pope.  Youngblat laughed aloud, and receiving many scathing looks, left.

A week latter, traipsing through the city, and generally being a nuisance, Younblat spied the Masters and several fellows entering a local house of contemplation and drink.

,Äú23 and Fnord!,Äù he hailed them ,ÄúDo you see all the lovely chaos I bring to this horribly ordered city!,Äù

So saying, he put forth a thunderous fart.  Such was his vehemence that he did shat himself a little. 

,ÄúDamn.,Äù said Shithashi, augustly summing up any sane person,Äôs reaction to the scene.

This house of contemplation and drink, being a fine and quiet locale, had bouncers who promptly put him out, keeping well clear of his newly ripe trouser and into the path of some good policefolk who took him in for suspicion of apple throwing.

Youngblat hence did learn of the Discordian ways by which one may not be an incarcerated jackass, and went forth from that day wiser and less loud.

Shithashi, Buthashi, and their fellows all went forth and enjoyed a great night of drink and argument fueled by their collected sums of $40.
