but dont you find Anarcho-messiahs to be fun?
"i'm snippy and i wont obey the rules...there should be no rules...i am wiser and slicker than you because i know there should be no rules and you dont.
now bow before me, peons.
you may kiss my ring.
well, you could kiss my ring but i'm leaving.
no really.
leaving now.
the next sound you hear will be the door closing on my departure.
there it is.
that was the door closing.
i'm outside now.
this is me outside.
ok?
wait, one more thing....
i dont like hierarchy, ok?
in my quest to undermine hierarchies where i find them, i will now neither leave nor not leave.
this inside/outside business is oppression, man.
so the next sound you hear may or may not be that of me leaving.
what does leaving mean?
leaving could mean standing outside on the lawn, near the sprinkler, saying that i am leaving.
you dont know.
you dont control what things mean.
you dont control me.
i am a fully realized being, and as a fully realized being, i can at once leave and not leave.
so this sarah bernhardt farewell is actually me freeing mankind from its bondage.
i'm just going to continue standing here telling you about my heroic resistance.
you need to know, little people, about my heroic resistance.
this is me resisting heroically.
the key to my heroic resistance is saying "fuck you" to Hierarchy.
so.
fuck you Hierarchy.
did you hear that other sound?
that was capitalism trembling.
now it's time for a parable.
when jesus told parables, they were cryptic.
that is what made them good parables.
here is my new cryptic parable.
ok so i'm leaving now.
really.
the next sound you hear....."
since this kind of departure can continue for a while, i will now resume awaiting new transmissions from the Higher Plane of Being.
