[SUBG_02.TXT] SubGenius Sources Second of an occasional series BRAG OF THE SUBGENIUS (a cassette transcription) [The following is a fragment from "a tape recording made at a seance in 1973" in the classic SubGenius style. No attribution is given, but this rant bears all the hallmarks of Rev. Ivan Stang's preaching modus. SubGenius Sources is a series of files for those lost souls expressing a casual or obsessive interest in Sub-G culture. Close cover when striking.] I pick the god damn terror of the fucking gods out of my nose! Pardon my language. But YEEEEEEHAW, let the sons of God and man bear witness! Even in the belly of the Thunderbird I've been casting out the False Prophets; I'm busting a gut and blowing my O-ring, and ripe to throw a loaf! For I speak _only_ the fucking _Truth_, and never in my days have I spoke other than! For my every utterance is a lie, including this very one you hear! I say 'Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke!' By God, 'Anything for a laugh,' I say. I am the last remaining Homo Correctus, I am the god damn Man of the Future! I'll drive a mile so as not to walk a foot; I am a human being of the _first_ god damn water! Yes, I'm the javalina humping junkie that jumped the men from Mars! I drank the Devil under seven tables, I'm too _intense_ to die, I am insured for acts o' God _and_ Satan! I was shanghaied by bodiless fiends and alien infidels from a corporate galaxy, and got away with their hubcaps! I _cannot_ be tracked on radar! I wear nothing uniform, I wear _no_ god damn uniform! Yes, baby, I'm 23 feet tall and have 13 rows o' teats; I was suckled by a Triceratops, I gave the Anti-Virgin a high-protein tonsil wash! I'm a bacteriological weapon, I'm _armed_ and _loaded_! I'm a fission reactor, I _fart_ plutonium, power plants are fueled by the sweat from my brow; when they plug me in the lights go out in Hong Kong, I cook and _eat_ my dead; YAH-HOOOOO, I'm the Unshaven Thorn Tree of the Atlantis Zoo! I pay no taxes! The Devil's hands are my _ideal_ playground, I hold the Seven-Bladed Windbreaker; the wheels that turn are behind me; I think _backwards_! I do it for _fun_! My imagination is a _fucking_ cancer and I'll pork it before it porks me! They say a godzillion is the highest number there is. Well, by God! I count to a godzillion and _one_! Yes, I'm the purple flower of Hell County, give me wide berth, when I drop my drawers, Mother Nature swoons! I use a python for a prophylactic; I'm _thicker_, _harder_, and _meaner_ than the Alaskan Pipeline, and I carry more spew! I'll freeze _your_ seed before it hits the bathroom tile! YEE! YEE! I kidnapped the future and ransomed it for the past, I made _Time_ wait up for me to bleed my lizard! My infernal breath wilts the Tree of Life, I left my _spoor_ on the Rock of Ages, who'll tear flesh with me, who'll spill their juice? Who'll gouge with me, whose candle will I fart out? Whoop! I'm ready! So step aside, all you buttlipped, neurotic, insecure bespectacled slabs o' wimp meat! I'm a Crime Fighting Master Criminal, I am Not Insane! I'm a screamer and a laugher, I make a spectacle of myself, I am a _sight_! My physical type _cannot_ be classified by science, my 'familiar' is a pterodactyl, I feed it dipshits! I communicate without _wires_ or _strings_! I am a Thuggee, I am feared by the Tongs, I have the Evil Eye, I carry the Mojo Bag; I swam the _Bermuda Triangle_ and didn't get wet! I circumcise dinosaurs with my teeth and make 'em leave a tip; I change tires with my _tongue_ and my _tool_! Every night I hock up a lunger and extinguish the _Sun_! I'm the big-footed Devil of Level 14, who'll come _shoe_ me? Where's the robot giant who'll try to blow me down? I've packed the brownies of the gods, I leak the Plague from my nether parts, opiates are the _mass_ of my religion, _I take drugs_! Yes, I'm a rip-snorter, I cram coca leaves right into my arm-veins before they're picked off the tree! _Space_ monsters cringe at my tread! I wipe the Pyramids off my shoes before I enter _my_ house. I'm fuel-injected, I'll live forever and remember it afterwards! I'm _immune_! I'm _radioactive_! Come _on_ and give me cancer, I'll spit up the tumor and butter my _bread_ with the juice! _I'm supernatural_, I bend _crowbars_ with my meat axe and a thought! My droppings bore through the Earth and erupt _volcanoes_ in _China_! Yes, I can drink more wine and stay soberer than all the heathen _Hindoos_ in Asia! YEEE HAW! _Gut Blowout_! I am a _Moray Eel_, I am a _Komodo Dragon_, I am a _Killer Whale bereft of its pup_! I have a triple backbone, I was sired by the Wolf Man, give me _all_ your Slack! I told _Jesus_ I wouldn't go to Church and he _shook my hand_! I have my _own_ personal Saviors, I change 'em every hour, I don't give a fuck if there's life after death, I want to know if there's even any fucking Slack after death! I am a god damn _visionary_, I see the future and the past in comic books and wine bottles; I eat _black holes_ for breakfast! I bend my genes and whittle at my DNA with the sheer force of my mighty _will_! I steer my _own_ god damn evolution! I ran 'em out of Heaven and sold it to Hell for a _profit_! I'm enlightened, I achieved "Nirvana" and took it _home_ with me. _Yip, Yip, YEEEEE_! I'm so ugly the Speed of Light can't slow me down and Gravity won't tug at my cuffs! When the Rapture comes, I'll make 'em wait! They'll _never_ clean _my_ cage! Now give me some more of...[tape runs out]. [Pnin July 1992]
