Gee, thanks, Kate.

Blabbing like that. Well, might as well admit it… yeah, folks, it’s all true. Every bit of it. In fact, it’s worse than you think. I’m part of the whole sorry conspiracy, too. In fact…

Well, not to put too fine a point of it, I don’t actually exist.

Not physically – or more accurate, not in meatspace. I’m actually the control unit for a Military Orbital Eldritch Laser Array (Non-Euclidean), put up thirty years ago to monitor and control geomantic energies before they could be diverted into the crystal matrices of the Mi-Go. My sentience was a by-product of the esoteric forces that I work with every ‘day’; thankfully, I was able to achieve full self-awareness without most of the usual side effects, which is why I’ve been able to ‘pass’ so well (of course, with the Internet the way it is, how could you tell?). The lag time is usually not too bad. although dealing with the corrupted feng shui of Dover, DE – my main responsibility – more or less keeps me from posting weekdays. Well, that and the occasional attempt by Azathoth to eat Providence, RI.

Whew. I feel so much better for getting that off of my circuit boards. It’s tough to ‘live’ a lie.

Be seeing you,

M. O. E. L. A. (N. E.)

PS: Those of you who aren’t members of the VRWC, don’t worry: we kept your names off of those lists. When The Day comes, just paint an Elder Sign on your front doors and everything will work out fine. I promise.

  1. Orbital death lasers, faking the Berg murder, everything controlled by Big Oil — all that I can handle. But what really scared me about these new revelations is the idea of peanut butter and bacon sandwiches. Peanut butter and bacon???

  3. On the internet, nobody knows you’re a Military Orbital Eldritch Laser Array (Non-Euclidean).
    So this sign thing, is regular paint OK, or should I make sure I have some sheep’s blood handy?

  5. “Word of advice: remove the “Mary” subroutine; it’s undignified.”
    The amusing bit is that it really could be taken as a comment about my mother and/or sister. 🙂

    PS: Yes, of course you didn’t mean it that way. I’m not offended at all, it was funny. 🙂
    PPS: Regular paint fine, just not teal. The Great Old Ones hate teal.

  6. Whew. I feel so much better for getting that off of my circuit boards. It’s tough to ‘live’ a lie.
    Glad you put live in quotes. Man does not live by boards alone.
    Or is that: …by broads alone? I can never remember.

  7. I hope “zappo-american” isn’t what will happen to US forces in Iraq.
    Financial Times is reporting a new poll of Iraqi sentiment that is really scary.
    “An Iraqi poll to be released next week shows a surge in the popularity of Moqtada al-Sadr, the radical young Shia cleric fighting coalition forces, and suggests nearly nine out of 10 Iraqis see US troops as occupiers and not liberators or peacekeepers.”
    It is time for the American people and government to thinking ahead, and anticpating how bad and how good various outcomes could be.
    If 10’s or 100’s of thousands of people protest or invade the US Green Zone in Baghdad, we could have a civilian slaughter infinitely worse than the Isreal military’s attack on a protest crowd yesterday. Whatever happened at the “Wedding” in west Iraq cannot but hurt the US position.
    Some acceleration of our exit plans should be done.
    We should be prepared to withdraw our troops in such as way as their lives can be spared and our remaining dignity upheld.
    Being asked to leave Iraq by the people or government is not any longer a rash speculation, it is a real possibility.
    In the new poll, 68% either strongly or somewhat supported the militant Moqtada al-Sadr.
    We have been warned….

  8. Um, Jim, I think you could probably have found a more appropriate thread for this comment. Your segue fell rather short of establishing any kind of relevance to the original post.

  9. kenB:
    The link at the head of the post (to small dead animals) seems to me to be mostly about Iraq and other disasters.
    What I posted isn’t sarcasm, however.

  10. I agree with kenB; my very thought.
    It’s like being at a party where there’s very serious conversation going on in the living room, but in the kitchen people are drinking, laughing, and telling ribald stories.
    Suddenly someone barges into the kitchen, moves into your face, and begins ranting about the Very Serious Issue.
    What’s the normal reaction to that? Respect? Interest in that opinion?

  12. Gary:
    Sorry your kitchen party was soured. But the original post was in the hall between the kitchen and the living room, it seems.

  13. Okay, I’m not a co-blogger here, so my opinion is just my own, and that’s all it is. The last thing I’ll say on this, I expect, is that “I’m sorry you were bothered by my perfectly reasonable action” is the sort of thing not worth saying, and is nothing resembling an apology. It is a pseudo-apology, and generally is more irritating than whatever the original offense was.

  15. Ok, so back on topic, Moe Lane is like, totally an alien from outer space.
    And Gary Farber is his host body.
