The Messiah!

Alright, fot those of you curiouse to come in here, this is what the thread is about... In one of the game threads, the 'catholic school girl' stereotype was brought up... this first led to disgust on my part, having gone to a private school for many years, i know how false that stereotype is... continuing... this then lead to the discusion of uniforms outside of the board, eventually leading to a small discussion about the O&M strip in which millie claims to be 'The Messiah'. Well, I lost it at that, because all I could think of at that point was this one lunch period that began like anyother. Actually it started a few periods earlier, when i was walking to a class with one of my lunch buddies. While walking to class, who should we run into but a man with long hair in a self-made garmment that resembled that of what we picture Jesus in! Well, we talk to him for a minute(causing us to be late for class, but the teacher understood!), and invited him to lunch. So lunch comes around, and he didn't seem to have any food, so we went to the cafeteria people and got a free lunch for 'jesus'. so we ate, and discused many many differant topics, ranging from religion(obviousely), to politics, to how much we hated the uniforms... and at some point sun-block. One of my friends has a crazy-person report every once in a while... I guess this qualifies. He did not call himself jesus, but he seemed to be nameless. Has anyone else ever incountered something like this? if not, then what type of crazy people have you met (or seen) before? This is just being tossed out here to see if it will float... so don't get bent outta shape if it offends you on some level. It's not meant to. Well, enjoy this thread!

Oh yeah. I think he called himself "What's-Your-Name" in order to avoid...um. I'm sure he was trying to avoid something by doing that. Anyway, yeah, he was hardcore odd, but, to quote a famous cartoon character in reference to the same subject: "I envy your conviction." -Nny, JTHM Word.  <table border='0' align='center' width='95%' ><tr><td class='quotetop'>Quote: (FoxChild @ Oct 29 2003, 02:18 AM)</td></tr><tr><td class='quotebody'> One of my friends has a crazy-person report every once in a while... </td></tr></table>  That's me, actually...I'd post a link to my blog, which contains said reports, but it carries a parental advisory and has been banned in several conservative countries, so I can't. UMBC does have some severe crazies though. The first report involves a fellow who wandered the student union second floor dining area asking people whether they believed in angels, with a slightly disturbing gleam in his eye. He then sat down and proceeded to cackle uproariously at what I'm pretty sure was the directors cut of JTHM. It didn't help that he looked like Tingle from Majora's Mask. Needless to say, I got my cheesesteak and skedaddled.

In high school there was a realy cool (not popular, cool) kid who was two years older then I was. Several people referd to him as Jesus mainly because he had long hair (he was heavaly involved in Middle Ages stuff). I referded to him as god. It was a joke but I think he apreciated it. He was such a good person.

I work in retail, consequentially, I met some very bizarre people throughout my 'career.' One particular child comes into mind. A boy, who couldn't have been more than five, comes up to me and asks in a precociously eloquent tone, "Do you have any Frankie?" (I sell electronics and music) I thought this was some type of rap artist, as what ninety percent of the people who come to my store ask for, so I say, "He would be in the F's in this section." He replies, "Sinatra would be here?" I looked at him stunned a moment, then led him over to the impossible tiny section that contains all of twenty music CD's from every genra not rock, rap, or country. I handed him a CD, and he ran off, clutching the CD to his chest, exclaiming, "Frankie is the best, gotta listen to Frankie." I bought a sinatra CD that night, and while I may not share his enthusiasm, I do share his sentiment. And one other time, there was this girl who looked identical to American McGees Alice, who walked up to me and said in the calmest tone, "Smiley Faces..." Then walked off. While I didn't think either of them were the messiah... I definitely got weird-people vibes from them.

Definitely. But, I met Millie today! There was an eight year old girl in my store today (We have a costume contest the day before Holloween) . She wore a peach-colored leotard, dressed as a nudist. She held a protest sign exclaiming, "Nudists Are People Too." I saw her, and was in utter shock. So I met Timulty and Millie... Let me try for Llewellyn and Ozy, and I'll be all set. I would say Avery... but I meet his sort all the gosh-darn time.

This is all strange to me, at my school any preching or refrencing to religion (mainly christianity) would have people thinking less of you. It's kind of confusing though, I'd say handling that stuff amongst ourselves is a new situation. That could be classified as discrimination but we don't exactly dislike christians, as I said it's all a new situation even though we think about it when it causes an akward social moment.

I was Jesus for a week. I was at a summer program where I stayed at the University of Delaware campus for a week back in July. One night we were in the commons playing a game of team ping-pong where people had switch every hit and say their name when they ran up to hit the ball. I, during a turn, stumbled and blaspheemed and said "oh, Jesus Christ!" One of the girls said "Your name's Jesus Christ? I've been looking for you!" And I was Jesus for a week <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /> I also know 2 "Jesus" people at my school with long hair and the full Jesus look. One has red hair and we call him "communist Jesus."

Religion, good when it's alone but horrible in public.
