The other day I was writing one, and before the test today I said, "I need to pass this test... but how? I KNOW! I GOTTA BELIEVE!" The girl beside me smiled a bit. Then I chuckled too, and all of a sudden my face became very blank... another second and it was fierce... the girl sitting next to me got a look of fear on her face and I muttered, "I WISH I was playing some FUCKING Parappa instead of taking this fucking test and having to sit next to you!".... she cried. I smiled. Wow... am I turning into Wayne? d""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""b. ;P DO TWO WRONGS ACTUALLY MAKE A RIGHT? SHOCKING STUDY SAYS "NO" .b `q by BMC p' `nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn' We have heard the evidence for both sides and we have collectively drawn our conclusion; two wrongs don't make a right. We have all agreed on this in recent years, but what are we basing it off of? I mean, we usually will bother to incorporate some sort of evidence or scientific research into our decisions, but I don't think anyone really ever tested this one out. So I went to university, became a Bachelor of Science, and now I am going to experiment to find out if two wrongs actually do not make a right. Experiment one: Wrong plus Wrong I was hungry this morning and noticed that there were only two eggs left. As I picked one up, it stuck to the carton a bit and tippped it over. The egg that wwas still in the carton rolled out along the marble surface of the kitchen counter and then proceeded to fall off the edge and collide with the floor. It broke. A single tear rolled down my cheek, and then I remembered the grant the government had given me to conduct my scientific experiments. "Do two wrongs make a right?" I asked myself as I watched the other egg hit the floor as my hand lay guiltily open. I had dropped the second egg, expecting the problems to be solved through this act. Well there I was with no eggs to eat so I had to kill and eat some kids that were playing in my driveway. They tasted better than eggs anyway, actually, but the point of this story is that I determined that two wrongs did not make a right in that particular circumstance. Experiment two: Wrong minus Wrong Since the experiment was over and all tha data had been collected, we decided that we wanted another year's worth of funding so we made up a second experiment to do. I was going out to do some more field work. It was in the hills of Cambodia and I was meeting a sage named Cthulu Jones. He took me into his medicine igloo and made me smoke from several pipes that had funny and unique smokes that came from them. They were delicious, and in the sudden delerium I murdered the sage with a trident that I had concealed on my person. I looked into the eyes of my old friend and realized that he was dying. This was a wrong if a wrong there ever was. All he could say was "why?" It was pretty crappy, dude. Anyway, I decided that the best thing to do would be to minus the wrong. Since I figured the wrong was stabbing him, the only way to make it right would be to pull the trident back out! But I forgot that the prongs were heavily barbed. Sorry, Cthulu Jones. Experiment three: Wrong times Wrong I had just recieved the third yearly public funding cheque, so I decided to go to a bar and buy a round of drinks for the house. On the way to go ring the bell at the bar, I bumped into one of the guys that I had just bought a drink for. He spilled the drink I bought on me, and this made him mad. He was a pretty big guy, and I fell backwards when he hit me. I figured that this was a wrong, so I went out to my car and grabbed a pool ball. When the guy came out of the bar I hit him about twenty times more than he hit me and I was hitting him about twice as hard cause I had just taken a hit of PCP. I beat the him till he was almost dead, and even though it was fun it did not get rid of the black eye he gave me earlier in the night. Wrong times wrong had been a failure as well. Experiment four: Wrong divided by Wrong After the government cut off my funding I had to start robbing people. One time I took a wallet from an old lady in an alley in the projects. The cops caught up with me and busted me. This was wrong. I decided to attempt to divide the wrong by offering the officer half of the money within the wallet, but when he realized that there was an hundred dollars in it he beat me up, broke my fingers, and took all of the money, just leaving me there with an empty wallet. So all that dividing the wallet did was get my ass kicked. Experiment five: TBA I am currently living on the streets and have no labratory in which to conduct my experiments. I will continue research when the government gives me another grant, which should be within the next few years. UPDATE: On January 24th, 2003, BMC conducted his final test. He was found under a steam vent with ten million dollars in his hand. The money was earned through a combination of plagarism and selling out. He died because he became a capitalist. Let this serve as a lesson to all that equality is the only way! Peace, komrades! d""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""b. ;P CULTURAL DECONSTRUCTION FOR BEGINNERS .b `q by Margarina Cataclysma p' `nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn' First, be skeptical. Then, immerse yourself. Lose your phonebook. Lie. Misdirect people. Adopt a foriegn culture to replace the one you're deconstructing. Adopt an alternative persona. Love ravers. Love rockers. Love your mama. Eat apples. Borrow. Keep a clock set to a differend time zone, pretend you're there. Brag. Pursue an illogical goal. Pursue an illegal goal. Advise someone to pursue you. Wear your sunglasses till someone tells you that you look like Liz Taylor, then give them away. Pedal madly wherever you go. Make as much noise as the traffic around you. Remember that you were there first. Burn something. Pardon something. Adopt an attitude of no tolerance. Pretend to know the whereabouts of the North Star. .d&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&b. ___________________________________________________ |THE COMINTERN IS AVAILIABLE ON THE FOLLOWING BBS'S | |~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| | BRING ON THE NIGHT (306) 373-4218 | | CLUB PARADISE (306) 978-2542 | | THE GATEWAY THROUGH TIME (306) 373-9778 | |___________________________________________________| | Website at: http://members.home.com/comintern | | Email BMC at: thebmc@home.com | |___________________________________________________| .d&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&b.
