the blog manifesto.

the purpose of sme is simply this: to overthrow the capitalist hegemony that has a stranglehold on our beautiful, multiethnic society. contributors are asked to take part in this, our overriding mission, so the people of the green earth can breathe together in the clean air of progressive politics and non-judgmentalism. each blog post must bask in the sunlight of earnest expression, never falling into the trap of satire or parody. our aim is clarity and verisimilitude; our mission is truth and the propagation of it. the blog is the perfect place to post your old family videos, homophobic video blogs, another blog's material, awkward, poorly-drawn sketches, halo reach updates, or unexplained/irrelevant wikipedia articles--sme is home to the entire eclectic conflation that is the internet. if there is one thing entirely intolerable to the editors of sme, it is sarcasm. there is simply no room in this blog for sarcastic, humorous, and reference driven posts. if you are among those responsible for such garbage, please leave.

sincerely,

The Ten Tribes of Jezebel, Chapter 1

Lo! Upon the first of men there was born one who is righteous in the sight of the spirit


(the beautiful babe still at his mother's bosom)
of the mountain. Great was the wickedness of his generation, and their trespasses trespassed many stated statutes of known knowledge. The abomination that brings desolation is the sure reward for the breaking of the mountain covenant. But the men of his generation laughed at known knowledge, reveling in their own great sullied perversion!

Yet he could be looked upon with a shining brow and resplendent chin. He could be seen with the eyes of men. His tight curls were a pleasure to the spirit. His burnt rodent offerings were a pleasant aroma to the lord of the harvest. His idiot babbling sweet music to the ears of his brethren, 









(vile plotters of wickedness)
though doubtless they coveted him his precious anointing and plotted to lay snares for his tender infant feet to become ensnared upon. His great bulging baby thighs were covered like the forests of Lebanon with strong hair like the rock of Egypt. His neck was like the valley of Eden, with jumping goats dancing upon his Adam’s apple. His neck was like the tower of Jericho, covered in deep set stones. His neck was also like a charging river, with waves of goats covered in deep set stones.
The boy danced in the lilies of the field. The boy gathered the milk of the honey bee and the sugars of the bejeweled dancing tidal mountain goat. Most assuredly I say unto you there remained not a horse in Babylon nor a cedar in Lebanon whose number the dancing stiff legged baby did not count among the plenty. Most assuredly I say unto you, his legs were indeed stiff as the stiffness of a billy goat's rendered completely immobile by the multitude of jewels fastened to its hindquarters.
The suckling’s completely straight legs beat the rising song of the harvest. Entirely stiff, his limbs pounded a melody of supplication. Behold! A rigid-limbed song for his generation!

But lo! Among the children of men many did lie in wait in brooding jealousy. Their eyes were covered with scales. Their eyes were also covered in flaxwood. Their eyes were additionally covered in burned pine gum and alabaster fletching. Functionally blind, these men hated the unrelenting unbending of the furry infant’s musical body. Yay! They drew a design for his stiff-bodied end.

The Score is Hot


Tonight is the night, boys.

The score is hot... and I'm thirsty for wet sewage.

That trash bitch Tommy Torelli two-timed us for the last time, ya see?

His head is on my plate tonight and I'm ready to serve it up with a side of that filthy murder juice.

That sweaty bastard has been slapping our dicks around in the sludge for too long. It's time we showed him how to take a hot gutter beating like a goddamn man.

No doubt about it, that scumbag is drowning  in his own stink lotion tonight.

Gonna put it to him straight, ya see?

No one slings that ripe dirt candy on our turf but us!

He's getting it real nasty.

That's right, Tommy T's got a big dose of back alley tar poison coming straight for his piss cannon.

Don't believe me? Ask Vinny C! That garbage-eating sunofabitch got what was coming to him... A one-way ticket to the slop shop!

Wanna know how we're gonna do it? You wanna know how we're gonna pull a primo scrap job on this street rat?

You guessed it... we're calling in the Trash Man.


This crazy bastard will do anything. "The Sewer King", they call him. He lives for the trash. Can’t get enough of it. Heard he swallowed an entire family of dumpster people back in 'nam.

Tonight the Trash Man teaches Tommy T a lesson in manly garbage love.

That dirtbag is getting buried in the slime tunnel tonight and there's not a damn thing he can do about it.

The Hottest New Business Practices



Do you want to AMP UP your team and achieve the BEST results?


Do you want to BLOW the competition AWAY?


Do you want the POWER to fuse a group of submissive human subjects into a gelatinous being with the mental capabilities to make your WILDEST DREAMS come true?


All you have to do is follow these easy guidelines and you’ll soon be the ruler of your own supple, obedient business entity that might as well be called S-U-C-C-E-S-S!


Adoption
A hot trend in business right now is to ADOPT, not hire. Think of your business as your family, and your employees as your literal children. To form the most yielding human subjects, you must adopt the most spongy, moldable children and teach them the hard and painful ways of business.


Body Fusion
Soon you will be ready to perform your first body fusion. This may be uncomfortable for a few minutes, but when your employees’ eyes roll back into their skulls and their bodies and minds amalgamate into a single conscious entity, you’ll be on your way to staying in the black and never looking back!


The Hive Mind
Now it is time to harness the power of your obedient, viscous mass of humanity by embracing the Hive Mind. Using its superior cognitive force, your bulging mind conglomerate will generate the HOTTEST business tips ever!


$$$

You’ve made it! The Hive Mind is working for you and it’s clear sailing from here on out. Enjoy raking in that hard-earned cash!

Becoming more with your life now, for less!

While in New Mexico, I watched the fantastic BBQ Pitmasters program and became fixated on the idea that the the life of a professional BBQ judge was the life for me. It took me a year, but I finally acted on my dreams and contacted a BBQ official under the assumed identity of Frank Bitwheeler, Attorney at Law:

Main Character analysis - Chapter six from Fight Club


Chapter six from Charles Michael Palahniuk's Fight Club was originally published as a short story, and sometime after publishing the story Palahniuk decided to write a book around it.  The short story is about one man's struggle with his homosexual desires; it captures the tension of a gay man trapped in a straight society, and the process of liberation.
