Next morning, stupid Jesus ho knocks on the door and hands out flyers for that afternoon's "Walking Towards The Lord" extravaganza. It talks about a "parade for Jesus" and all this other crap and in unison we all agree... "We're there!" No surprise, my friends are punk as fuck, and one of them happens to be the manager of a local art supply store. With a plethora of tools at our disposal, we set forth on our mission of chaos. We arrive and things are just starting to swing. There are literally thousands of people on either side of the road, all of them total honky ass, white suburbanite Jesus lamers. Needless to say, we stood out like Don King at a KKK rally and it didn't take long for people to start staring. We were all already laughing our asses off with sheer ecstasy over our creations. Some head church bitch, complete with gay nametag comes up and asks if we're from the neighborhood. When my friend answers "Yes", she says, "I don't believe I know you," and he responds with, "You will." A few moments later, she's about 2 blocks away. Parade starts. Everybody is now gayer than ever and starts cheering for the Lord or whatever. First few minutes are completely lame, not even a tad bit humorous. I was surprised because this is an annual event that typically rakes in a couple of "well knowns". This year, the flyer mentioned Houston Oilers and Astros players as well as a flurry of other local wanky rejects, but for the first 10 minutes or so, we were quite unenthused. After a few cars full of old people passed, we could see a marching band approaching in the distance. As it got closer, we could read the banner leading the way : FIRST BAPTIST FAMILY BAND - STAYING AND PLAYING TOGETHER IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST. It seemed to be comprised of kids aged 12 to 17 and their parents. Way stupid. Some of the parents weren't even playing an instrument, they were waving or blowing bubbles or trying to validate their worthless existence by doing shit like holding the triangle while their socially retarded kid banged on it. Truly pathetic. We figured now was the time to display our artistic masterpieces. Up came the signs. As the marching band drew nearer to where we were (on top of a term box, putting us a foot or two above the crowd), they were greeted with the usual array of cheers and waves, but this time, they got something extra: SATAN IS LORD! JESUS WAS A HOMO! NOAH'S ARK = BEASTIALITY BOAT! NOAH FUCKED MONKEYS! cDc: WE'VE COME FOR YOUR CHILDREN LORD SATAN ROCKS MY ASS! KILL WHITEY GOD IS GAY! I think that was all of them. We had made about 4 signs, all on neon yellow and green poster board, and painted on both sides. So, there we are, in the middle of all these fuckheads, laughing hysterically while waving our signs and shouting out whatever wonderful merriment came to mind. All this whilst our friend Shawn hurled out delightful German sayings via his father's megaphone. Most of the people were in complete and utter shock. Some people, especially the teenage boys in the marching band, thought we were fucking hilarious and couldn't control their laughter. A group of fashion senseless skaters came running up proclaiming how "awesome" and "fucking kick ass" we were and started jumping up and down trying to blend in as part of our now "rad" group. Most of the people around us quickly moved elsewhere. We lasted a lot longer than I expected. I originally figured it wouldn't take long for some of the macho parade watchers to fuck with us, but I believe most everybody there was honestly scared to death of us and took it all way too seriously. The whole megaphone thing probably helped seal that. I guess the police finally showed up 10 minutes after we started our revelation. I thought for sure we were either going to get the shit kicked out of us or get arrested, but as the officers approached us (both male, one hispanic and the other black) my friend looks at them and goes "Yeah! Yeah! Right on, brother!" and proceeds to jump up and down with the "KILL WHITEY" sign proudly displayed. They both almost died laughing and after a trip to the side of the building and a brief talking to, we were told to "go far away" for a few hours. It's worth mentioning that the crowd cheered when the police walked us away from the parade because the police left before we did and we had to walk through the parade watchers in order to get to the car, signs and slogans held high with shouts of victory and German death calls to boot. Yeah, it pretty much rocked, to say the least. It has become quite difficult to remember the last time I laughed so hard that I had severe chest pains for almost a week. In a last ditch effort to annoy society, we decided to make our exit by driving through the parade route, signs out the windows and megaphone on 11. The lame part was we got absolutely NO press coverage out of this. The douchebag cameraman from our local ABC station thought we ruled but wouldn't film us. The local station that taped and then aired the parade did a wonderful job of keeping us out of the final product. If I could have paid someone to film us, I would have because I probably could have sold a billion copies of the footage. It was a decent way to kill a few hours on a Saturday afternoon at least. .-. _ _ .-. / \ .-. ((___)) .-. / \ /.ooM \ / \ .-.
