Jeremy spoke in the Registry Quad today.

Well, that was Jeremy, eh? Three words: So. Utterly. Boring.

So, if you're a religious group who's going to be all culty and meme yourself up a crowd of people, at least have a speaker who can orate, rather than just sucking. I've seen better preachers on street corners - and not even the special kind that are as crazy as a sackful of cats. Making the gospel sound as stimulating as a stocktaking catalogue isn't a particularly good strategy for encouraging people to listen.

After all the marketing hype, I feel let down. It's like ordering a filet mignon, and getting a tough, boiled steak with canned mushroom sauce on top. Even a challenging taste is better than utterly bland. Perhaps all those people wearing the T-shirts just said they agreed with Jeremy to get him to stop talking. I know I was glad I had a meeting to go to.

Bit of an anticlimax, huh? How did the cultists go?

The guy who got up and spoke after Jeremy was much better.

Were his arms raised in a V?

Hmm, smells like ... boring ...

gasmask + robes = 2-minute awesomeness

nothing ever lives up to hype.

[drcuriosity]

True. I was hoping for atrocious in an interesting fashion at least, though.

[morte-o-merce.livejournal.com]

yes, that would have been ice, but, ultimately, most people are jsut boring.
