Western Carolinian March 23, 1995 S c t i o Editorial Abstract Thoughts and Human Waste By-Products by Williams and Other Maniacs Williams: So, what do you think we oughta give these people ? Taylor: I don't know, I misplaced my Thesaurus and I can't think of any big words to impress 'em with. Williams: Yeah, I know. It's hard to be an intellectual when you have people such as Pious Henry who can do it so ... so damned well! Taylor: It makes me wonder why I even attempt to write these stupid things. I mean, after all, it's just recycled paper in the end. Williams: Are you trying to be politically erect or something, man? Taylor: No, not really. I mean, let's see .... Damn, I'm drawing a big blank. You want me to continue? Williams: Yeah, if you want to. Taylor: I guess what I'm wondering is if anyone reads this stuff and, if they do, then do they understand it ? Williams: Yeah, I wonder that, too. I wonder how many so-called "literate" people say that they read this column but, instead, all they do is count how many times we say the word "Fuck." So far we've used it three times. Taylor: Three's a good number, (impersonating Jon Spencer): Damn! I was stuck in Sylva during the break, and not a damn thing happened. I'm totally out of touch with current events. How the hell am I suppose to write something that's meaningful and worthwhile? Williams: Well... Blake Frizzell drowned at Bear Lake Saturday night. Taylor: Really? Williams: Yeah; but it was just a nasty rumor. She's alive and well. Taylor: Well, that's good. But, think about it: it makes sense that a rumor like that gets started because that's what the public wants: carnage, damage, death, and destruction. "Rescue 911" and "True Stories Of The Highway Patrol" are both hit TV shows... (pauses)... Hey, I said "Carnage" — that's kind of a big word. Do you think Pious Henry will be impressed ? Williams: Who cares ? Beats the hell out of the "Peace, Love, and Light" garbage that I get from all of these Rehab addicts. Jesus, they're worse than Jehovah's Witnesses and they'll call you up on a Saturday morning when you're lying in bed with the wife. Taylor: Yeah, I hate that. After all, I'm a busy man and I have my own concept of God, and it doesn't need to be enhanced by some right-winged religious fanatic. Most people don't believe that God is a drug addict. Why else would the world seem to be teetering on a nervous breakdown? Williams: No kidding. This planet needs 12-Step Therapy and it needs it fast. Maybe God needs to move to Asheville. Taylor: Yeah, that's where "Old Age meets New Age." Wiliams: And God is definitely an old dude.... I wonder if the paper will put quotation marks on all of the obscenities. T aylor: Nah, surely not. After all, this is a fairly liberal paper, right ? Williams: Yeah, but most liberals today have no backbone whatsoever. They only follow what's hip and happening. Taylor: Well, Addiction is definitely happening. I'm just curious as to how the preppy uptight Doc Marten- wearing conservatives will react to this article. I know you've seen 'em, Williams, the kind of stupid morons who look like they took the Pepsi Challenge way too seriously. Williams: Yeah, I have, man. They're scary, too. Big stupid grins on their faces wanting a damn hug all the time. They act like Teddy Ruxpin dolls who have taken too much speed and can't shut the hell up. Taylor: Well, I think I know what would help them. Williams: What's that? Taylor: Prozac. That can alter anybody's personality. If they'd go down to the friendly local Mental Health clinic and ask for it then maybe they would lighten up. Williams: Yeah, it's not the Pepsi Generation anymore. It's the Prozac Generation. Everybody's in therapy, working out their own little individual traumas. I say to them: "Life sucks, get a helmet." Wouldn't it be something if they found out twenty years from now that one of the nice little side effects of Prozac is that it causes you to go nuts and makes you lose your hair? Taylor: Is that why you're losing yours? Williams: Well, I thought I'd be wise and follow the Axl Rose method and combine it with Heroin. Hey, what the hell did I know? Taylor: One day Axl has a full head of hair and is beating up supermodels, the next day he's grooving on Monoxydil and going out with check-out girls. Talk about falling from grace! Williams: Yeah. Definitely hasn't improved his singing, either. So what do you think about most forms of Therapy in general? Taylor: Well, I think they're a crock, especially when they start talking about an "Inner Child" locked deep inside of us. What's bizarre, but no less ironic, is that I use to work as a Therapist, helping people find their "Inner Child." I must have taken Prozac and forgotten about it. Williams: Well, did you eventually find your Inner Child? Taylor: Yeah, I found him in Rio selling drugs to retarded school children. Williams: And what did he say? Taylor: Stop being a Therapist while there's still time and pick a major where you have no future. Williams: Like Taylor: Like Communications. Williams: Well, the "fuck" count is now up to 12. Taylor: Hey, I like it. It's a nice even number. Do you think we'll get censored? Williams: Are you kidding? The Carolinian's a liberal paper. Taylor and Williams decide to get Metaphysical and Meditate on The Thin White Line of Stupidity
