- [Constantine Shits Out Another File]
-
- Ever seen a psychotic walking down the street of your neighborhood,
- muttering to himself about the saucer people controlling the New York Stock
- Exchange? Sure you have. And like thousands of others, you've probably
- asked yourself, "Without the use of heavy (and expensive) pharmacuticals,
- how can <I> achieve that state of cosmic awareness?" Now you can.
- Creative paranoia is YOUR path to a brand new worldview. A world-
- view unhampered by such trifles as rationality, logic or common sense. No,
- it's NOT the same thing as Christian Fundementalism. It's much more fun.
- First, test your PP (Paranoia Potential) with this quick quiz:
-
- #1: Who REALLY controls the country?
- A. George Bush
- B. Jesus
- C. the CIA
- D. the NFL
-
- #2: What happened in Ohio in 1978?
- A. Nothing much
- B. Even less
- C. Ohio-type stuff
- D. Aliens from the Sirius system landed and replaced every single
- citizen with tall leafy vegetables. Of course, nobody noticed.
-
- #3: What do you have in your ear?
- A. Eardrum
- B. Earwax
- C. Ear canal
- D. A miniature microphone, planted by CIA agents, that bounces
- your innermost thoughts up to a Canadian satellite.
-
- #4: What prominant government figure is actually an Illuminati agent?
- A. Illuminiwhat?
- B. Illuminiwho?
- C. I dunno
- D. All of them
-
- #5: Jerry Lewis is actually...
- A. Satan
- B. Satan
- C. Satan
- D. Satan
-
- SCORING: Give yourself one point for each "D" answer. If you scored above
- one point, you definitely have Paranoia Potential. Keep reading.
-
- Now that you have discovered your true potential in this fast-growing
- field, all you need to do is master the three elements of creative paranoia--
- the Look, the Walk and the Talk.
- The Look takes a bit of practice, but is remarkably easy to develop.
- Keeping your head down, jerk your eyes from side to side. Even in
- conversation, never look at the same spot for more than two seconds. Keep
- your eyes REAL WIDE and try not to blink unless you absolutely have to.
- When you do make eye contact with someone, don't stop staring at them until
- they look away.
- The Walk goes with the Look-- head down, shoulders hunched, shuffle
- aimlessly. Keep that head moving. Develop a very large twitch if possible,
- affecting an entire arm or leg. Shudder involuntarily. Do this in front
- of a mirror for a few hours, and you'll be up to Paranoia Par in no time!
- Of course, make sure it's your OWN mirror. Doing this in, say, a shopping
- mall, will only lead to embarrassment as all the real paranoiacs laugh at
- you and make derisive "wanna-be" comments behind your back.
- Finally, the most important part, the Talk. This is the running
- patter that seperates the men from the schitzophrenics. Practice repeating
- this over and over again:
- "Well, you know about the saucer men taking over the Transamerica
- building but I know that that's only because the Rockefellers have 108%
- controlling interest in the Campbell Soup Company-- they bought it up because
- of the Andy Warhol subliminal messages on the labels and did you know he's
- not really dead? And I've got this damn microphone in my ear, they're
- probably after me now, the men in black I mean, because of my knowing about
- Elvis shooting JFK and what-all with the nuclear bomb that was on the
- Titanic, damn Girl Scouts..."
- The pros can do this for hours at a time without repeating
- themselves. It will take time, but after dilligent practice, you too
- will be able to act the part. Now for the final test-- get into your
- grungiest old clothes (for 90210 fans reading this, this may mean getting
- your Gucci shit just the slightest bit dirty), and hit the streets.
- If you see mothers holding their children close, large men crossing
- the street to avoid you, and Scientologists rushing up to ask for advice,
- then congradulations! You're paranoid! You are now well on your way to
- a long, rewarding career as a disturbed vagrant. That's okay, you don't
- have to thank me, I know you're one of THEM anyway...
