Talking ‘Bout My Degeneration
Some people just like to fuss. Andrew Sullivan made a video about why he doesn’t like “baby boomers”. This is a lot of people, and includes the 1954 product PG.
In 1945, man’s best effort at killing other humans came to a nuclear end. The soldiers came home, and made love, not war. There was a predictable reaction. In 1965, it was time for another war. There were too many draft age men, and we needed to thin out the population a bit.
The baby boomers had a non traditional reaction to this call to go murder Asian peasants. This generation said HELL NO WE WON’T GO. Well, some did anyway, but it was enough for Uncle Slaughter to change his plans. If the baby boomers had not told Uncle Slaughter to go to hell, we might still be in Vietnam.
The baby boomers are getting to be old fogeys now. That is, the ones who didn’t fall victim to alcohol, drugs, aids, crazy driving, enviornmentally caused cancer, or promiscous availability of firearms. When we were younger, we were the lost generation. Now, we are old and in the way.
And now for something completely different. There was supposed to be a party tonight. People were going to dress up like *Native Americans* and drink vodka. A few people did not think this was a good idea, a ruckus was raised, and the party was cancelled.
Today, this was posted on Facebook. “First of all, Jesse Morgan…..who the fuck ARE you? I’ve never even heard of you before this article so, clearly, your name means nothing. Barry Brandon and Bedlam Presents, however, are nothing but the kindest, least offensive people who are merely interested in throwing a good party. A theme party is just that. No one’s running for office or trying to affect policy. If you are SINCERELY worried about the plight of the Native American people, contact your state representative and do something about it. Quit pissing on people’s good time just because you feel like your opinion is worth something. It’s not. It’s no wonder, Mr. Morgan, that a pot-stirring drama queen like yourself has not yet been permitted on the planning commmitee. Shit wouldn’t get done and the amazing parties would suffer. STFU and do something useful with that wagging tongue of yours. To Barry and the Bedlam folks, keep on keeping on with the amazingness. Love you all and I look forward to the next party!!

[…] party promoters tried to have a get together with a native american theme. Hissy fits were thrown, knickers were twisted , and the party was called off. The party promoters are now trying a socially conscious approach. […]
