Listen to what the purple bunny tells you. . .
Like, dude, I was like stoned off my ass and listening to REM and I saw
God.
Dude, He looks just like Michael Stipe -- only shorter. Only like His voice
was different and stuff, more gravely and every so often it would do this like
echo thing, you know like in those MONSTER TRUCKS commercials and shit. Dude,
like those things freak me out. Dude.
Anyway, like He was attended by twenty angels. At least, I like lost count
around then, cuz like I was stoned off my ass. Anyway,
their wings were the color of soot
and their feet were of burnished brass
and their tongues were made of flame
and everything they did touch turned to molten jello. . .
So, like, I knew He was God, right?
Anyway, like He said unto me -- unto ME, Loki FruFru, "Loki FruFru, you just
keep doin' what you're doin'. Yeah, you just groove and all that shit people
are always on your back to do, like to get a job or like marry some rich hare
or somthin', you just ignore all that cuz you are the Chosen One, Loki FruFru,
and like you just groove cuz like you're the Chosen One, and like your destiny
will fulfill itself. So, like chill out and shit and don't worry, cuz like
you're the Chosen One." Cuz like God talks to you in the way you understand, so
like if I'd been one of those uptight preacher-dudes He'd been saying all those
"thees" and "thous" and shit but since this was me, Loki FruFru, the
Chosen One, like he knew he could let it all hang out and shit.
Then He left, and I was tempted
eight times, but that's another story.
Like all that boppin' field mice on the head shit? Dude, that wasn't me, that
was my uncle. He was in the war, so he used to have flashbacks and shit. I
don't dig that violence stuff, it's just not my thing, ya know?
Dude. did I like ever tell you I met Charles Manson? Yeah, I was like stoned
off my ass and listening to Revolution Number 9 and there he was. He said
there was going to be like a race war between humans and purple things, and
then he tried to kill me. I survived by locking myself in my hat and stuff, but
that's another story.
Pulling a rabbit out of a hat. Like, that is so degrading for the
rabbit.
You're treating him just like an object. I mean, people complain that "Playboy
Bunnies" are degrading to women, but what about bunnies? I don't want to be
associated with ape-decended females. Dude, that is like so degrading.
Did I ever tell you one of my friends saw Satan? Like, me and a couple of my
friends, Grimace and Barney -- cuz like we purple dudes stick together -- we
were hangin' out -- dude, like, stop screaming, this was before Barney was like
famous and shit and like sold out and got his own show. Anyway, like we were
all trippin' and Barney was reading Dante and all of a sudden he screams out
"He's
here! He's here!" so I'm like "Cool, dude. Like who's got some bread to pay the
pizzaman?" and he's like "No, dude, Satan! He's here! He's talking to me!" and
Grimace and I were like "Whatever, dude. . ." but like later I smelled
brimstone, or at least I think it was brimstone cuz like I've never smelled
brimstone and I was like tripping but I thought it was brimstone at the time.
Come to think of it, he got his show soon after that. Anyway, that was the
closest I came to Satan before the time of my
eightfold temptation, but that's
like another story.
