Uptick In Skillet-Related Violence Finally Explained
My curiosity was piqued by CJ’s last post, so I just looked at the Pacifica Forum site for the first time in God knows how long, and I was immediately struck by the following item from last year:
08/31 – Metting [sic] on the upcoming Tolerance/Intolerance Breakfast.
Immediately afterwards we have
09/07 – Further discussion about the Tolerance/Intolerance Breakfast.
Then there’s a brief spell of 9/11 conspiracy theories and whatnot, before the ominous/hilarious conclusion:
9/21 – Post-Mortem on the Tolerance/Intolerance Breakfast, (reports and discussion)
Now, apart from the fact that it sounds like the title of one of the experimental films from Infinite Jest, I can’t help but imagine what the minutes from that meeting were like. (Be it resolved: at future events, the intolerant people should not be allowed more than one bloody mary.)
And to think that this week’s Eugene Weekly featured a letter (scroll down to “See For Yourself”) decrying the “caricature” of the Pacifica Forum that ran in the Weekly back in December.
Who needs to caricature them when they’re holding “post-mortems on the Tolerance/Intolerance Breakfast?”
