Thursday Funnies

July 19, 2018 By Mike Rinder 97 Comments

 

Really?

“The best in the world”?

 

Chan Man

He’s winning — by taking your money!

 

Should be interesting

My guess — no impact at all. Anywhere on anything…

 

A field trip?

Wow, you can go harass people for fun. Imagine how much “entheta” these people are going to hear knocking on doors of people who haven’t been near an org in years.

 

Your role in Global Dissemination

Absolutely nothing…

 

Yuck

Get their start on the Bridge…

 

Tell Psychiatrist their time is up!

Yeah, except there are MANY more of them than you, and more new ones being created every year.

 

Viability

Code for “money” (that you give to us)

 

In control of life

Code for having money to give to us…

 

Exponential expansion

Actually, no, it’s the “drive for” it.

I am “driving” to become a billionaire too.

 

Part of the solution to help others…

Ermmm, no.

 

Nice kids

Pity they rarely get to see their parents, other than for a photo op.

 

Riddle me this

Why don’t they hold this at the massive, unused auditorium at the Burbank “ideal” org that is about a mile away?

Maybe they could do some magic and get some people in the place.

And remember when scientology events were about Scientology? Not a magic show, superhero convention or pirate party?

 

“Priority front row seating”

To watch a soccer match on TV?

Obviously seriously desperate to get people into their empty hotel.

 

Scientology kids

Always sad to see

 

Drug free watermelons

 

It’s tough to get anyone to show up…

But a VIDEO of bubbles Champagne should do the trick.

 

OK, so this one IS in the “ideal org”

These people don’t seem very coordinated….

 

Photo op

The only reason VM’s are ever seen anywhere…

 

12 people are ready

That should boom this place

 

Scientology Network Marathon Party

This makes me think of A Clockwork Orange.

What a sick concept.

 

WTF?

 

Two strikes

Another empty org.

Promoting kids.

Go directly to the Hall of Shame San Diego.

 

 

Stable…

As in immovable?

They really have a strange idea of what is appealing.

    “Become one of the best in the world
    JOIN THE SEA ORG”

    You’re in the Sea Org now
    You’re stuck with the lousy chow
    You’re digging a ditch
    You’ve learned to take shit
    You’re in the Sea Org now

    You’re in the Sea Org now
    To Davy be sure to bow
    You’ll never get rich
    You son of a bitch
    You’re in the Sea Org now

    You’re doing it all for Ron
    A billion years seems so long
    You think you might blow
    But where will you go?
    You’re in the Sea Org now

    You’re in the Sea Org now
    Things didn’t work out somehow
    Did what you were told
    But gave up your soul
    Just leave the Sea Org now!

    San Diego Org is empty partly due to the fact that many of their long term members who had put Scientology on the map in San Diego have been declared Suppressive. This is not lost on the field in San Diego. Those who were subjected to Scientologys black ops mis-information campaign probably did as much as anyone in helping San Diego to be a once vibrant organization. Hardly what you could call a “suppressive person” when they worked so hard for decades to service local Scientologists. The only reason they were declared was because they refused to submit to the corrupt leadership that rots from the head down in the cult. Time for the remaining fence sitters in San Diego to make their voices heard. Speak out on social media and to the press. Get up to speed with every past episode of The Aftermath so you fully understand the reason for the ongoing protest. The church is corrupt and you have been manipulated, taken advantage of and lied to. Time to hold them accountable.

    The USA Ideal Convention will be held in the Valley Ideal Org Chapel.
    Please make reservations soon as seating is limited*.

    *The Fire Marshal has set the maximum capacity of the Chapel at 49.
    This allows one chair for each state, plus the event speaker, per HCOB 104 of April 1, 1958.

    REMINDER… The newest Tom Cruise movie, “Midlife Crisis: Fallout”, is coming out on July 27.

    OOOH, look in the promo, there is Cruise hanging out of a helicopter in an icy cold and snowy landscape… Grow the fuck up, child.

    Please, everyone, go out to the cinema that night, and see and support ANYTHING BUT Tom Cruise.
    He is the face of scientology, and he must own it. Boycott him and his criminal organization.

    Oh, and Cruise, I WILL go see your little ego strokes of Hollywood fluff on one condition:

    Just abandon that criminal thug and your personal leech Miscavige, and then call a press conference to announce you are leaving scientology.

    Tom Cruise, I wrote the press release for you, and it is a gift from me to you:

    “While I have gained some benefits from the practices of scientology, my conscience can not allow me to remain a member of an organization that has a proven track record of human rights abuses. I beg forgiveness from anyone that was influenced by me to become a member of scientology, and for anyone that was hurt by my membership.”

    If you spoke these words, or something similar, I will be the first in line to see your next film. Until then, I will boycott your projects. Oh, and I speak for a LEGION of anonymous people.

    Wake the fuck up!

      Feshbach came and delivered a seminar on Financial Solvency once. Our little org was highly honored to have him there. I remember taking copious notes, not wanting to miss or forget anything this great Opinion Leader said. Apparently, a short time later he declared bankruptcy. One can only assume he’s not giving finance seminars anymore. Maybe he’s still holding seminars but has witched topics, maybe from money to love – you know, how to have a lasting, happy marriage, that kind of seminar? Maybe he’s giving relationship seminars now. Which means that soon he’ll get divorced.

    Showing up uninvited at someone’s house, someone you once knew or don’t know at all, because years ago they were in your church. But they’re not now, and haven’t been for years, so you’re going to “twin up” with someone and just go this person’s home, uninvited. Presumably this person has been phoned and/or emailed and has not responded, or has responded negatively, so – you’re just going to pay a visit, giving no notice, just going right over…

    Well, there’s so much I could say about this, but its been a long day and I’m too tired to rant, so instead I’m jgoing to ask one question::

    Is Concealed Carry legal in Florida?

    I guess the “ground recovery work” and knocking on doors is the new push now. I’ve been recently pounded with phone calls on both my land line and cell. I tell them they have the wrong number and they have the wrong person. If they insist I go into how I know about their cult cause I watch Aftermath and love Leah. The response is always we’ll take you off our list.

    I haven’t received a call in awhile, untilllllll, two weeks ago when a SO bitch called. She refused to believe that she had the wrong person on the phone. Anyway won’t go into details of this call and hung up on her. This dog wouldn’t let go of her bone. So she texts me blah, blah, blah and then says “I’m sending over a Chaplain to handle you”. I wrote back saying that if anybody showed up on my property that I would call the cops and have them arrested. Needless to say I spent the whole week worrying that they would show up at my door. I have since calmed down but nevertheless I won’t put it past them. And yes I will call the cops. But it enrages me that I have to go through this crap. Living my nice quite life and now this harassment.

    Let’s think about this for a minute. How friggin desperate can you be that you have to chase down ex-scio. every which way and then knock on their door?

    The psych poster is going to be very upsetting to some readers. Who’s going to break the news to FOOLproof that the folks in white coats herding lab rats are winning. And that’s just the psychs. If you include psychologists, counselors, therapists, etc. it is plain to see the cult is losing the numbers game. I would be willing to bet that a decent sized university cranks out more of these degrees in a single year than the cult does with its tens of thousands of Ideal Orgs, Ideal Missions, ideal Field Groups, Ideal Front Groups or Ideal Anything. While we’re at it throw in the Indies and Freezoners. Scientology has about as much societal impact a a pimple on a gnats ass. And that’s a good thing.

    If any of this were the then two things:

    The general public would be robustly invite to Ideal Morgue openings — not closed and open only to buses or flown in Scientology zombies and

    2) David Miscavige would be publicly availing himself of every media outlet he could muster to spread the news about the wonders of Scientology and what’s its crucial role in “clearing the planet” and saving mankind is. ? The guy is hiding under a rock. The last media interview he did was about twenty years ago with Ted Koppel on Nigjtline where he came across as a total whack job shyster literally talking out of one side of his mouth. You’d if though the guy was a used car sale con artist. The REASON David Miscavige never does interviews is because he IS a con artist and “scientology” IS nothing but a GIANT CON built to drain gullible fools bank accounts. That’s A FACT.

    I’d bet there are many more CW neighbors than slurch members. Even when I first got in, in 1987, waaaaaaay down in the middle of nowhere, I heard a person or two talking about trying to get OUT of CW. It’s a very hard thing to do when you’re deeply in debt and EVERYTHING in your life revolves around the slurch. As the years went by, the number of such people grew. They were in hiding from the slurch and a lot of times literally sick over it. Once they finally had their finances together, they quietly slipped away – and got well.

    Did you notice the photo of the family with the 2 kids, “You can have it all”? They all have giant bags under their eyes. Please tell me how the hell you get bags under the eyes of a 4 year old?? Is it from lack of sleep because there is no mother and father around? Maybe crying to sleep? Very sad. Oh, right, they are adults with small bodies and they can be sent to the chain locker for a few days and nights! You can see the rest of the family are powdered with make-up for the photo but the bags will only disappear with a week of 7-8 hour normal sleep to allow the expanded/swollen blood vessels to return to normal. This sort of torture is not allowed in civilized society. But, hey, LRH’s personal research proves beyond any doubt that small children locked in chain lockers for days or kissed passionately, etc… will stop their screaming because you can’t hear their muffled crying. Oh, and don’t forget the magnificent work LRH did on his son, Quintin. If Quintin was not driven to suicide by his father, I am sure he would be with us on this website or the Aftermath program. He was my CS on the Apollo. He was the nicest, sweetest person you can imagine. A kind and loving person…so opposite his father.

    Well, “you can have it all” is simply not true in the Sea Org because you certainly can’t have sleep when you need it. And, you can’t have a real family either. At least a family you love that will not be disconnected from you because you doubt LRH’s magnificent handling of children. There is simply NO ROOM for love in Scientology. Love is totally consumed by LRH’s greed for money and gaining power over others.

      For the sake of accuracy, these are regular org staff; not sea org. Those little one’s would bar the parents from SO ’til they’re older. But I’ve seen couples on staff try to raise kids – with very rare exception it’s a pathetic joke. Practically EVERYTHING else in life takes a back seat to their post stats, including kids. Overall, only staff members with a successful non-staff money-maker for a spouse do well.

        Yes, that is correct. I was in the Sea Org 1971 to 76 at AOSHEU and the staff had children. It was a sad state of affairs. True enough. But. I thought the vests they were wearing in the photo were reserved only for bellhops and Sea Org members…. I guess the outer Orgs get that fine uniform too… I drive past the Fort Harrison and Sand Castle every day and often thought they need one of those yellow warning signs something like this: picture a bellhop carrying suitcases and it says:

    My favorite is the “recovery” campaign, where they are trying to get people to run around Clearwater and knock on doors to “recover” people who left Scientology behind as an embarrassing part of their past decades ago. Given that Florida has that “stand your ground” law, which allows you to get away with shooting people who you think might be threatening you, one wonders what will happen when some nervous homeowner gets a third visit in one day from OT’s looking to get somebody back on the bridge.

      John P., it is not a problem for real OTs engaging in door to door recovery efforts. If someone does invoke their ‘stand your ground’ rights these OTs would be able to submit all sorts of fantastic anecdotes to Advance Magazine telling of their ability to dodge bullets or heal their wounded meat sack if they weren’t quite fast enough in the bullet dodging dept.

      “stand your ground” law, which allows you to get away with shooting people who you think might be threatening you is the quickest way to end up in prison.

      “Stand your ground” only applies if your life is in imminent danger. It means that you can defend yourself rather than run and hide and end up with a bullet in your back.

      The law is very clear on this. As a matter of fact, if you take the time to fire a warning shot then your life was NOT in imminent danger at that moment.

      If a Scientologist or JW or someone resembling one of them showed up at my door, I doubt that I would think they might be threatening me just for showing up.

      Furthermore, a nervous homeowner should probably not own a firearm.

        Well, how about answering the door with an unloaded shotgum cradled in your arms, barrel pointed downward, but obviously ready to do busness? No legal problem there, I’d venture.
        Moving right along….a couple weeks ago, two Mormon fellas started walking up to my door. I opened the door and told them politely, but firmly, “Sorry guys, I’m not interested.” They very politely backed off with a “God bless you.” They quickly got that ‘no means no.” Fat chance of the $cions ever being that well-behaved.

        How I would love the pleasure of saying to any of them showing up at my door, “Thank you for the information. And now, you have my permission to withdraw”.

        And if they didn’t immediately leave: “I’m so sorry. This is private property, and I’m afraid if you refuse to leave I shall have to contact the authorities.”

        Oh, it would be so much fun, channeling Audrey Hepburn.

      Yo Dave,
      Speakin of too ………….. it happened again tooday ……….. at too. Howz those stats of yers? Tankin’ no doubt.

      I have learned that one of yer radarites (as in under the radar) has decided that if one event has been attended, the other three can be bypassed without penalty. Great news cause the still-inneys hate those crappy events anyway.

      But I digress.

      1) Nice of you to let Effey out to play yesterday. I’m sure he/she/it will need some recovery time.
      2) Send one of yer recovery teams by the house. I’d love to chat ……….. unless yer too chicken Dave!.

      You’re right Silvia… that’s is the best they could do… It’s the incredible shrinking world of Scientology.

      The feeding frenzy is over for these sharks. They already ripped-off the last nickels and dimes from their public. They ate every member with money and now, because their PR is in the toilet and they have no new people, they only have each other to feed on…”where the greedy feed on the weak”. That should be the sign over the entrance gate to Scientology.

    You want to know how pathetic they are and how desperate they are becoming?

    I just received a letter from a Eunice Spallino at ASHO that states:

    Dear Badafuco, (real name redacted)
    How are you doing?
    Apparently you have not been doing scientology for over 20 years.
    Have you seen the Truth About Drugs DVD?
    I want to see you make progress on your bridge.

    ARC,
    Eunice Spallino
    Letter Reg ASHO.

    OK Eunice, let’s break this down: You don’t care how I’m doing. (Better than ever)
    You know why I’ve been out for 20 years? You are money grubbing, batshit crazy lunatics. Just think how much money I saved over two decades?
    No, I haven’t seen your lame DVD. I know my own truths about drugs.
    You won’t be seeing me anytime soon, dumbass. Save the paper and postage.

      Eunice is not a dumbass. See is worked to death, underpaid and has no time to think for herself. She’s been at it at least 40 years now and is likley proud of that.
      I wonder where her husband Mike and children are?
      So she’s not dumb but she does not think for herself – she thinks like Ron wants her too – dumb.

              That is so true. Your house burns down, your car blows up, you barely survive both, you’ve lost your job and can’t pay the bills and all they’ll tell you at the org is:
              MAKE IT GO RIGHT.
              Sometimes it makes you just want to strangle somebody.

    How has scn TV impacted the ideal org strategy? NOT AT ALL. It hasn’t impacted ANYthing in the real (or imagined) world. The only people watching it are all-ins forced to watch to give it SOME stats. Otherwise, its viewing public woould be zero or less. No one not forced to could take much of that drek.

      That’s because I stole everyone of his toys. Then I ground them up into fine powder. Lastly, I blew that powder into the wind. I thought it would be more useful that way.

    1. “Find out how SCNTV has impacted the ideal org strategy”? I thought clam TV was supposed to bring in more members. The idea morgue strategy is to raise money. These two are not linked, unless they are now going to say that demand is so high because of clam TV that they need more money for buildings. How can anyone believe this, when they see their own building is empty?

    2. Mar and Mar? Are these people who are embarrassed to share their full names?

When buildings get important to us, for God sakes, some of you born revolutionists will you please blow up central headquarters". L Ron Hubbard Lecture 31 Dec 1960
"Personal integrity is knowing what you know. What you know is what you know and to have the courage to know and say what you have observed".- LRH from Personal Integrity
