Something Can Be Done About It

Thursday Funnies

By 108 Comments

Minions_800_450

Of course, the focus this time of year is on the magnificent Maiden Voyage events, things no scientologist would want to miss (though a large number of them do just that, the attendance keeps getting smaller and smaller and the hype and gimmicks they resort to become more and more bizarre).

 

Our Friend Rupert Murdoch

Always good to hear from Twit of the Year. Wonder if he realizes that Rupert Murdoch is a YUGE SP Merchant of Chaos? Clearly the brown nosing instinct and desire to appear to be an important person trumps even his “I am the most important scientologists in the UK” status.

We went to MV and all we got was this lousy T-shirt

Nobody ever accused Miscavige of being cheap… Though of course, he is. These suckers fork over ten grand at least for the dubious privilege of being within spitting distance of Dear Leader and his idea of a special gift is a t-shirt. Surprised it didn’t have his face on it (Mad Magazine t-shirt anyone?)

Charlie’s Angels

Seriously?

And the Jive Asses are the 4th most productive FSMs for London Org. OMG.

Screenshot (49)

 

Progress? Not really…

The years go by and they just don’t seem to get anywhere near being done. Even though they had a big completion celebration at one point. There are still a LOT more empty little boxes than yellow ones.

The Pitches

Check out this conservative style approach from some “OL” in the UK….

Screenshot (754)

 

Now compare it to this from one of the hypemasters of Porn Valley….

Screenshot (754a)

They are apparently trying a new approach. This is apparently the new fad:  using “Opinion Leaders” to beg people to show up.

This final one is a bit too honest methinks…. “This getting up the Bridge is challenging.”

Screenshot (768a)

 

 

They used to offer just food

Now they are trying entertainment too… (Of course, back in the “good ole days” the EVENT was what got people to show up)

Screenshot (758)

 

 

“Lord” Loehwing speaks

This guy should team up with John Mappin. Self-importance button much?  Funny how these ex-SO somehow become the mainstays for so many orgs…

Screenshot (761)

 

AWESOME Valley T-Shirts

But not as awesome as the COB t-shirts.

But get a load of this LRH quote – and how they are going to “apply it”. “Who are these Valley guys?”

Stooges. Fools. Cocksplats.Screenshot (762)

 

Dress Code

Dress as if you were from another country? And of course, the old favorite – pirates. In keeping with the scientology theme of rape, pillage and plunder.

Screenshot (764)

 

Endless Tampa CF

Still going strong (weak?). And it’s so exciting Harrison Ford is coming!

What better way to spend July 4th could there be?

Screenshot (765)

Tom Cruise too!

Don’t you love the copyright notices on these things. All sorts of scientology copyrights being preserved blah blah and nary a mention of the copyrights of the movie studios….

Screenshot (766)

 

Battlefield Earth Hype

It is so strange to read these things when you know what they are hyping. It’s “been in the making for several years” — hah. It was actually “made” in 1983…Screenshot (767)

 

This one tops them all…

Shakespeare has been eclipsed. Dickens demolished. Tolstoy trashed. It’s the new standard for fiction… And the C/S of ASHO is of course an international expert on the subject.

Screenshot (768b)

 

Bill to the rescue

The first people who need your seminar are the staff of Valley org. Check out all those empty boxes Bill.

Screenshot (769)

 

 

This is scientology “management”

Running fiction booksales for the world to see… Oh, what a religious movement this is.

Screenshot (774)

 

Wall of Shame

Screenshot (778)

Screenshot (792)

 

Irony

Scientologists are well practiced at throwing people out of their families.

Screenshot (779)

 

Optional Conventions

They come, they go. If nobody shows up, ah well.

The Moneywinds should be rechristened as the WISE Private Club Yacht. It is literally one week after another of WISE guys working for FSM Commissions.

Screenshot (787)

Do they even know what a Jolly Roger is?

Pirates really are the beingness that best represents scientology today. (*Jolly Roger is the traditional English name for the flags flown to identify a pirate ship about to attack during the early 18th century)Screenshot (788)

 

He hits the nail on the head

Tim seems to capture the reality of life in a small and failing org better than most. And he is certainly more candid.

Screenshot (789)

 

More hype

This is the winner for this week. There has never been an event in scientology that is one time only. They play them over and over and over.

Wonder if anyone believes this. At all?

But it is nice that it is “personally writing you” – it always sounds so… impersonal.

Screenshot (790)

 

The Valley also has Kevin Wilson

So how come he hasn’t straightened out the finances of the org? Or gotten all those empty squares filled in?

Screenshot (791)

 

Love to know what this “DVD” is…

Another “never before seen” item? Only to be seen in the church of scientology of Ohio in Florence Kentucky. Yeah, must be epic and monumental for sure.

Screenshot (793)

 

 

COB dropped a bomb

It’s a #2 and it’s a big one.

No hype here….Screenshot (794)

 

It will be rocking!

They will no doubt have a bunch of expendable Sea Org members (ie non-registrars) ready in civilian clothes in case nobody shows up other than Bubbles Champagne. Maybe we will have a report on what happens at this “open to the public” (except for the people we decide it is not open to), event.

Screenshot (798)

 

Come from around the world…

…and stay overnight to watch a video replay of an event that was held a month ago with a “landmark announcement.” That makes sense.

But never fear, Bubbles is right onto it, along with the OT Farce. Bet they are overwhelmed with thousands arriving for 3 nights in a cheap-ass motel…

This says it all about the state of desperation in scientology. Screenshot (799)

  1. I recall doing the “havingness” rundown at the Fraud Scam Base (Flag). Throw around money until you cognite that you CAN and WILL throw money around.

    This process costs $10,000 or more.

    It gets you “used” to and “genned in” to throw and waste money …even if it is borrowed….meanwhile the vulture Regges are standing by foaming at the mouth in hopes to win the “fruit plate wars” so they can buy tampons, eat and smoke.

    RIP Hy Lev, Registrar at Flag.

    Thank you for sharing the TRUTH about this evil cult’s Mecca of Technical Extortion. For those of you who did not know about Hy Levy – watch his whistle blowing You Tube Videos.

    For those lurkers with terminal illness, compliments of Scientology, please unburden on the various blogs regarding Scientology. It is the right thing to do and it will relieve your conscious.

    Reminder: Kick that hornets nest “SP’s” and keep telling the truth about Scamontology!

    https://youtu.be/jaq2kj8waog

    Hy Levy’s best year as a Registrar was $15,000,000. He was a “volunteer” who made $50 per week working 12 hour days. The services were also “delivered” by volunteer’s that worked 12-16 hour days making $50 per week, if lucky.

  2. So fun as usual to read those Thursday’s FUNNIES.
    By the way, does anyone know if Margie ESTERMANN is still in ASHO. She used to be the SNR CS ASHO Day and now I see COSIMO being the SNR CS. What happened to Margie ?

  5. Murdoch and Trump – Evil and Eviller. Mappin – clueless git.
    I’d buy a pair of trousers with an image of Demento, with his mouth open, on the back of the pants.
    Gerson’s plug was a sad indictment on a trapped mind.
    Source Night – see above.
    My bs o’meter went into overdrive after a quick perusal on the ‘net about Loehwing.
    Hubbard’s “literary legacy” immediately brought to mind Theodore Sturgeon’s (paraphrased) revelation, “Ninety percent of everything he wrote is crap.”
    Dress as your favourite pirate; would I get in dressed as Demento wearing a Demento mask?
    Sequence of Expansion is just another way of saying that the only thing expanding is Dork Maniacal’s bank account.
    44 CD’s? Are they joking…oh wait, I keep forgetting that it’s $camology so it will be another ten years or so before they discover the wonders of DVD.
    More photos of children from Scotland that give me the creeps.
    Ken Kramer is becoming more and more delusional as time goes by.
    Optional Conventions – It now appears they couldn’t fill a bathtub, let alone a boat named Bleeds Money.
    The rubbish people like Tim spews has become a giant yawn inspiring event and rates with watching grass dry and paint grow.
    Demento is trying desperately (that word and its derivations gets a lot use when talking about $camology) to keep the rush of “the war is over” high and is failing miserably. As he fails again and again he becomes more insular and hides from reality. Pathetic little man with little man syndrome doomed to continual failure.

  7. Hi Mike. I didn’t read all the comments…..so maybe someone already told you…..did you pick up a copy of today’s TBT?
    COB is on the cover.
    Yep. Awesome.

    • Yes, I commented on it on Facebook and Twitter.

      This is what I said:

      Miscavige steps in to make it go right and ensure there will never be a downtown aquarium that will attract “wogs” into his Clearwater kingdom.

      Will Clearwater ever wake up? It is almost too late, so much of downtown is already owned by scientology it will never recover.

      It’s sad to watch – they seem convinced the land sales will ultimately result in Disney World, in fact they are getting an Edsel factory.

  8. Murdoch isn’t only the prime Merchant of Chaos on Teegeeack, he also loathes Scientology with a passion. Twit of the Year apparently doesn’t know this, otherwise he wouldn’t be celebrating the meeting of the two satanic forces whose blood when mixed will open the vortex to the underworld…

    …yes, I do support Hillary. Why do you ask? Come on, I’m from Chicago and I’m gay. Who else am I going to support?

    That t-shirt looks like it’s fifteen years old and been washed in hot water every time it’s been laundered. No, wait, I have fifteen-year-old t-shirts with better-looking silkscreening than that thing. Call it twenty years old, washed in hot water, and worn every day by a construction worker.

    And my fucking plane back to Chicago’s been delayed a half hour. My OT Powerz must not be working today.

    Hmmm, so Valley Org had people hand out promotional flyers for their big do this upcoming weekend. This event proved that even Scientologists can’t be body-routed anymore. GIVE UP THE BODY ROUTING! IT DOESN’T WORK!

    My wonder about the London FSMs isn’t why the Jive Asses are the fourth most successful. It’s how the King of the Douchebags is the seventh most successful. For London Idle Morgue, Grant? Really? When your home morgue, Mighty My Mammy, isn’t Idle yet, you’ve gone to the other side of the Atlantic to grub money? Shame on you, Your Royal Douchiness. Shame on you.

    “Pitmaston” is, of course, the future home of Brummieham Idle Morgue. Glad to see it’s being used for some purpose. This place, a beautiful house, is actually being renovated. It, of course, will be under renovation until the sun becomes a white dwarf.

    “You have to be in present time to understand exactly where we are headed.” You’re headed for the septic tank, dude. Anyone in present time is able to see that. Why aren’t you? Oh, wait, this is Stan Gerson, the magician guy. The rabbit in his hat must have eaten into his skull.

    Sorry, Mike, but the words “Stacy Francis” and “entertainment” should never be in close proximity. Well, at least she’s graduated from being the Gladys Knight to AKNE’s Pips (and whatever happened to AKNU? You never see cult promos for them anymore.)

    “Three magic words that will change your life”: “You’ve got AIDS”. Those are three words that would change most people’s lives.

    “Dress as if you were from another country”: okay, I’ll put on about thirty kilos, then find the smallest Speedo that I can stretch over my nethers. Voila, I’m a German tourist!

    Is the “new” “21st Century” edition of Battlefield Earth printed on absorbent paper? If so, that’s about a month or two worth of toilet paper for OSD. Hubbard does have some use!

    Did Bill J. admit in that promo that Admin Tech is total shit and does not guarantee expansion? Why, yes, yes he did. Naughty, naughty, peeling back the Ol’ Man’s curtain like that. You need to be spanked, Bill, with a copy of the 21st Century Edition of Battlefield Earth. There should be lots of copies lying around.

    HAPI, stop it with the kids, will you? Because of your kids thing, we’re stuck in the lower 70s on Reasons Why Scotland Is Better. You promised a hundred, you fuckers, you’re going to deliver a hundred. Or else.

    So how do you spell Jeannie Franks Bogvad Whatever’s latest last name? This is about the fourth variant that I’ve seen. The bitch is your goddamn ED, Cincy Across The River In Kentucky. You should know how to spell her name.

    And since I need to find an outlet for the laptop, I’ll end with this: the wonderful thing about the British is that during times of national trauma like they’ve been having for the last two weeks, they know how to insult. Although David Tennant’s example was good, my favorite courtesy of reading the Guardian’s comment sections is “cockwomble”. Used by any number of people to describe Boris Johnson, it also works for other people with ridiculous hair. A dwarf with a pompadour, for example.

    Enjoy.

  12. So, in their minds ecclesiastical activities include:
    -wearing a “Coolest Religion on Earth” T-Shirt because your church told you to.
    -buying a fiction book in mass quantities to pump up sales, even though I’m guessing there are more fake reviews on Amazon then actual sales.
    -spending your holiday weekend sorting mail in the most antiquated system of filing imaginable.

    “little-known”, “never before seen”, “in the works for several years”…they sure like their mystery sandwiches with a large helping of secret sauce.

  13. Burbank Mission? LMAO. So that’s how Mitch T. keeps Miss Cabbage from beating him on a regular basis. He owns a “Mission” (which means regular minimum purchases from Bridge.)

  14. The ‘Maiden Voyage’ has been going on for 27 years (or more) and is done at least 4 (1 ‘event’ in 4 different parts?) 1x times a year.

    At what point does the ‘Maiden’ become a tired old toothless prostitute? I count 108 times this ‘vessel’ has ‘voyaged’ and it must be very rusty by now. As excuses for fund raising go, this one has been used too often. The audience knows exactly what will happen. A few ‘hip, hip, horrays’ for Lron and then the reging will rage.

    Mappin proves his fealty to Lron and the COB. By continuing to be a major league putz. He alone is keeping many off the Bridge of Despairs. We should laud him for that, and that alone.

    • Hi zemoo, Good to see you.I am with you the Maiden Voyage thing really grates on me.As you commented the vessel has voyaged on enough BS from COS to send her directly to Davey Jones’s special locker for really worn out sea roamers.I have to say with the state of thing ,the image of regging rages made me giggle.Hopefully they will rage to empty decks except for the totally Ron/David Aided who will go down with the cult-ship.Sad but they will not see.XO Ann B

  15. Hmm…mega 4th dynamic announcement as big as “the War is Over”. What could that be? Based on known past events this year, it could be their win in the Belgian Criminal case, they could blow they up into a 20 year fight threatening their very existence. But who knows.
    Different subject – the BE campaign. This one is truly pathetic. ASI must be doing like total crap as all they can do is recycle and recycle LRH fiction works, some of which are over 80 years old. And there is the Church policy imperatives from LRH books, and popularizing the name of LRH as a fiction writer as a first step, is what ultimately leads to getting people into the Church. So they have to recycle this stuff and their campaigns…and some idiot, probably Miscavige, remembers how successful the BE campaign was when HE was COB ASI so tells them to do it all again, including the manipulation. But truth is that LRH fiction and ASI’s recycling function has an ever diminishing return that is reaching the point of no return.
    David Miscavige, master recycler on the porch of oblivion.

  21. Hi Mike, in the last post from Kaye, she calls for OTs to attend (i.e., III, IV, Vs, VIIs and VIII’s). Aside from the weird inconsistent punctuation, any idea why she skipped over OTVI? She hopped from OT V to OT VII. What? OT6 is chopped liver? Why would OT5 be more desirable than an OT6? I thought each level was an advancement over the others … each level supposedly making you better than the last. I’m a never-in voracious reader of your blog and the Bunker. And while I have an understanding of most Co$ lingo and Co$ history… the minutiae escapes me much of the time. So in a nutshell … why is attendance of an OT5 more desirable than the attendance of an OT6. Could it be that Kaye was rushing and is confused by Roman Numerals and just forgot OT VI? Thanks Mike. I really appreciate your page and read daily. Always an eye-opener!

    Reply

    • OT VI is just the study course for auditing on OT VII. So, as soon as you complete OT VI you start on OT VII and then are “OT VII” or “on OT VII”. Nobody calls themselves “OT VI”. All the other “solo” levels have the learning part and then the auditing part designated as the same OT level. OT “VII” is split into two separate “OT” levels. It’s a silly anomaly. But what else is new.

    Sorry I can’t attend any of your events. I’m actually working! Just send me the links and I’ll check them out on my smartphone. Oh, and before I forget, let me correct the LRH quote so you guys can actually increase your prosperity and not just talk about it.

    “Money flows toward points which attract pro-survival attention. All you’ve got to do is stand up there and keep on being pro-survival and be pro-survival in a widening communication sphere and you will have to start throwing this stuff away!”

    Change to:

    “Money flows to those who produce something a vast majority of people want. All you’ve got to do is figure out a real need and make it easily available at an attractive price and you’ll have lots of money. Forget about throwing the stuff away.”

    You’re welcome!

    • Children are the only people left who’ll give the look of expectancy of listening to them that they haven’t already scammed out. It the lowest of lows to exploit the innocence of children but this is the Church of Scientology – one comes to expect that sort of thing.
      You don’t want to think too closely about what a Scientologist has in store for pets and household plants – they’re next! I’m not joking, the attention they have already given and continue to give on mundane things like food and imaginative playacting, re pirates, gangsters etc is very real for them. The playbook of a Scientologist’s activities is the study of “stuck in reverse imagination.” They crave attention and will go to any lengths to get it. Problem is they burn every bridge (pun intended) in their effort to please command intention – they have nowhere else to go… except weird!

  27. wonderful news!!!!! This is a faith that wants Money to be everything! Such spirituality…and remember: “it is my religion; so do not be a bigot.”
    Also, the “OL” in the UK wants it to be: “confinred.” Is that confirmed, or confined. I think the later.

    A bunch of Hooey; that sadly I was once involved with. And the “wasband” is still up to his receding hairline involved. He is now 64, and spends almost all of his life in the Org. Raising dough for them, & blindly obeying the whims of the cult. He has No memories of being with his children; and now spends no time with grandchildren. And he and his parents DO NOT CARE! sick

  32. I don’t comment much any more, but I can’t resist today. I’ll go out on a limb and say: that t-shirt is downright embarrassing! Does David Miscavige get a kick out of degrading people and getting them to degrade and humiliate themselves while thinking it’s the coolest thing?

    Then there’s the OL Robert inviting to Pitmaston (where on Earth???). He nearly slipped in a bit of truthiness there, though. Almost typed “already been confined for this event” (would have fitted nicely).

    All in all, does scientology get stranger the more you leave it behind or is it actually getting stranger as time passes, or both?

    And one more thing: markets involve demand and supply. They have identified poverty as a problem and wealth as a demand. How is it, after all these decades, they still have not risen above offering “prosperity”? When will we see seminars on subjects like, “How to access your whole track mind to bring scientific breakthroughs to current society” or “How to heal by the power of postulates”? Anyone? Anyone?

    • Does David Miscavige get a kick out of degrading people and getting them to degrade and humiliate themselves

      Simple answer. Yes. He is a sociopath. He enjoys having power over people. His definition of power is the ability to get people to do things against their self-interest. He gets a kick out of being able to get people to give money to his benefit when it harms them. I have always said, it is not about the money itself (he has more available to him than he could EVER spend) it is about the measure of power he exerts over others. From the largest whale (who willings turns over tens of millions for NOTHING) to the smallest fish who uses their children’s college fund or mortgages their home to contribute to an “ideal org” this is the most satisfying thing to him.

      The t-shirts are just a small indicator.

      The real test — he will NEVER wear one in public. Just like he doesn’t give ANY of his personal money to the IAS or Ideal Orgs. And he doesn’t redo the Student Hat or Objectives. He hasn’t done the Running Program. Probably hasn’t done Super Power. But he can command other people to do so, and that is all that matters.

      • But in Miscavagie’s mind does he think the T-shirts are embarrassing to wear, or does he think they really are cool? Obviously I don’t expect anyone to really know the answer, but in his mind he probably thinks any reference to Scientology really is cool?

        Reply

        • To me, that T-shirt is the indicator of where Scientology went wrong; by promoting itself as a fad. And I can’t believe that they’re still doing it. In the 40s through the 60s, the cool thing to be in Hollywood was a Christian Scientist. Then the 60s through the early 90s it was Scientology. That was then followed by Yehuda Berg and the Kabbalah Centres. You can see this in that Scientology isn’t the only religion with empty churches. Look at Christian Science.

  34. The absence of new, young public at events and the increase of young foreign staff is palpable evidence the cult is closing down. Events are not only shrinking, but they are educating the attendees of how Scientology is not expanding.

  35. if scientology actually did what it promises to do all of this begging would not be needed. The world would knock the doors down for the ‘tech’. their own public wouldn’t need to be begged to attend, they’d be clamoring too.

    The overblown language is embarrassing.

    Thanks, Mike. Reading this carp makes me so thankful to be out.

      • no honey…I wasted hella time learning how to read carp. I finally learned how to wrap it in newspaper and throw it in the rubbish bin along with all the other smelly foul filthys. You don’t wanna learn how to read carp. (“3 points per definition fully cleared” bah) I’ll browse bass with ya any old day. We could get a boat and a cooler and some pillows for the arse, sit out on a sunny day and see what’s biting.
