halfelf pointed out an article about a guy who thinks that Stephen King killed John Lennon.

The very idea is, of course, absurd.

It's obvious that Lennon was killed by the occult conspiracy behind the rise of the Neoconservatives as a ritual assassination of all the positive aspects of the '60s Youth Revolution.

It was all part of the obscene memetic ritual that turned Hippies into Yuppies.

Your Obedient Serpent had figured that one out by 1985.

You know, I feel compelled to point out that I don't find you a very obedient serpent at all.

When I was living in Bangor, everyone just knew, really, that King had killed Lennon. There were even t-shirts, "Stephen King murdered John Lennon and all I got was this lousy t-shirt."

For some reason, Lennon was really hated in Bangor. They would have these rituals during blizzards out in the woods where Lennon's spirit would be summoned into an effigy which would then be set on fire. Near where I lived was a seminary and they had lectures on How to Pillory John Lennon and John Lennon: Threat or Menace? V. weird, but all is as I've said.
