Members of the HOE Community, I have openly wronged you. Yea, even as I was doing it, I knew that I was committing a horrible error, but still I went through with it, hoping that perhaps it would be as bad as everyone told me. Still, I did it, and now I must deal with the consequences of my actions. The purpose of this letter is to apologize to everyone else, who must also deal with the consequences of my actions. It is an unfair imposition on both your emotional and intellectual cognitive functions, and for that I am sorry. I never really meant to hurt any of you. Perhaps you wonder of which I speak. Of course, I can only be referring to the induction of Unrelated into HOE. He is a full fledged member because of me. I personally demanded that Mogel make him a member. It is my fault that we shall forever be deluged with his witty commentaries on the American youth scene, particularly centered on East Chitlun Switch, Iowa. It is my fault that we shall forever suffer under the hideous yoke of files that discuss Trends, Hipness, What It Means to Be Truly Cool (With Apologies to Henry Winkler), Marilyn Manson, Why Rap Sucks, Why Black People Need to Learn English, Why I'm Not Racist Even Though Black People Need to Learn English, Why Christianity is Stupid (With Apologies to Negativland), Why It's Fucked Up That People Keep Stealing My Backpack and Using It for a Toilet, Society is Pretty Stupid, People Are Stupid, People Are Jerks, Isn't it Fucked How People at The Mall Suck?, Trends, Hipness, What It Means to Be Truly Cool (With Apologies to Henry James), Twiggy Ramierez, Why Rap Blows, Why Black People Need to Get Jobs, Why I'm Not Racist Even Though I Oppose a Decadent and Wasteful Welfare System, Why EYEHATEGOD.TXT, Why It's Fucked Up That People Keep Mistaking My Face for a Toilet, People REALLY are Stupid, People REALLY are Jerks, and, of course, the perennial favorite, Isn't It Fucked How the Mall BLOWS? I feel a lot like Hindenburg when he heard that Hitler really won the elections. The SA are at our door, the VisiGOTH hordes are outside of Rome, and Unrelated is running unchecked, and there's nothing we can do to stop him. At the very least, dear fellows, take this as a minor consolation prize. I am humbled before you, humbled before my own idiocy, and humbled before God, (who, by the way, I hear sucks pretty bad.) I am, Sincerely Yours, Jarett Kobek [--------------------------------------------------------------------------] [ (c) !LA HOE REVOLUCION PRESS! HOE #661 - WRITTEN BY: AIDS - 5/31/99 ]
