            Cthulhu is actually Lovecraft’s vision of an alien: something we (humans) wouldn’t find appealing, and that has a mind the likes of which we could not understand, it would drive us insane. for example, we are Cthulhunid to an ant.

    I swear, if you imagine someone in real life saying half the things Joyce says, there’s a major creep factor, particularly if that person is constantly smiling and staring at you with big eyes.

    And was Joyce hoping to be able to ride on the bike too? I’m imagining all three girls mounted on that this, and if I were straight, it would probably be somewhat arousing.

      I know some people like her from church. Always saying weird campy things like that. Rallying up the spirits. Try and get you involved in their bizarre activities they come up with just to figure out how to spend the day wholesomely. Never stops smiling.

      Maybe it’s just because I was raised among them but it doesn’t really come across as creepy at all imo. Pretty standard fair. She didn’t get to bring all her disney movies and has no one to play obscure board games with and there’s only so many ways one can praise the lord in a day. It’s either start brewing up some twilight fanfics and finding wholesome subjects to sing about or start exposing herself to the dangers of the secular media, and we wouldn’t want that. Gotta keep the mind busy somehow. An idle mind wanders into the devils playground and whatnot. She could find herself thinking about boys in improper ways or get curious about punk rock and then who knows what would happen? Why she might walk to school the next day with piercings everywhere, dressed in skimpy leather with her hair in green spikes and just start kissing every boy on the campus, and then the devil pretty much owns her ass.

        Logic puzzles are the best way to keep your mind busy. And what do you have against punks and goths. They are some of the nicest people you could every meet.

          Just a humorous examination of the mentality. I don’t actually have anything against either group, but I also don’t feel that a temptation to listen to a couple punk rock songs is likely to have the night culminate in getting sixteen piercings, buying a new wardrobe and some hair products so you can go to school the next day in such a state.

          Also a bit of a jibe at Joyce in the implication that she’d view kissing a bunch of boys as “Succumbing to the desires of the flesh”, and the notion that she’d just be dressed like this running around kissing boys systematically before moving on to the next one is supposed to imply that she wouldn’t actually be acting like anything real but rather her misinformed notion of what someone who has “strayed from the path of God” and accepted punk rock and lust into their lives would look like.

          Also I just think it’s really hilarious to picture Joyce dressed like that doing the “Rock Out” symbol with her hand and razzing random people in the halls.

          The devil owning her ass is supposed to create a mental image of Joyce dressed as such in compromising positions with Satan in hell, which is in my head just satirical of the entire notion of youthful music forming the path to hell.

          It’s also intentionally an outdated “New Rock and Roll”. I’m sure a lot of our parents enjoyed punk rock too when they were young or perhaps still today. Not really the most offensive thing on the market anymore. Pointing out how sheltered Joyce is. Exaggerating it to the point that she quite likely hasn’t heard of anything that’s happened in the music industry outside of Christian Rock since the eighties. Still viewing The Ramones as a new sensationalist devil music of sorts.

      Figure walking to the bike/parking/the ride takes 5 minutes. That means walking is 20 minutes. That’s probably a mile, since Billie wouldn’t jog. Many motorcycles get ~60 MPG. Call it $3.60 a gallon for gas. Sal’s wasting 6 cents. Not even worth worrying about.

        That’s even assuming Sal wasn’t going to ride it in that direction anyway. She obviously doesn’t have another class for a while – who’s to say she wasn’t going off campus for some reason regardless?

    I know at least one of these Theme Songs will go Jesus ride the bike abroad, Hallelujah, Jesus ride the bike abroad…

    A variant may be I was born to preach and pray, everything I need (yus)/ I was born with my forehead down, I was built for Jesus.

    Or the all time classic: Motorbike/ It’s how I live my life/ I can’t take it if I cannot pray/ Motorbike/ My sign of living chaste/ It’s going to take your breath away! – Don’t stop for nothing, it’s Jesus or nothing!

    Never underestimate the unbound creativity of a Chrisitan mind. 🙂

        Very nice… sadly, I don’t know many gospel songs myself, since it’s been hell of a while since I last came in contact with church and got rid of most of my memories thereof.

        My parents understood quite soon that taking me to church isn’t the best of ideas. I just don’t get the vibe of it. I almost laughed out loud at a relative’s funeral because the preacher said something like “Jesus loves all of his sheep and won’t let them stray”. (It’s weird how many zoophiliac references are in the bible if you think about it.)

The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,
