I had a friend who got into it and would get emotionally upset when I’d make fun of JR Bob Dobbs. Which was depressing, because I felt that was the whole point to Dobbs.
I’ve been a member of the Church for more than ten years and take it more seriously than I should. (I paid my $30 to Bobb when it was $30. Can’t wait for my flying pleasure saucer, already planned for where I’m turning my lasers.)
What the fuck.
Did they not participate in any form of Subgenius activity, consume any form of Subgenius art? Did they not listen to the Hour of Slack?
Like, listen to the Agent and Mr. Dobbs. Listen to the way we talk about Connie. Listen to the story about the Subgenius who gets lost on their way to to the Devival and ends up getting their corpse gang banged by wolves, dogs and cops. How on earth would you think that you are supposed to be reverent when talking about Bob?

Religiously. He spray painted a big Dobbsheads on his skateboard; I think he even got a tattoo?
I may have been mocking Dobbs. Just a little. We’d been best friends since middle school; I knew how to get on his nerves.
And he had a lot of anti-establishment anger. My rebellion was Discordianism; he hooked onto TCotS. However, I was raised Christian by a fervent father - 4x church every week - and I was inoculated against taking religion seriously. He was raised by hippies, so Subgenius was his first church, and I think he just fell into the cult mindset.
It’s fine; there are worse religions to get culty about; he just lost his perspective about TCotS, I think.
