just sayin.  

  

'some people can read war and peace, and come away thinkin its a simple adventure story...  others can read the ingredients on a chewing gum wrapper, and unlock the secrets of the universe.'    

What you (or who ever) would be trying to do is force these chewing gum wrappers into people's faces and begging them to validate that the secrets of the universe are in there. That makes you a Mormon missionary.

I said earlier that it isn't deep and profound, but you're claiming that I'm trying to make it sound profound, so I'm tapping out. You just wanna fight over nothing.  

You are not saying it but you are trying to paint it that way.

Edit: But do you get my point?

I like many ICP songs. I find some songs better than others. I don't get the stuff about "icp were the first people to tell me that I mattered". I don't recall them saying that, but maybe they did. I have never needed someone to tell me I matter.

"...It's a big universe and we're not!"  

ICP has always pushed the rhetoric that all of their listeners belong and matter with in the juggalo culture. Giving a sense of belonging regardless of trivial things. Except for rich people. Rich people and rural people. Which is very classist.

Same. If anything their message was always "you don't belong. Neither do we." to me. That's what I liked about it anyway. Stand on the moon, face the world and say "fuck you" and such things as that. 

Could also be why I fuckin hate Wraith: Shangri-La. I blame Twizzler's Sister for bringin in the fam' movement. There was an unspoken bond between Juggalos before them and around Freek Show that bond became just another t-shirt to sell.
