This entry seems kind of random, but hey, what is a blog if not to record things worth mentioning in life?
Anyway, this happened a while ago, but this was at Khan’s birthday picnic.
We were passing around his card, trying to sign it in secret (and failing miserably, rofl), when one of us wanted to write a message in binary (Khan can read it). But he forgot how to do it, so he was asking around.
Now, most of us are Technites, only having been 1, 2 years in college. Also, Khan had a lot of friends and acquaintances in high school. And then there a Stuy student. When he heard the guy asking about binary, he was all “WTF are you seriously going to– you guys are geeks” and stuff like that.
I didn’t pay any attention because whatever man. I thought writing the message in binary was fscking cool, and a fellow Technite stepped up to help him write it, so no one was paying any fucking attention to the guy anyway.
And then, later, it started to rain and stuff, and we all got under the canopy and stuff. This Stuy kid when he saw us trying to stabilize the canopy (so it wouldn’t blow away) he was all “you guys are IDIOTS.” And then a little later he was all “use duct tape! I know you Tech people have some duct tape–your robotics team–”
Now, none of us Technites present were in Robotics team. And judging the entirety of Tech students because the Tech Robotics Team had duct tape?! Are you fucking serious? Now, among our group (as in, “those present for Khan’s party”) we can be a whole bunch of laughing idiots, but this guy was fucking retarded.
And then later, he left, being all, “this is STUPID.”
What-the-fuck-ever, man.
I mean, was he threatened by our Tech-ness or was he just naturally like that? None of us said anything to him about his being a former Stuy student. Pretty much none of us gave a shit. He brought that on himself, because he was surrounded, in his own deluded mind, by the “enemy”. The Pumpk1n Army, at the very least, has always been filled with people who make fun of and laugh at ourselves (General Pumpkin, General Mascara, Colonel Fatass, Lt. Colonel Peanut Butter, etc) so someone standing all high and mighty and calling us idiots? Because we went to Tech and not because we actually are a bunch of idiots? Give me a fucking break.
