Cult Classic: Rip-roaring shroom-fueled Scientology prank

[dorkulon]

Long, but well-worth the read, this thing is friggin' hilarious:

“If we’re going to do this,” said BEAST staffer Josh Bunting, divvying up a hefty pile of powerful blue-stemmed mushrooms, “we may as well do it right.” I couldn’t have agreed more. We choked down the decidedly unsavory psychedelics, rolled a joint, and started talking strategy.

Xenu mask“What do you think?” I asked, donning a latex alien mask and affixing a “Hello, my name is Xenu” sticker to my lapel. Bunting grunted his approval, then pulled an Incredible Hulk mask from a bag and started laughing maniacally. The fungi had begun to take hold. We quickly conceived and executed one last detail, designing and printing a stack of pro-Xenu educational leaflets to distribute at the party .We had our shtick, and we were out the door.

3. Yeah, don't miss the part

where the author is told that "ex-Scientologists rarely speak out because the church 'knows all their secrets.' "

4. A long read

but well worth it.

That writer has guts to walk in there "under the influence."
