Ovaltine Goose-Shredder pitched an
investigative piece to Piss Awesome Journalism and it went so
horribly we had to print it. The off the charts amount of attention
The Preacher Firestone is currently receiving has pushed
Goose-Shredder to an insane and clearly unhealthy jealousy, leading
him to posit the hypothesis that becoming prophet-like is only a
matter of the amount of drugs one ingests. To test this theory,
Ovaltine Goose-Shredder ate a quarter ounce of psilocibin mushrooms
and tried to write an article that would accurately convey his
prophet-like qualities. The copy he turned in was a sheet of lined
paper that had been torn in half with the word sizzles written in the
bottom right corner. Here it is re-printed in it's entirety.
sizzles.
A call was placed to Goose-Shredder by
Piss Awesome Journalism about halfway through his experiment, he
estimates. “Time is a part of real-life, and real life doesn't
exist when you're on mushrooms. I'm assuming I got the call halfway
through the trip because I was high as balls when I was talking to
you.” he says. This is the transcript:
Ovaltine Goose-Shredder: [voice sounds
faint] Jesus Christ? Hello?
Piss Awesome Journalism: Hey, what's
going on? How's the propheting coming along?
OGS: [faint] Where are you?
PAJ: Right here in the phone, dude.
OGS: [yelling faintly] No you're... I'm
fucking high man, don't do that!
PAJ: What's the issue?
[twenty seconds pass]
PAJ: Hey!
OGS: [loud] Proximity!
PAJ: So now that...
OGS: Near and far.
PAJ: How...
OGS: [voice goes faint to loud] Near
and far.
PAJ: How...
OGS: It all depends how close you are.
PAJ: [waits several seconds] ... Are you
done yet?
OGS: Not... yet?
PAJ: So how is the piece coming along?
OGS: The piece of what?
PAJ: Writing.
OGS: Good... I can't concentrate at
all. It will be good.
PAJ: Good?
OGS: The thing is... it's hard. I can
only remember the last word, so I'm trying to remember it backwards.
PAJ: Just write something new if you
can't remember it.
OGS: No, like, it is new, I just can't
remember it.
PAJ: You mean you actually don't have
anything?
OGS: NO! I have it, I just need to
remember it.
PAJ: Right, well
I'm going to plan on running some other story then, and you have fun
tripping balls.
OGS: What? Wait, am
I on drugs?
PAJ: Yes.
OGS: [whispering]
Oh, that makes so much sense.
The phone was
abandoned by Goose-Shredder at this point. The rest of the transcript
is just random yelling with intermittent giggling. Suffice to say,
there is now scientific proof that being a prophet is more than just
a matter of how high you are. If you happen to find Ovaltine
Goose-Shredder, it is requested that you notify the Ontario
Provincial Police. He didn't kill anyone, that we know, so you can
approach him, maybe, but Piss Awesome Journalism would like to know
where he is, because he was on assignment for us when he went missing
and we are kind of on the hook for it. Any information is
appreciated.
