Bonnaroo, a Waterpipe, and Dripping Jizz
filed in Kidz Korner! on Jun.14, 2006
I’m leaving for Bonnaroo today, so I’ll be away from The Churning until the middle of next week. I’m sure some of you are surprised to know I’ll be spending several days in the middle of nowhere with limited internet access at a music festival swarming with hippies. I mean, it’s common knowledge that I hate jam bands.
But the thing is, Bonnaroo’s not entirely focused on jam bands. This year, there’s Radiohead, Tom Petty, Elvis Costello, Sonic Youth, Beck, Stephen Malkmus, Cypress Hill, Bright Eyes, Death Cab for Cutie, and comedians like Patton Oswalt, Demetri Martin and Lewis Black. Blah blah blah. I sound like a Bonnaroo shill.
Anyway, Ev’s in charge while I’m away. As you know, he’s been hard at work on The Churning’s newest series: “Kidz’ Korner!“ So with that in mind I leave you with Ev’s latest creation:

This is very disturbing. The kids are creepy. The “teacher” looks like Beaker from The Muppet Show. And drawing on the blackboard, well let’s just hearken back to the graffitti on the “Coming Soon” sign outside JJ’s new townhome.
Tootie drank rootbeer out of her bong. And Natalie filled hers with jellybeans. Think these kids will do the same?

I think the teacher is supposed to be me. The main characters are supposed to look like muppets, so it’s probably good that he looks like beaker.
But the thing that struck me is the strange spot on his shirt. Looks like he’s lactating chocolate milk.
The lesson of the day: If you say “bong” at a headshop, they’ll kick you out.

Yeah, I purposely avoided the stain.

It’s funny “The kids look creepy” is exactly what my wife said when I showed her this.

I think they are extraordinarily creepy.
All we are is just another brick in the wall.

Wow, they have that kind of lineup coming? Sounds almost like the Lalapaloozas of yore. Damn, I bet you’ll have a good time.

The kids look like they’re already high!

You know this would be acceptable as a FNFO submission if you did one as a cartoon of you and Jay posing a flip off Ev.

Wow, I’m really jealous. We just don’t have access to concerts like that in my area. That’s because I live in b-f-e, I suppose.
