On June 5th, a gaggle of brave Noisebridgers plastered their skin in face paint and headed to the nearby Insane Clown Posse show to teach science to Juggalos (fans of ICP). Armed with lab coats and poster-boards, these clown scientists were set to explain the science behind butterflies, Faygo, and, of course, motherfucking magnets. By several accounts, the Noisebridge members were actually getting along with the Juggalo crowd as they waited outside of the venue, up until a few members of ICP’s roadcrew came out and said the band was none to happy about anyone trying to teach science to their fans. SFSlim tweeted that the group was physically threatened by ICP’s crew and Violent J, one half of the Insane Clown Posse, even bragged about it on his twitterhole. A clown with no sense of humor… who’d a thunk it?

It's okay, the magnets probably weren't ripe enough to explain anyways.

Didn't they come out as evangelical christians awhile ago? And that their whole act is a facade (even more so then is obvious, they weren't even faking faking what people thought they were faking...layers and layers, ponderous man, fucking ponderous. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ssrj-taPkaU [warning, would involve listening to them])
-
The only major youth gang (the guns and raping type gang) in the county area where I live is apparently "inspired" by the Insane Clown Posse.
I say this because it's marginally related to the topic and I otherwise have no opinion.

Layers upon layers is right!
ICP is a rich tapestry of meaning.

I refuse to believe you
I refuse to believe that a gang would decide that emulating the ICP is in fact, a thing they should do.
I refuse to believe that somewhere in this world, hardened violent criminals actually decided that putting on white face paint as an homage to two fat white guys who rap about horror movies would in fact improve their street cred or do anything but get them laughed at on the street.

Ross knows how the Cognitive-D goes down.
In related news, Cognitive-D is my new rap name.

I wouldn't say "harden criminals" so much as asshole kids who're too stupid by half. My fiance worked in the Juvenile Justice Department until recent budget cuts so most of my information is second hand from her.
I'm trying to find a more recent article:

In my experience in dealing with Juggaloes, I found it best to start with some witty comments about their mothers by using face+putdown and if that fails tell them a bunch of drugs spilled out into the street. Works every time.

Would you prefer it if a gang based themselves off those face-paint wearing baseball guys from The Warriors?

What gets to me is that people are taking this so seriously. The very first sentance in the song "Miracles" is "I have a theory, what if everything we knew was magic?"
It's a song promoting using your immagination. Not to mention that it's sang by clowns. I can see some people getting mad that it's promoting ignorance, but complaining about a song about immagination on a roleplaying forum seems a little hypocritical at best.
-
The Baseball Furies will wreck your shit but me and mine throw in for the Saracens. All-City mother fuckers.
-
Eh, the Baseball Furies sucked, better to throw in with The Chief from Where in the World is Carmen San Diego who ran the gang radio station.
She controls the airwaves and runs an international spy agency, information is power.

Because the first line of the song doesn't explain the vehemence against scientific thought that the rest of the song portrays. Also, many of us in the role playing community are big believers in science over the imagination any day.

I remember playing many an hour of that before recording RPPR sessions.

Throwin' bricks and bottles at a guy in a wheel chair was fun. Wasn't easy either, that guy shot me like seven or eight times.

Yeah...loved the movie, the video game was great too. I did the Cyrus speach for a monologue in drama class many moons ago. Even had a classmate yell out "bang!" at the end and dropped dead on stage.

I would pay 20 bucks for a Steam version of the warriors with multiplayer enabled - I loved the versus mode where you throw people off of the roof of a building - and you could custom build a gang of hobos and winos. Virtual bum fights.

In the Penny-arcade Game, you can beat up hobos, and thats what made the game worth it. and trade piss to a hobo.
