Why I Hate “Brownies”

I got a myspace message today that totally exemplifies why I hate Brownies (AKA Tom Brown Jr. Fanatics).

hi, i envy you…

not because you are urban scout but because you live through your inheritance without a real job soaking up earth skills….

i wouldnt mind trying that inheritance thing out sometime…

but seriously… i like what you are doing… i do think there is a performance art aspect to it though…

i was surprised on your site that in the urban scouts reader… that tom brown jr isnt mentioned…. any reason for that?

there is an element of concern i have for what you are doing though… i wonder… if all of the mocking and upstaging of things doesnt somehow take you further away from a truly spiritual revelation…

?

have you touched the spirit world yet? has your mind qiueted enough to still the waters and get a bigger reflection?

(i believe we all touch it… but do we consciously know when it has happened? is a bigger question)

have you followed your inner vision from a state of stillness to lead you where you are truly needed or lead you to what you need?

these things i speak are true and if you quiet yourself and are pure… and believe…

miracles do happen.

i am very interested in your experiences with:

the sweatlodge…,
vision,
intuition…
lucid dreaming
meditation…
astral projection
spirit encounter

etc…

please dont take my prying questions as harsh criticism… think of it as brainstorming and please do share…

again… i like what you are doing…

we should be friends and talk of urban survival stories…
sincerely,

XXXX

Haha. WOW. Don’t they say the cutest things! Excuse me mr. brownie but… have you touched Jesus? I wrote a few full responses to this message but then I realized, the letter speaks volumes on its own and I have no need to comment.

Show your support and appreciation for Urban Scout

  1. Well, you know, those of us who are more enlightened than you just really wish you to be the best you can be. And you obviously aren’t, because you aren’t as good as us, but you shouldn’t take that as offensive or anything, it’s more like brainstorming about specific ways in which you might suck less. Because we really care about you.

  2. Yes, I did have one significant and propitious encounter with one rather dapper and breezy Jesus Boomero, a fellow overflowing with panache and sporting a tattooed tear [you know what that means]. He spat in the fire, circumsized my heart and tossed me a bright rosey dime. When I asked why he said “for sanitary napkins.” Jesus, the kinda fellow who makes you feel fortunate to receive a sound hoodwinking.

    Seriously, though, Thanks for sharing. I am very interested in your experiences with : wasting time.

  3. i would have tracked him down in real life and then screamed “INHERIT THIS, BITCH” as i scouted his brownie ass.

    not really. i tend to dream big, though. a guy can dream, can’t he? as long as it’s lucid, right?
