The Insane Clown Posse Reveal Their True Mission

[Rick in Salt Lake]

No, their mission is not to suck in bold and new ways. It is to turn people over to Christ.

Does this mean they suck more or less? Discuss...

[cavorting with nudists]

Well, neither.  Because they couldn't possibly suck any more than they did, and they certainly don't suck less.

They are, however, still funny when they're not trying to be:

"A giraffe is a fucking miracle. It has a dinosaur-like neck. It's yellow. Yeah, technically an elephant is not a miracle. Technically. They've been here for hundreds of years…"

This is old news about the ICP.

and Christ said "drink this Faygo, for it is my blood ..."

... "The Black Cherry Faygo, specifically...No, my ninja, not the Key Lime Pie Faygo. No! The Black Cherry Faygo -- there you go. The Black Cherry. That's my blood, ninja ...
NO, not the Champagne Kola Faygo, bitch! What the fuk u doin? I'm trying to get transubstantiated all up in this bitch! Damn!!"

This is old news about the ICP.

My thought exactly -- I saw an article outing ICP at least four years ago. If only I could remember where.

I assumed their religious beliefs were common knowledge among their fans.

Maybe they're talking about it to the press again in hopes that someone will give a shit this time.

To paraphrase something Doug Stanhope said, No one fights alligators without an audience.

[Corman]

ICP actually outed themselves, on their 7th "Joker's Card" album. Yes, I was a fan at one point during my teenage years, mainly because I thought they were a hilarious, Spinal Tap-esque parody of awful hip-hop. It quickly lost its appeal when I realized they weren't joking, and started listening to actual hip-hop in my late teens.

No?

No one fights alligators without an audience.

No?

On purpose, maybe I should add.

Outside of Florida, I think she meant to add.

You might've seen the Guardian article already (http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2010/oct/09/insane-clown-posse-christians-god):

"I figured most people would say, 'Wow, I didn't know Insane Clown Posse could be deep like that.' But instead it's, 'ICP said a giraffe is a miracle. Ha ha ha! What a bunch of idiots.'" He pauses, then adds defiantly, "A giraffe is a fucking miracle. It has a dinosaur-like neck. It's yellow. Yeah, technically an elephant is not a miracle. Technically. They've been here for hundreds of years…"

"Thousands," murmurs Shaggy.

"Have you ever stood next to an elephant, my friend?" asks Violent J. "A fucking elephant is a miracle. If people can't see a fucking miracle in a fucking elephant, then life must suck for them, because an elephant is a fucking miracle. So is a giraffe."
