Eggistential?
Use The Farce By Ron James

Eggistential? Or just an egg? Chapter 1.1
Years ago, before I became (insert whatever you know me as now), I was in the T-shirt screen printing business. I used to write a column for one of the trade magazines. It was a humor column, where I made jokes about our industry and helped fellow screen printers forget, for a moment, that they made their living inhaling toxins and selling underwear.
Now, for all of the years I have been involved in this strange field of “Ufology” (or whatever we are calling it these days,) it occurs to me that there is a serious lack of good old-fashioned humor in the conversation.
Now granted, we are dealing with perhaps the biggest question facing humanity, and it’s hard to crack jokes when you are dodging ruthless attacks on Reddit or being stalked by black SUVs.
And really, it’s hard to laugh when we’re being told that if we don’t make radical changes, space lizards are coming to do unspeakable things.
So you would think that when the opportunity to laugh does present itself, then maybe we can just “crack up” for a minute.
BUT NOOOO.
Can you really look at yourself in the mirror with a serious face as you ponder the finer points of the latest UAP revelations?
“Good morning self.” Your face nods back at you. “We have a lot to think about today. Yesterday, I was still digesting the recent UAP hearings. But today, we have eggs.
“Not just any eggs, but giant 20 foot eggs that no one seems to be able to crack. Oh, and they might have writing on them. And they fly.
“Oh, and your taxpayer dollars are being used to secret them away to contractors like Lockheed Martin. And all of this at the same time you can’t even buy eggs in the store.
Shame on these insidious legacy program fiends.”
If you ARE having this conversation with yourself, one of you may be starting to wonder how this could even be a thing. But here we are.
MUFON’s best video and photo analysts aren’t unanimously buying the flying egg videos. They say the night vision looks fake, the lighting is all wrong, the sling is not the type that would safely carry a giant round object, the list goes on.
What about the latest whistleblowers? Jury’s out. They seem like nice enough people. But let’s not forget, all of these characters who are supposedly rolling out "the truth" are the same folks that “could tell you but they’d have to kill you.”
Do I have time at this point to ponder the seemingly endless barrage of inconclusive information? No, I don’t.
Remember that old TV ad that said, “This is your brain. This your brain on drugs?" That was an egg, too.
