Top 10 worst Evasion quotes

After suffering the humiliation of sharing a publication with that vile poseur misanthropic wannabe tramp (not to mention boorishly straight edge too) I would like to continue being the thorn in the side of the counter revolutionary lifestylist Politburo that runs the zine by writing a column of best (OK, worst) Evasion quotes. So far, I know of the one about dairy eaters dying from cancer and the one about fire extinguishers and hospitals (both of which have been backed up by lifestylists I spent time round this weekend roll eyes), but are there anymore?? I would also like the exact quotes of the two above (and maybe even sources??), if possible.

Thank you to all my class struggle libertarian communist comrades (and other people who find Evasion funny).

I can't remember the exact quote, but there's one bit where a guy buys him a beer and he says "Yuck" then the narrative goes on about how much cooler straight edge people are than people who drink beer.

Right, and what does a crimthinc drop out need a fire extinguisher for? surely if someone sets their dumpster on fire they can go and get a new one pretty easily.

isn't the one on the back of the evasion book the worst one possible? something about if you're not enjoying being poor, you're not doing it right or some such bollocks.

Yeah alan those are general CrimethInc quotations. We could use this too for Freedom - we got some ace ones here in their paper Harbinger, like gav's one.

Best Evasion quote is when the guy says something like "and at that moment, I knew that my life was the best life that had ever been lived"

Cock.

I love the fact that you say this and then write a column. Haha.

Moreover, Edd told me on Friday that everyone on the Rancid News list would support me dying of cancer. This was all the motivation I needed to continue my participation.

John don't nick my idea!!! I've suggested like 5 Top 10s for Freedom on here, use one of them!!

Shit crimethinc book by a misanthropic punk kid who lived the crimethinc lifestyle for a bit. Its tagline is "Poverty, unemployment, homelessness - if you're not having fun, you're not doing it right!"

How many people have heard of Crimethinc? I think it's a bit obscure for Freedom -- which is supposed to be accessible

[swp]let's all fight the real enemy -- capitalism![/swp]

that's when principles become a pain, just when you want to have a dig at some little known group or theory

Was the thing about fire extinguishers me? I said we hadn't needed to steal ours from the hospital because there were already loads in the building. And I said I agreed it would be fine getting them from schools/hospitals cos they'd replace them as a joke. And I'm not a lifestylist. I don't even have dreadlocks.

I think thora was asking if alan meant her as one of the lifestylists who backed up the quote over the weekend...

Well Thora, you did say that, justifying it by saying that the hospital would quickly replace it and if they didn't, "it'd be a timely lesson". Or something. And I didn't think you were joking since it was said in the same tone as "technology isn't neutral". Are you not serious about that either??

Jeez...there's hope for you yet. wink

OK, I was definitely joking about the hospital and it being a timely lesson. I was not joking about technology not being neutral.

There is no hope for me black bloc

To be honest, I applaud your bravery for taking on such a fearsome foe as a completely un-neutral PC. I mean, all the efforts of the working class over the last 100 years or so against the grinding mundanity of capital pale into insignificance compared to your current exorcism of your demons. roll eyes <3

I didn't actually understand that confused

PC = technology

Technology = un-neutral (ie designed to exploit you)

Ergo, in using something that will apparently inevitably exploit you, you are being very brave.

Of course this is all conditional on primitivism not being a load of bollocks.
