I was pulling up to the south gate of the base this morning, and the pickup ahead of me had this sticker on its rear window: > [@](#): > > **Jesus is coming > RUE** I’m not entirely sure what the point of the red **E** is, but it’s obvious that **Rue** won’t get the message without my help, seeings as how the truck is here in Jacksonville and **Rue** is off in the suburban wilds of Cincinnati. So, I’ve done my duty and passed it on. And I suggest you might want to tidy the house, **Rue**. After all, Jesus is coming. You don’t want Jesus to think you don’t know how to use a dust rag! ---

Rue should make sure Lucy doesn’t bite Jesus. Rue should also make sure the boys don’t have superhero undies on. Jesus probably thinks he is super enough. ---

I’m glad it’s **Rue** Jesus is coming to visit. My house is a mess, laundry needs doing and there’s porn on my computer. Did Jesus mention a certain time, or is he just gonna pop in whenever? Sounds like **Rue** needs to get busy! ---

There might have been a time mentioned on the sticker, but it was dark and I could only get so close. No suggestions about the red **E**? ---

Or, **FCM** , is this in fact a message **from Rue**? Maybe he’s busy straightening up and wasn’t able to get to the computer. I saw the very same exact message[sub]or at least really, really close cause I don’t really exactly remember[/sub] in _my_ town which isn’t anywhere near _your_ town because if it was we surely would have gotten together by now to drink things and talk about teenage girls. These are definitely things that make you go “hmmmm…” ---

Crap! Wouldn’t you know it? The Son of God is on his way over and the house is a _wreck_! Do you think Jesus will look in the closets? ---

I’m sure Jesus is too polite to go rummaging through your closets and medicine cabinet. And anyway, what would be the point? After all, he knows everything, being God and all. I think you should just make some nice snacks - don’t go expecting him to do the fishes and loaves thing for you - and make some nice conversation. Yeah, he’s God, but he’s also a guy and I’m sure he likes the occasional small talk. ---

nah - when he visits me he just strolls in, grabs a beer from the fridge and plays on my gamecube. he’ll probably be the same at yours. ---

See, that’s why I don’t invite him over. He’s always scamming the beers and insisting it’s “his turn”. ---

There was a code? Huh. I have to go shopping too. If Jesus came over right now, all I could offer him would be water or wine. And the wine would be a “do it yourself” project for the Big Guy. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by ShibbOleth \* > \*\*See, that’s why I don’t invite him over. He’s always scamming the beers and insisting it’s “his turn”. \*\* Its the fact that he turns my controller into wine when he starts losing at Mario Kart which gets on my tits. I wouldn’t mind so much, but its red wine and i have white carpets. ---
