I’m going to tell you this right now, chief. Listening to the Beatles will get you killed. I know, I know, it sounds crazy right? But my best friend in high school loved these cats. He had all of their albums and wore the merch. He even cut his hair like one of them (I don’t know their names, but the one with the mustache). Anyway, one night we were all chillin in the basement listening to the White Album and he got a text from an unknown number. The message read simply, “no ur not. Christ is King. <3 MDC”. My buddy’s face went white (he was normally Latinx) and he asked if we were yanking his chain. We genuinely had no idea what he was talking about, but I guess it’s some Latin expression meaning like “are you kidding” (don’t know why he couldn’t just say that). We told him we didn’t send the text and he got really pissed at us and said if we were going to make tasteless jokes he was going to leave and stormed out. That was the last time anyone saw him alive. They found him three weeks later, mostly decomposed and he had two revolver shots through the eyes. They never caught the man. He’s still on the loose. It seems he’s done many many more. He quotes John Milton on the walls in the victims blood. On my buddy’s wall he wrote “his red right hand”. That I’m told is from some song in the movie scream.
I miss him a lot.
