The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that in 2007 64% of high school graduates enrolled in college. For a multitude of reasons I have never been one of their ilk. Yet I’m told that college is a place to broaden one’s horizons; to learn new things and experience things you might not otherwise have experienced in your isolated pre-post-secondary schooling world, a place to question ideals long held as true and expand upon one’s own repertoire of knowledge. A kindergarten for the real world if you will, but with liquor and venereal diseases.

Apparently the hordes of apple-cheeked co-eds fueling this idea are all acting as agents of subversion and deceit; sowing falsehoods throughout society in an attempt to create a society of unquestioning automatons adequately prepared for the endless toil of an office.

Pictured above is a mailer that was sent out from a company called Veer. Is it not beautiful? It is the membership info for The Very Secret Order Of Creative Understanding, whose crest is emblazoned with the visage of the Great Cthulhu. If there are any criticisms to be leveled at this kit it is the fact that the room it is pictured in is not to be found at the Ectomo offices. Yes, you read correctly, Ectomo is not privy to this very secret knowledge! I know, it’s crazy that we, the stewards of Cthulhu Cthursday, have been omitted from the Order’s mailing list! It must have gotten lost in the mail. Yes, that’s it! Some errant postman must have espied our kit and realizing that he was in possession of forbidden knowledge, he kept it. No doubt the miscreant is, at this very moment, partaking in the secrets that are rightfully ours. That BASTARD!

Needless to say he won’t be able to handle it; he just doesn’t know how to parse that kind of information. So, if you see a postman gibbering with a wild look in his eyes let us know, as he no doubt has something that belongs to us. In the meantime we will have to settle for downloading this PDF which includes all the aforementioned documentation.

And to our postman: we will find you and we will come for what is ours, in the night, while you and your children sleep; and it will be unpleasant.
