NO ONE WILL SURVIVE SCRIPTAGEDDON THURSDAY

Part 3 Of Indeterminate: Slash Fiction Openings That Must Never Be Fulfilled

1) It was a dark and stormy night, and Pat Boone was depressed about the poor fortunes of his close personal and professional friend Bob Dole. As he prepared to cross the Canadian border and leave this undeserving nation forever, around the corner appeared the surviving Sex Pistols, each erect.

2) 1965: low Earth orbit. Edward White, doomed son of Texas, stepped out of his capsule, his tether carefully spooling him out into the void. While he knew that he could see less this way than he had in the capsule, and that in the grand scheme of things he was still just a high-flying sky-man, his eyes were filled with glory and a hope we know to be forlorn. Today would not be as planned, though: in the corner of his restrained, space-drunk vision he could make out a flash of the different, more beige gray his superiors had warned him of. He mentally reminded himself of his space revolver. He was ready for Leonov. He was ready to kill in orbit, or die in it. What he was not ready for was love.

3)Retirement had been good to President Bush. Nobody made him hang around horses any more, and he got to hang around in Kennebunkport as his station in life demanded instead of slumming it with those lazy-eyed Texan fuckers. He didn’t even have to sit down and shut up when Cheney had something foul to say any more. It had been a good day even before his manservant Sowadjec announced the arrival of today’s guest. Cybernetic boy-jockey in tow, Crown Prince Abdul-Aziz entered the room with a warm greeting, still gloriously toned beneath his assless robes after these long seven years. “Tonight you are the House of Saud’s camel,” continued the conservative heir, offering his hand and a greased velvet glove to his New England colleague.

4) Once again, Lee and John were eager with anticipation, sporting a boner and bonah respectively as the limo streamed into view of the warehouse. But today John’s wife and her Greek lover knew how to keep the safe-word unsaid. Little did either know that they had already begun their last tango in Dallas.

[5] “And thanks to my guests, Ollie North and Bay Buchanan. America salutes you. God bless all of you at home.” Another day, another Hannity’s America, another hundred thousand dollars. But as the swarthy hive took down the set for the night, Sean noticed Colonel North wasn’t leaving — and, as Roger Ailes and Rupert Murdoch swaggered in with a gleam in their old, wet eyes, Sean realized his endless fidelity was about to be repaid, his love for the GOP consummated. Tonight the Republican Party would make an honest woman of him.

(6) In a sinister dacha in the Crimea, a man in a particularly cruisy wheelchair snickered openly at his own perfidy with his friends Alger Hiss - codename ALES - and Josef Stalin. “Oy,” said Rosenfeldt, “always with the betraying of America’s doughty Aryan allies.” He squealed with girlish delight as he noticed that Stalin’s balls also had tiny, angry moustaches, and then took out his big queer cigarette holder in order to slosh them around in his stupid mouth.

I’m Glenn Beck / and I’m here to say
The IRA are smuggling drugs in my mouth / On Kolob I will be Jesus’s favorite wife
Bamboo, Obama, connect the dots people / Oh God the Arabs are watching again

“I just want mayonnaise. I don’t want two guys kissing.”

Welcome to Scriptageddon Thursday, where we at It Is *Dancing*!!!! - the only blog brave enough to give you the furtive right-wing man-on-man action you know you want - explore the context behind recent baffling ejaculations.

Today, we offer the following brief dialogue as a gentle clarification of what could possibly have motivated Bill O’Reilly to declare, in response to this commercial, “I just want mayonnaise. I don’t want two guys kissing.”

The scene is the happening, if obscure, ‘Chockfull O’Meat’, an Irish delicatessen in historic Greenwich Village. A balding, splotchy man - PAPA BEAR - enters, affecting a sneer at the soft buzzing of a compact fluorescent bulb.

He makes his unpleasant way through a fairly short line of twenty-somethings, and finally arrives at the counter, where a CLERK with a strong Hibernian brogue colored with an affected lisp waits for his order.

PAPA BEAR. Some clientele you got here. This is the place with the two-dollar sandwiches, right?
CLERK. That offer ends at 6 PM, sunshine. It’s 1.75 for a 6-inch and 2.50 for twelve.
PAPA BEAR, grumbling. Of course. I guess I’ll have a foot-long.
CLERK. Sure. What’ll it be?
PAPA BEAR. Hmm. I’m thinking meatball and hot sausage.
CLERK, cocking eyebrow. O-kay. Is the sandwich all you want, sugar?
PAPA BEAR. What do you got in the way of condiments?
CLERK. All kinds. What do you want?
PAPA BEAR. How’s about a nice fat sweet pickle?
CLERK, coldly. What is this? You gonna ask for some beef on the side, maybe hot rolls?
PAPA BEAR. What? This is outrageous.
CLERK, in a cold whisper. You couldn’t care less that this is the best deli in the village. You’re just here to ogle the pretty young things. I got a reputation to uphold, buddy.
PAPA BEAR. No! They said this was - they said you couldn’t go to the Village and not eat here!
CLERK. Yeah, and they were right. Now, are you going to be buying a sandwich or what?
PAPA BEAR. OK, OK, fine. Large pickle, meatball and hot sausage twelve-inch.
CLERK. That’ll be 3.75.
PAPA BEAR. And slather it with mayo.
CLERK. What?
PAPA BEAR. Up one side of the sausage, down the other. Flopped out a little.
CLERK. What?
PAPA BEAR. You know, so I can lick it off. You’re some kind of liberal, aren’t you? You know how these things work.
CLERK. I warned ye once there’ll be no hawkin’ here! Out with you!
PAPA BEAR. But - but!
CLERK. Out! And get out of my shop!
The CLERK angrily gestures to the door. PAPA BEAR, muttering ‘I just wanted mayonnaise, I don’t want two guys kissing,’ makes his miserable way home, leather pants creaking under his overcoat.
