Elders?

Just wtf exactly is an "elder"?

There are a couple ways of looking at it.

The first would be age.

You know like "Hey you old fucks!".

Those type of elders...

I was told along time ago that they preferred the term "olders" over "elders".

But too many old fucking folks like to still throw it in your face constantly that they ARE AN "ELDER" as if it is supposed to mean something and as if they require you to worship the fucking ground they walk on.

Now, I will say that I think either are meaningless and pointless.

Sure... respect the older folks.

What I mean is that... do you actually realize some old fucks claim they have been Rainbow since the beginning but in all reality they just started going to the gatherings and popped out of fucking nowhere.

You can always tell when you fucking talk to them!

And this has been going on since I first started attending Rainbow Gatherings and hit the road.

Some of them are very convincing and get better at their lies the longer they go.

But it is not only the old fucks... it also happens with a lot of younger people claiming and making up a similiar bullshit story about how fucking much of a Rainbow they are.

Which gets to the second use of the word "elder".

In this use there is no age involved.

It is all about time, experience, the amount of gatherings, or their fucking Rainbow resumes. 

They LOVE to throw it in your fucking face any chance they get basking in the glory of their own hiholy egos.

I find these shows of fucking egos absolutely hilarious!

Wtf? 

Do you really expect me to idolize or worship your hiholy asses and fucking egos and expect me to treat you differently than any first time Rainbow at their first gathering?

No fucking thank you!

TAKE YOUR FUCKING "ELDERS" SHIT AND SHOVE IT BACK UP YOUR ASS WHERE IT CAME FROM.

And you know how many other mother fuckers are always running around telling everyone they are an "elder" even when they were are nothing close to being one if there was such a thing?

HILARIOUS!

There was a young kid that showed up at Sand Flats after the gathering and while I was up there.

Sat down at our morning wake and bake and coffee circle.

Walking around with a self made can on a strap around his neck like he was fresh out of Nic@Nite's indoctrination.

And also running around yelling WELCOME HOME and WE LOVE YOU at every car that came by that were not Rainbow even... with a few other new timers... including the Reggae Kid who never shut the fuck up yell singing Bob Marley EVERY FUCKING DAY ALL DAY LONG!

Fuck... when they were holding a drum circle which I did not attend and was at least 100 yards away... I could barely hear the damn drums but could hear him yell singing the same fucking Bob Marley songs that he has been repeatedly yell singing all week.

Guess trying to impress people? 

Definitely did not work!

All of us up there were kind of annoyed.

Those psychedelics must have been good at this year's gathering and their indoctrination techniques in full swing!

When the Nic@Nite wannabe kid sat down everyone realized there was something not right and off about him.

He just said it was his first gathering. 

Then started talking nonsense thinking he was trying to impress people which he definitely was not.

Avoiding and giving a run around non stop when people asked him questions.

Heard him later telling someone else that he was an "elder" who's parents were Rainbow and he was born at a gathering?

I was like wtf and walked off.

This kid was nothing but trouble.

In the military they would call what he was doing stolen valor I believe.

Not to mention he was there unprepared expecting others to feed him.

Even knowing he was full of shit it made me think that there can only be so many fucking people that were actually born at a Rainbow Gathering and that they would all be pretty much known because of it.

Wonder what the tally is honestly...

Met a few folk in my time that were legitimately born at a Rainbow gathering but it was very few.

So... yeah.

Elder fucking smelder!

You can hardly believe in anything that comes out of these young kid's mouths that you meet that claim to be Rainbow say anymore.

Me, when I meet new Rainbows, and they ask me about Rainbow... I always say the same thing!

I say with the straightest face" Naw... I have never been to and I won't go to one of those LGBTQ Festivals!"

The looks they get on their face is priceless and they then go into trying to teach me what Rainbow IS and what the gatherings ARE.

My playing stupid sometimes goes on for awhile and even days.

You get to know what someone thinks Rainbow IS and what the gatherings ARE all ABOUT!

LMFAO...

Welcome the fuck to the "elders" home!
