Subway Scientologists Get Punk’d!

Subway Scientologists Get Punk’d!

Subway_scientologists

this feature from from College Humor is awesome… for all New Yorker’s who’ve wanted to do this but never had the guts, Lauren Frey steps up and punks the subway Scientologists!

I walked right up to one of the Scientologists and asked if I could have a copy of Diuretics. Granted, this was not mature. But it was fun.
“Dianetics,” the Scientologist corrected me, totally unfazed.
“No, Diuretics, the book over there on that table.” I pointed. “Is it about nutrition? My doctor told me to drink less coffee.”
“Our book is called Dianetics. But your doctor was right to tell you that. Caffeine can kill.”
“I know. I killed my cat with No Doz.” Which was not true. I don’t have a cat.

more from a reporter angle but equally entertaining, HBomb’s Flickr report on his mission to undergo the subway “stress test”… “Oh, and the results of my “free stress test?” Well, let’s just say that there was nothing wrong that couldn’t be fixed with a voluntary donation to the “Church” of Scientology in exchange for one of the helpful books that this man had to offer.” more here.
