Cube Spirit Tarot

This is waaaaay out there, but just for fun I'm thinking of doing a Time Cube (http://www.timecube.com) themed deck. The cards will all be renamed to reflect Time Cube principles, and each card will have a short quote from Dr. Gene Ray himself at the bottom.

Here's what I have so far--names and quotes for each of the trumps (A word of warning to Time Cube virgins: Dr. Ray is a kook and is not very politically correct. Please don't take offense at any of the quotes!):

0. The Educated Stupid Ass [Fool]: "It is best to be uneducated and Wise, than educated with Lies. You are an educated stupid ass."

1. The Professor [Magician]: "How can you trust stupid professors who lie to you?"

2. The Bible [High Priestess]: "Time Cube debunks evil bible. Burn bible to save humanity."

3. The Clintons [Empress]: "Clintons have a sun-up. Jesus has a sun-down."

4. The Indian President [Emperor]: "Can an Indian be president? Where are Indian newsasters?"

4+1. The Wisest Human [Hierophant]: "Gene is The Greatest Thinker and Wisest Human."

4+2. The Crapshoot [Lovers]: "Life is a 'Crapshoot' - with a femininity cube and a masculinity cube."

4+3. The Path to Cannibalism [Chariot]: "Every academic professor and teacher ignorant of the Time Cube Principle, is stupid, evil and unworthy of life on Earth, for they lead humanity down a path ending with cannibalism."

4+4. Harmonic Symmetry [Justice]: "Can you comprehend what harmonic symmetry demands?"

4+4+1. The Self [Hermit]: "Self is lowest humanity form... YOU can't procreate alone."

4+4+2. The Clock Face [Wheel of Fortune]: "All clock faces are wrong."

4+4+3. Nature [Strength]: "Nature constitutes the reservoir for human spirit. Ever notice how Nature returns when humans leave?"

3*4. The Hanged Teacher [Hanged Man]: "Evil men ignore Time Cube. Teachers ignore Time Cube. Teachers deserve a hanging."

(3*4)+1. The Vertical Earth Axis [Death]: "Sum-up the axis tilt of those 4 simultaneous years and divide by 4 to discover a perfectly vertical Earth axis which represents the perfection of death."

(3*4)+2. Racial Slop [Temperance]: "Isn't integration racial slop? There are 4 Worlds for 4 races, but only 1 World is racial slop."

(3*4)+3. Word [Devil]: "Humans are enslaved by word, the most efficient mind control. Shackles & whips are obsolete."

4*4. The Tower of Babble [Tower]: "Universities equate doomed Towers of Babble."

(4*4)+1. Nuclear Waste [Star]: "Evil educators teach dumb students how to profit from plunder of Earth and to create deadly nuclear waste that will poison the children's water and destroy humanity."

(4*4)+2. Talking Dog [Moon]: "Talking dog could enslave humanity."

(4*4)+3. The Four-Leg Horse [Sun]: "A 1 day Earth = 1 leg horse. A 4 day Earth = 4 leg horse."

4*(4+1). Armageddon [Judgment]: "Word brings a Babel curse. Get ready for armageddon."

(4+3)*3. The Cube Spirit [World]: "'Cube Spirit' is Almighty."

Well there are parodies & then there are parodies. This one might be too much of an in joke for others to understand. I've never heard of Dr. Ray & sort of feel it's too far into the sarcasm to be funny to most.

But that's just my opinion. It lost me on #4.

You're probably right, HudsonGray. You have to be familiar with tarot and Time Cube to get most of the references, and there just aren't too many people of that description around.

:sigh:

yep. read the TimeCube website, and came away even less-educated than before. this is one serious in-joke... inner even than Bob Dobbs.
how exactly this relates to Tarot...? Don't know. Can barely use adjectives now. I'll see if I can come up with anything when my head stops spinning.
