Actually, his cult has shrunk. By a lot. It's been some popcorn-munching fun as a cult survivor.

    I like the two-prong approach to civil rights. It gives a carrot-and-stick incentive to our oppressors. If you pay attention and give us what we want when we ask nicely, the other wing of the movement won't hunt you down like the vampires you are.

    I was on a sailing ship trying to deliver a very important package. For some reason, a wooden tall ship was the only ship that would work for this specific task.

    There was a talking chicken in the crow's nest named Winona who informed me that she got the job because chickens don't get seasick.

    ... and apparently, according to a chicken-keeper on c/NoStupidQuestions, that's actually quite plausible.
