. . . as long as I’m on a Jonathan Coulton jag, this is a perfect time to direct you all to Tom Cruise Crazy, especially in light of this madness.
Just be glad it’s him, not you.

That song is hilarious…
Just watched few mins of that Tom Cruise Scientology video.
L. Ron Hubbard was indeed (be it consciously or unconsciously) the greatest snake oil salesman of the 20th century.
good stuff. and an Amen! to CHV
Someone needs to edit that video as a lip-synched music video to “Tom Cruise Crazy”. That would be awesome.
Careful Wil, you’ll not get the role of the witty sidekick in Mission Impossible 4: Beating a Dead 70’s Show
BWAH!
*feels sorry for Katie Holmes*
Secret decoder ring available at http://www.xenu-directory.net/glossary/glossary_a.htm
The essence of what he’s talking about at 4:45 onward is at least partly about Scientology critics (SP = suppressive person), but even earlier he’s talking about “spreading the word” (KSW).
Tom Cruise: “C’mon.. scientology is serious business ok?! Like like like.. it’s serious! It allows you to .. uhm.. read a person right away .. like uhm.. one of those … uhm.. things.. with …uh paper in it … BOOKS.. right lets you read people like a book..
and and and – it allows you to uhm… well i’m sure it can allow you to uhm… like… sorta fullfill your every need — wait no.. that’s not right.. it uhm…and if you’re lucky like me – you can shoot Oprah with lighning out of your eyes like i did… *maniacal laughter*
Fuck *pardon my french* I scored Katie Holmes – leave me alone!!”
The guy’s a nutjob – no doubt!
It always amazes me how someone uses so many words but is saying nothing.
I watched that with a combination of awe and sadness. Awe because he’s such a big “get” for their weird little organization, and sadness because people might actually listen to that and be persuaded. This is further proof that critical reasoning skills MUST be taught in public schools!
Wow. That was messed up. Create his own reality indeed. He’s obviously operating on some other plane.
You know that all these Tom Cruise links are being promoted by the AMPTP to discredit the Universal/WGA deal, right?
I’d shiver, but shivering would be giving in to the terrists.
That was just strange
awww, he’s just upset because that Napolean Dynamite guy is a better actor than him…
great, now I can’t get him out of my closet.
These Tom Cruise videos have a mystereious habit of disappearing from the Net because of his litigous ways. Here’s another source for the video:

That Tom Cruise vid and your post on MST3k had inspired me:
