Russian Army Recruiters

F3 has recently been on the front page of the NY Times! I’ve seen several back-and-forth comments on Twitter between F3 supporters and those who think of us as some kind of weirdo cult. The F3 supporters have explained why we do F3. I thought I would add my own thoughts, which I have not seen previously expressed.

We practice essential life skills. Skills you never know when you’ll need, and therefore, must be ready to carry out at any time. Suppose for example, Russian army recruiters are trying to draft you into the Russian Army. You can successfully evade them if you can execute a Jacob’s ladder. Or, you can lose them by climbing over and under railings on sidewalks. Throw in a little Karioke and you’ll be free from those pesky Ruskies. Today at Heartbreak, we practiced these essential life skills.
