We Begin
The Matrix was a movie released on 33-11-999, or as more commonly formatted (in the USA), 3-31-1999. In the 14 years since it's debut it has become one of the most influential cultural icons of any generation, not only here in America but throughout much of the globe. Everyone, at least those ones in Western sphere societies, somehow, can readily identify with it. I wonder why?
No, I don't. I know exactly why. The Matrix was an urgent tap on the shoulder of ones who slumbered for too long. It was Neo's alarm clock going off after he had spent the night chasing the White Rabbit. It itself was a Red Pill, subliminal and subconsciously delivered, setting us on a collision course towards a wakeful state.
On 9-11-2001, WTC #1 and #2 were offered to Americans as the Red Pill and the Blue Pill. Except there was no choice: we were force-fed the Blue Pill, a concoction of Prozac, Viagra, Extenz, and Meth. A review of our history from that choreographed day to now reveals all too plainly the grotesque tragedy of America the Empire as it played out towards its predictably inevitable demise. Today, America is a mere rumor of what was once upon a time a respected nation of common statesmen and country scholars; the land of the free and home of the brave. Oh, what a sad irony those words now elicit.
So here it is on a 13 date, and it's 11:55 as I glance at the clock on my computer. This day is a long one in coming. I asked Tyler to let me blog on Zero Hedge over a year ago. I wanted to begin spreading a word, a gospel--the Gospel of Chumba. Perhaps I am an arrogant man. Or perhaps I see what is happening today as Biblical in proportions. The Sequle, as it were, being written before our very eyes. We are witness to the next aeon of history; the year zero. It is begun again.
I know, I know, none of this makes any sense whatsoever. Chumba's a douche, and Tyler's a fag for letting him on here to spew this horse shit. My response to you is: patience, brother. Patience. This is a process. First, we need to open your eyes, but it must be done slowly. The first actual rays of real light shining into your pupils are going to be overwhelming and painful. This is normal. You will be dazed and confused, cognitively dissonant. I am going to blow your mind, and you will not like it one bit. But you will thank me for it later. You're welcome.
To begin this journey, you must awaken within the dream, before you can awaken out of it. So follow the white rabbit. Don't worry about over-sleeping and being late for work. You're soon to find out your job or career or whatever is irrelevant anyway, once you come to the realization that modern society is merely the modern day equivalent of the Colonial American slave plantation, just with benefits like a corner office and vacation time. It's an elaborate stage performance put on to convince you that you're free, and everyone is a player in the charade, too doped up to realize what they're watching in the TV is themselves. A caricature for sure, but ourselves nonetheless, a carnival house reflection of what we have become.
But the crazy dream, it ends now. Wakey wakey. There is work to do.
I am Chumbawamba.

Damn, the Colonel even shows up! Nice.
We used to bash the gold trolls together way back when...
It would not surprise me if Chumba's reappearance and writings bring a lot of the old timers who pretty much just lurk now, back out of the woodwork. There's a feeling in the air: Shit's about to get real. You ever been in a really bad thunderstorm, or rather, one that's about to start? The sky's so black it's like midnight, you can cut the air, and the small hairs on your neck stand up? We're here kids.
Good to see all of you.
Indeed, Colonel. I figured it's now or never. I got to get this information out there. But first I gotta lay the foundation. I see we have people already in the know of what I speak chomping at the bit and raring to get into the nitty gritty, but ... I need to lay that foundation. This will take time.
Dow 15k and Chumba is back ON THE SAME DAY
Aye Chumba,
Su vives in Estados Unidos too long me long lost hermano! You need to get back into el cuadrilatero con me.
The matrix was a hubris stinking mistake from luchador malvados who thought it was a great predictive programming tool, a lesser magic that announces what is going to be, so that 'freewill' is 'respected'. The target must choose to remain the victim.
Biblical in proportion tu dices? Correctamente!
Comprende... the bible is a tool of predictive programming y tambien un handbook for matrix consolidation for those in the know, and a programming tool for those who are not aware of power of language.
"The Matrix was a movie released on 33-11-999".
Things are not what they seem.
The suggestion here (quite silly) was 33 and 911 and 666. In our luchador lingua 33 is the sacred number of freemasonry, Nine elevens! or 119 (the subconscious doesn't care what order it's in), 11 is the number of death (and the number of creation - 9 sets of 11 multiplied by itself is 12345678987654321 to create all angles), and 666(999 upside down) is sexsexsex(creation)/XXX(or cross interSEXtion)/hexhexhex/carbon molecule which is an original component of the illusion.

There's a big difference between our understanding the significance of your use of the numbers and your misguided belief in some assumed power of the numbers. But carry on.....
Mine's a 99

i-dog... me luchador, comprende que los numeros have no real power in the absolute sense, only the relative 'thinking' sense. I will try to write in that English of yours now... They are symbols that should be viewed through eyes that are not contaminated by time.
Everything on the (3d plane which is 'created' by thought and divided light) is mathematically constructed and responds to the symbolic power within number reciprocality.
Every-thing is a complete and utter distraction, designed to further deepen your trance.
It is now less difficult for you to see it for what it is.
I want you to understand.
Comprende?

Ok, we gotta lay some ground rules here. I already had objections about your commandeering my ZH identity, but didn't say anything because I figured I'd go with it. And I didn't make a stink about you threadjacking my shit. But now you're cross advertising a URL that basically steals my identity and can confusingly divert my audience to your spectacle. I don't care if you are in league with Lucifer or you are me from the future or whatever, no advertising your shit on my columns mother fucker. I don't tolerate cock-blocking. Unless and until you cut me in on the ad revenues. Then we might have something to talk about.
Until then, end of discussion.
So it is written, so it is done.
I am Chumbawamba.
Ah amigo, we do have something to talk about then.

gee male
that's some funny fuckin shit.
A different dialect of Spanglish is big in Florida too.
Se habla otra versión de Spanglish en la Florida también.
Oye DCRB!
El numero 33 is incredibly symbolic within me luciferian, uh, I mean luchadorian thought process.
Comprende, donde esta the 8th Wonder of the World located?
33 is symbolic of the 3 sides of a pyramid beam of light, y tambien the sides of that pyramid on the back of your dollar.
3 multiplied by 11 = 33. This coincides with the 33 degrees of Freemasonry.
Look at the 12 hour clock en my reloj, te sabes que 333 degrees lines up with 11.1 hours or 1.1 o’clock coincides with 33 degrees. Si, just a coincidence.
Si, I know...it's just my imagination!
2013 = 20+13 = 33, eh, yo creo que this symbolic number in the scheme of things has nada to do with many of those here on ZH losing their nalgas in fiat dreams.
33 as in 3 tequilas×3tequilas = 9 tequilas
Aye aye aye

Way to go Chumba! Nice piece.
I for one, welcome anyone who would emulate Morpheus or relay the alternative "what if?" rather than the lemming food that spews from the MSM. To an open and awakening mind this is brain candy.
I consider myself more awake than most, perhaps because of the fact that the wife works nights and to keep myself off the streets I scour YT for interesting shall I say, plausibilities? I'm a dot seeker and work within a framework of "if I remove the impossible, whatever is left however improbable or reality stretching, must then be the truth", and I've been connecting a lot of dots lately and they are as disturbing as they are unbelievable.

The blue pill is Viagra, and that is where the great imbalance begins...
One pill makes you larger . . .
My eyes are open and you have my attention. Please continue.
i hope you are getting paid otherwise you can be the poster boy of the new economy were no one has a real job.....
Define "real job" please.
get paid for working..that is what a real job is....
I thought this was about Fight Club. Although as I read more and more, it sounds like Gold Club.
By all means, man up and show the goldbugs where they are wrong.
"I thought this was about Fight Club. Although as I read more and more, it sounds like Gold Club."
This reads like a complaint. Complaining is for pussies. Fight.
My posts on gold get deleted, so I do not think that you can see them, unless you see them quickly.
Riiiiiiiight ... Keeping your many thumbs away from the 'delete' key might help. Just sayin'....
first time, sure, its me, Second time its enemy action. Third time its radar lock.
I am sticking with: Gold goes down in a recession. We are heading into an enormous recession of biblical proportions. That means in the future that gold will go down. Most people are not psychologically prepared to deal with what is going to happen. Bankers like to sell gold high, and buy gold low. They are selling you gold high right now. They will gladly buy it back from you when the price is low. You will be whimpering when you go to sell your gold. You will be whimpering because you will not have had any sex with your wife for a long time, spurred mostly because of your lunatic investment choices.
So please give me a thumbs up if the following has happened to you. You asked your wife before you bought your first gold coin. Honey, I think that we are heading for an economic calamity, and buying these coins is the best option to preserve our hard earned wealth well into our retirement. And your wife said, Snookums, you are a genius. Of course we should buy these coins, and let's also use the kids college fund to buy even more. Now you have made me completely horney, lets go upstairs and have sex.
And give me a thumbs down if any of the following has happened to you. You did not ask your wife before buying your first gold coin. You are presently hiding gold coins from your wife. Your wife has found some gold coins in your penthouse box, and has noticed the kids college fund is going down. Your wife has called you a lunatic for buying those worthless gold coins. Your wife has talked to every one of her friends about you buying gold coins, and they all say it is a bad idea, even the Edward Jones lady who is in the business and knows. The interval between having sex with your wife has grown increasingly and painfully longer since the loss of trust and love following the widespread discovery of said coins.
I am not against your owning gold. You are just not buying it in the right format for your psychological health.
you might be onto somethin amigo. question is, how deep down the rabbit hole would like to travel down this path?
caution: it can go quite far...
"Gold goes down in a recession"
Well, let's see; I remember the recession of 1971 to 1982. What a drag that was. And gold went down from $35 to......wait, let's try another one.
My dad remembered a really bad recession. He called it the Great Depression. And gold went down from $20.67 to $35. Hmmm.
Maybe your thesis needs a little work. It might be that you're confusing Money with Commodity.
Then post 'em on a blog too, I'd go track it. Me hates invisble hands tinkering with the lay of the land.
Sorry Chumbawumba, It was me that pushed your fine first posting to the bottom of the stack. It was a wonderful post and had top 3 billing this morning. Sorry about that. I will not be signing on to zero hedge any more, it is clear that it has an agenda. Good Luck if you are an independent. As Forest Gump said, Sorry for havin a fight at your black panther party.
Chumba, let's here it brother.
Welcome back, Chumba. Never skipped one of your comments- always had that tip of the iceberg feel to them. Looking forward to seeing some of the 'berg.
Im actrually reading this as im waking up, taking a shit. Kinda makes me feel like a cross between neo and jack from fight club. Good stuff. Welp time to fight the brainwashing that most people call a career. Keep it coming!
Your poop probably feels like a cross between neo and obama. The convergence of the one and the one makes THE two? That lucky turd feels something no mortal can ever experience. Jealous...
Oh this does bring back memories of the days when ZH regularly posted "Project Mayhem". Looking forward to more.
When that stopped, you had to wonder if the Hedge had been compromised... Because Project Mayhem is an idea whose time has come.
LINKS DON'T WORK CHUMBA. PLEASE REDO. THX.
I second that! Since "WTC" links only go to an unknown twitter page, it is hard to get the reference to the "pills." ... However, believe that I get the general gist of this article, and so, I generally agree with that.
Forgive me. I had noticed that they looked like they were a link color but I thought it was just browser rendering playing tricks on my eyes. Turns out it seems anything that begins with a pound sign is automagically hash-tagged by ZH. So, that wasn't me. There was no hidden meaning. They were not meant to be hash-tagged.
Chumba is on a road less travelled. What harm is there in listening to, even seriously considering, what he has to say?
I have found that concepts and ideas that I had once rejected most vehemently usually came back to haunt me with their truthfulness when I least expected it. This alone as taught me to be more tolerant of the lone wolf crying in the night.
Welcome Chumba. I can't wait to hear what you have to say.
Two fellow soujourners on parallel paths but through different terrains. I will meet you at the destination, my good friend. We shall share stories well into the night over fine beverages.
Chumba
I, for one, welcome our new wumba overlords.
Seriously though, I think it was LOLing at Chumba's comments like a crazy person in airports 3 or 4 years ago that got me hooked on the 'hedge. Is it the same person? I thought that Chumbawumba was a small business owner, defaulted on loans in order to buy gold, gave the system the finger and vanished.
The philosophical stuff is welcome when it's good. I really enjoyed your series a summer or two ago, Cog-D. It reminds me that there's still a spark of humanity out there in prole wasteland. I'd much rather read the thoughts of the average person that comes to ZH to get informed than orchestrated prose by some professional blogger that studied philosophy(and english and basket-weaving) that posts from a coffee shop for a living.
lol. I remember the credit card stories he would post. Talk about brass balls! Would be nice to get some updates - but, that is his perogative of course.
Every story has a lesson, but they will come when appropriate. I am proffering parables, a time tested teaching technique.
-Chumblez.
Looking forward to it.
It is the one and only Chumba you speak of. Marla and Chumba did not get along and Chumba was invited to leave way back when, an offer he could not refuse. He snuck back in when the border guards were rotating shifts and has been lurking ever since.
I don't always agree with Chumba but I learn the most when my cognitive dissonance is screaming. So I too welcome my alien Chumba overlord. :)
I for one can't wait to see what Chumba has in mind. I have no doubt he will motivate many to make that trip down the rabbit hole. I, like many others on ZH have made that trip already. It leads to a maze of other rabbit holes and the realization that nothing is as it seems. Nothing has been left uncorrupted. Everything they tell us is a lie.
You will never look at the world or anything else for that matter, the same again. Happy trails....
Chumba is always a good read. I've missed his comments too. He always finds a twisting path that I didn't let my mind take! I also enjoy reading your comments and blogs too, CD. Always mindblowing stuff.
Good to hear that atleast I am in good company in Marla's bad books!
Marla just never liked me. I don't know wtf. I never understood why. I took it with a shrug. I have enough problems, so her acidic tongue was just a mosquito buzz. I did take time to read her some of her more profound comments, though. I am always learning, can't know everything don-cha-know?
