The Four Horsemen, Explained -by emer b.
Saturday, October 28th, 2006We just happened to be seatmates since first year. That’s just about it. It was due to massive dumb luck that we’re together. What a fucking poor excuse for a barkada.
That and the fact that we share a common thread of horribly-timed, ball-busting, soul-wrenching and at the same time ridiculously funny (upon hindsight) episodes of rejection.
What a bunch of losers.
Oh and the Four Horsemen thing. That was because of Florin Hilbay. During Consti class he mentioned something about there being a Four Horsemen of the U.S. Supreme Court, who would always vote as a block. These Four Horsemen never had to worry about girls, because they were studs. And they were justices of the U.S. Supreme Court, for crying out loud.
But it seemed cool and we adopted the name because it was so damn ironic.
Christian is ever the pacifist ("Relax!"), cool as a cucumber and best evidence against the stereotype of the war-freak frat guy, is War.
Julz, rich as a medium-scale municipality and yet overwhelmingly generous, is Famine.
Remir is a such a joy to be with, and you always want him to be in your party. He is Pestilence.
Jon is Jon. It’s not in the revelation, but we’re too scared of him to raise that point. So he’s a force of the Apocalypse all to himself.
And then there is Death.
Yes, I noticed that there are actually five of us. That is because together we are a fist, and everyone has five fingers on each fist, unless they don’t. Ah hell, I give up. This is so retarded.
