Yes Indeedy

A quick review of this bumper graffiti begs the immediate question: do the freaks really require such blessing? This commuter reveals their hand but we aren't as convinced. As with many American idioms, this expressions seems to be less a plea and more a statement.

And why not? Without freaks, the world would never have had the grunge movement or heavy metal music, the goth lifestyle, curious amounts and types of smoking in high school as well as all night raves. Then again, without techno freaks, Apple would cease to put out a new iPhone seven times a year.

Still we ask, does God in fact bless the freaks, either at all or in greater abundance than the evil non-freaks? It seems the freaks inevitably mellow into middle aged parents and professionals. In that case: God bless us, every one.
