To see all the bullshit stories/rants/petty grievances of Kieran’s Humor go to https://kieranhumor.com. My little brother was a hippie. He left college and joined the Peace Corp. 30 years later he is an organic fruit farmer in Washington state. All you need is weed, some LSD and that's hippie heaven -- or so I thought. But I was completely fucking wrong.  A few years ago, the wife and I went to "harvest". They used pick their pears before they ripen in the fall, chill them and market them in Seattle all winter long. Used to because climate change, late frosts and smoke from forest fires have reduced their crops over the last 4 years. When they have a crop, brother John and his wife (who owns the farm) call their "friends". There's a few family members, and some fucking Canadians who illegally cross the border to pick fruit (who knew that ever happened). But most of the pickers are members of this fucked-up cult out of Walla Walla, Washington. They claim they went to the same "college" (Whitman). But the Branch Davidians didn't show this kind of loyalty. Most of the Walla Walla cult didn't know John or his wife. They heard about "harvest" through some bullshit alumni newsletter. Then they volunteered to camp out and pick fruit one weekend in September, every year -- for 20 years. If you think this is funny or worth a read, you can tell Kieran's Humor that writing has value.
