Back in my day, we didn't need any fancy safety harnesses to eat a sandwich.

Why is this our top selling piece of merch? What does that say about us as a nation?

Friends of the Bystander —

In summer 2023, Michael Ge**er ran a private masterclass on parody — what it is and how to actually do it. Six weeks of real, practical instruction.

It languished on the hard drive. We've decided it shouldn't stay there.
We're releasing Ge**er on Parody on Patreon, one week at a time. Week One is up now — including the original course handout and video.

Patreon members get full access. Membership starts at $5/month.

Ge**er on Parody by The American Bystander on Patreon. Join The American Bystander's community for exclusive content and updates.

It sounds silly until the day comes when you need a velociraptor at work.
