Pastafarian Wins Battle To Wear Colander In License Photo

Posted by samzenpus on from the how-do-you-like-me-now dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Eddie Castillo is the first American to successfully have his government-issued photo identification taken while wearing a colander, though DPS officials are reportedly planning to follow up with Castillo in order to 'rectify' the situation. Others have tried unsuccessfully, and Castillo told KLBK that he was surprised at his victory, which he called a 'political and religious milestone for all atheists everywhere.'" Two years ago Niko Alm won the right to wear a pasta strainer on his head although Austrian authorities required him to obtain a doctor's certificate that he was "psychologically fit" to drive.

    Can't think of a better symbol for atheism than someone wearing a bowl on their head.

      Agnostics do not know whether they are supposed to wear funny hats or not.

      You forgot that not playing tennis is our sport while not collecting stamps is our hobby, both evil.

    Of course he is psychologically fit, the pasta strainer will shield his brain from the orbital mind control lasers.
