Or Kill Me / The very best sheep.
May 05, 2012, 08:26:32 PM
It's like a ship, you see? On the maiden voyage, it's pristine. Beautiful. Fast, very fast. Just like a child, but  more seaworthy. Because children are the same. They are born, and grow into their own as powerful difference engines. They have so much potential, so much promise. But like our friend the ship, they attract refuse. Barnacles. Decay and cancerous growth begins to plague the form. And as the years pass, it's more garbage than person. Or ship.

But where the ship eventually sinks, and is retaken with dignity, there is no such recompense for humanity. They become one giant barnacle, spewing oatmeal everywhere. OATMEAL. IT'S ALL FUCKING OATMEAL. WHAT THEY EAT. WHAT THEY SAY. WHAT THEY THINK. WHAT THEY DREAM. Tasteless, boring, unappealing, grotesque, lazy filth that consistently spews from one barnacle's maw into another. The same garbage is recycled, and fed to them again. THEY ARE EATING THEIR OWN WASTE GODDAMN IT. AND THEY LOVE IT. THEY REVEL IN THEIR WASTE. THEY LOVE CONFORMING TO THE IDEAS, THE MEMES, SUCH FILTHY VIRII. These pitiful creatures are so fearful, terrified of their environment, of HAVING TO THINK ON THEIR OWN, WITH NO THOUGHTFORM TO SUPPORT THEM. FREE OF OUTSIDE PORRIDGE AND BARNACLES, THEY ARE HORRIFIED TO STAND ON THEIR OWN. They cower. They hide.

And boy are these people proud.

"classy. classy classy. klassy. CLASSSY. WE HAVE CLASS. ILY. YOLO."

CLASS? IS THAT WHAT YOU HAVE YOU DEGENERATE FILTH? THE ONLY CLASS YOU ARE A PART OF IS A TAXONOMY OF SCUM, SO LOW AS TO BE A CONSISTENT DRAW ON THE REST OF HUMANITY. You, merely by existing, have made all other members of you species worse-off. You plague us, you steal our food, you steal our friends, you steal our safety. BECAUSE THERE IS NO SAFETY, NO HIDING FROM YOUR DAMN OATMEAL. YOU THROW IT IN OUR FACE. YOU SPEW IT UP AND DOWN OUR FORMS, UNTIL WE ARE DRIPPING WITH YOUR GRUEL. YOU TRY TO INFECT US WITH SUCH FILTH. AND THE WORST PART
THE GODDAMN WORST PART IS THAT IT'S WORKING. BECAUSE YOU ARE LEGION, AND WE ARE FEW. AND WHEN WE ARE WEAK, WHEN WE ARE BROKEN, THAT IS WHEN YOU POUNCE. INJECT US WITH POISON AND SELL US A CURE. WE NEED IT.

Until you got here, we were broken, fragile girls and boys. And we still are. But how long until you infect me? Have you infected me? You probably have, and it was very sweet of you. You see, I'm just a higher level of barnacle, equipped with upgraded oatmeal (it has salt!) and doing my own infections. And there comes a time at the end of every day, where I just get fed up, in my OATMEAL. In your OATMEAL. In our OATMEAL.

And I just wonder, what is the fucking point? To serve as a vector for nothing more than a higher level of oatmeal?

IT'S ALL FUCKING OATMEAL.

I'm not saying it's a good movie. Hell, I'm not saying it's bad either. I happen to like it, but I don't really care if you do. What I'm interested in is,

The symbolism.

I saw the movie when I was a kid, and it was pretty cool with the guns and John Woo magic, and then I went on with my life.

And then I got woken up from The Machineā„¢
And then I watched the movie again.

What came through the second viewing was not an action movie, but a metaphor for the GASM's, and the good fight in general.

Redpill, Machine, all that and more. The movie is now not an action treat for me, but a symbolic piece, a representative of "real" life, more true to it than most viewers could ever dream.

Does anyone else see this?

I could be just insane. Well, I am insane.

But, are you insane with me?

I thought about some things today during lunch. This is what I came up with. And, I'm sure this has some sort of game theory parallel, but I don't know game theory, so stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

For the purpose of this experiment, the nondescript person can only eat one sandwich. Also, the nondescript person's happiness level is 0 until otherwise stated.

A nondescript person is eating lunch at a nondescript place.

Said nondescript person obtains a sandwich to eat.

If, after trying the sandwich, the sandwich is Tasty, said nondescript person will eat and enjoy the sandwich, bringing his happiness level to 1.

If, after trying the sandwich, the sandwich is not Tasty, the nondescript person will go get another sandwich, presumably until finding a Tasty sandwich, bringing his happiness level to 1.

If, after trying the sandwich, the sandwich is Mediocre, the nondescript person will continue eating the sandwich, bringing his happiness level to 0.5. The sandwich is not bad enough to warrant getting another sandwich, but not good enough to get maximum happiness density-per-sandwich.

---

So, I suppose what this system shows, mediocrity is the least efficient option. Settling, is the least efficient option.

I don't know. This idea seems half-baked, but right now, with homework pending, it'll just have to remain in the oven.

I'm new to this forum and whatnot, so forgive me if I am reiterating a dead thread, but why isn't BIP published yet? I understand that shit costs money, and time, and actually finding a publisher crazy enough to do it, but has anyone tried?

Propaganda Depository / Discordian Food Menu
February 08, 2011, 05:54:28 AM
I had the idea for a Discordian food menu. Easy to print off beforehand, fold and whatnot, then slip into your nearest restaurant for giggles. I don't have editor at the moment, but that should change, so for now I'm just posting the idea. Get on with it.

Do you have something to say about the whole chaos magic deal?
