Aarrrgh! You tell them Cap'n! These filthy, lowdown scalliwags don't know what's what. I think they should be getting a faceful of hood and then be shoved of the plank into the briney blue! Avast!

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Illiterati
1. Illiterati 73 up, 45 down
The opposite of the Illuminati, who take pride in their high level of knowledge and learning. An Illiterati takes pride in the fact that they are ignorant and refuse to learn (adjust their paradigm)often to the severe detriment of those around them.
Many examples abound, from the liberal screaming out News Media sound Bites to the clergy who says trust their judgment while molestation lawsuits rain upon them.2. illiterati 3 up, 1 down
Not so secret society of people who seemingly know something about Every subject, but somehow never grasped the basic concepts of the English language.
The illiterati have many 'good ideals' about how to make the world a better place.(http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb163/wompcabal/forum/horrormirth1-1.gif)
So is Sarah Palin the high priestess of the Illiterati? Or maybe it's Michelle Bachmann.

This guy isn't new. It's the Sacramento tard again.
...WHO?
I no remember that d00d...
Wowzer, so you do know me?
I'm sort of by Sactown. I haven't been at this forum for years and years. I was banned for at least five I think. Yes it is I, who was known as the legendarious, notary Benocalypse, high saint of schizophoria, redemption through alcohol, drag princing, and the dark horse of pestylence. I was also one of the only folkers to actually warrant the merit of getting banned from these here Discordian forums, by you guys' pope, the Rad Revered Roger himself. Is that old spagfester still around? Oh, I'll forgive him, for he knows not what he does. I guess I was just too discordant for you guys. So while I was barred from the black iron prison, I just chilled back and contemplated the greater order of the universe. Not without chaos and wonder has been my life though. Last year I finally came close to falling in love, then finally woke up, realizing that the relationship seemed pretty much destined to be, well, Discordian. Fortunately, I was saved in the twinkle of time from the near-fatalistic attraction when I was suddenly abducted by the Sufis. Well, I chose to become sufi, I guess. The sufis believe in getting married before sex. The guy said to me, "The devil doesn't want you to get married." Then he gave me a 'Lord of the Rings' puzzle.
I'm an artist, and I felt I should finally sell my artwork around town. One of the places I was meaning to show it off and try and sell it was at a neat little shop of horrors called "Life Puzzles" (http://www.lifepuzzles.net), located at 203 E. Main Street. It's a 3D puzzle gallery that also displayed some local artists. So, the shopkeeper was going out of business in just two weeks, but he let me display my art freely. We've become pretty good friends over time. He was amazed by my art at first sight, mostly because one of my art pics was an artistic representation of the 'caduceus', the winged staff of Hermes, which is a staff made up of two snakes and two wings. He had just got done carving two similar puzzles for a customer. One was of a bunch of snakes and lizards pieced together-- of reptiles. The other one was of a bunch of different birds pieced together. And he said that while he was carving the reptiles, a lizard showed up on his upstairs balcony. Then while he was carving the birds, a bird flew into his shop. Strange days that. The customer supposed it was the spirit of her dead lover. And so Bryan, the shopkeeper, introduced me to Sufi mysticism. I could definitely feel the higher spiritual infusion of the "zikr", chanting praise to Allah, and one day even signed up for "baya'" which is like a Sufi form of baptism. I went way out there and felt like I was being knighted. The old man said to me at the end of the baya', "Your name is Omar." So now I was a Sufi, and all I had to do was follow the five pillars of Islam: belief in monotheism and that Muhammad is God's messenger, pray five times a day, fast the 40 days of Ramadan every year, give to charity, and make the journey to Mecca. Soon after I made the shahada (confession of Islam), Bryan made the paper as a famous Sufi puzzle maker in town. It said, "He looks like an ordinary guy, but he's actually a Sufi." Boy, what have I gotten wound up in? Am I gay? Why is 'The Full Monty' suddenly playing at the town theatre?
Later on, however, I saw a couple of articles in the paper about the Baha'is. Baha'i is similar to Islam, but also quite unique. The fast is just a couple weeks a year in the spring, and they pray several times a day at any time, fairly freely. That I could see myself living with more loyally, though I still keep with the Sufi ways in some ways, which are very powerful incantations for recommunion with God. And the Baha'i wisdoms made good sense to me as something impeccable. It's one of the first mysticisms I've encountered that wasn't real terribly baffling to my ordinary rational human mind-- really seemed to peace things together for me like it made good sense of everything, and felt exciting and intrigueing to discover more. There's oceans of Baha'i literature. They don't do drugs or sleep around, but they do party well enough. And so I became a Baha'i illuminati, working for the new world order. Unfortunately, Baha'is are still persecuted in this world by some who call themselves Muslims, but the Sufis don't seem too negative about Baha'i. They understand it to be a religion of peace.
Well, that's my little mystery of intrigueingness unraveled anew so far. But don't u suns o' botches worry. I'm not here to stay. No, I don't have time to hate nor care here. With all due respect, PD.com is not my qiblih of choice no more, no ma'am. I was mostly just retarded to waste all that time out here in my twenties, and it was a foibling drunken glitch to show back up here in the first place. It is a crime to waste time, and it's against both my religions to keep drinking. Make that all three. It really isn't healthy for the liver. Maybe just a glass now and then. But maybe I'll come back someday just to show off my puzzling artwork to all you wonderful wigs. Bryan took me on as an apprentice puzzle maker, so I'll have a little product stocked up after some time later.

Evil times of me shitting on one of your most revered saints as he announces engagement to a white woman, except that I pretty much got the shit knocked out of me. I always kind of liked Verthaine before then, but I think he even quit the forums after that. But then, it must have been just a while longer before I finally got exiled after that. How is old V? Did he marry happily ever after? Am I to blame if he didn't? Alimony?

Really, you people are just aweful. The Dok was right-- I shouldn't focus on Doscordianism so much no more. Next thing I know, I'd become just another appendage of Her mighty bowels. And if you really want to learn more about Baha'i and Sufism, you'll learn for yourself, schmuck. Here's some baha'i resources-- http://www.bahai.org, http://www.sacred-texts.com/bhi/index.htm, & http://bahai-library.com. The words of Baha'u'llah are very cool; more like what I'd come to expect from a true holy book. As for Sufism, I became a proud member of the Naqshbandi order. Anybody can take baya' and become a Sufi online at http://www.naqshbandi.org/. Of course, it probably takes a bit more to actually practice Sufism, but just taking the baya' will grant a person spiritual power and protection, even if you never get down to pray your whole life. Both Sufism and Baha'i are outlawed in certain parts of the world by certain branches of fundamentalist Islam, because Baha'i is too different than Islam, and I guess because Sufism is too obscure or radical, delving into the deeper spirituality behind the face of Islam, without necessarily abiding in the form of all its ways, unless they do.
"Sufism is truth without form." -Ibn El-Jalali
And, I've only just begun to make puzzles; I've just made a few puzzles so far as O'Burhan's apprentice puzzler. We can't make any new stock for a while, until we get the new studio up and running. We built a cool little studio in his basement but then he lost his house. Soon enough though, we'll both be making more, and I'll have some more artwork prepared for it. When I finally get all the pics in, I can show you guys the pics of the puzzles I have made so far-- to the 'bring and brag' section. In the mean time, later haters.
Love,
Omar

Both Sufism and Baha'i are outlawed in certain parts of the world by certain branches of fundamentalist Islam, because Baha'i is too different than Islam, and I guess because Sufism is too obscure or radical, delving into the deeper spirituality behind the face of Islam, without necessarily abiding in the form of all its ways, unless they do.
"Sufism is truth without form." -Ibn El-Jalali
And, I've only just begun to make puzzles; I've just made a few puzzles so far as O'Burhan's apprentice puzzler. We can't make any new stock for a while, until we get the new studio up and running. We built a cool little studio in his basement but then he lost his house. Soon enough though, we'll both be making more, and I'll have some more artwork prepared for it. When I finally get all the pics in, I can show you guys the pics of the puzzles I have made so far-- to the 'bring and brag' section. In the mean time, later haters.
Love,
Omar
Jeez, for a guy who's leaving, you sure are around a whole lot. Funny that.

See you might think that your new fairytale book actually promises you more magical powers than Discordianism did.
But in fact, Discordianism promised you WAY MORE magical powers.
But now you're all like, yeah but Discordianism was
tricking me it was all a joke they never had magical powers to give me stupid Discordianisms trying to sell me on their belief system.
So yeah, who knows, good luck with your next thing. If you're
lucky they'll trick you for the rest of your life!

This is probably the best post on this board ever. Except maybe that one about Giggles trying to find out what would fit in his ass.
Dammit I shoulda known it was Ol' Ben the FuckUp.
Real piece o' work is Ben. :lulz:
For some reason, he reminds me of Horab.

Honest.
