What to put on an altar to Eris?!

[muffinmania]

I've found a lovely little spot around me that'd be perfect for a semi-public altar for Eris. I'm a little stuck on what might be useful to put up on it.  So far, I know I'll be putting a cheaply bound copy of the Principia, an empty box for a DVD of midget porn, a plastic apple painted gold, some gold candles, and as many Pope cards as I have the patience to print out.

What would YOU put on this altar?

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Nothing.  You do not attract Eris's attention unless you are brain damaged.

[Trivial]

Half a deck of cards and a candle with a wick on both ends.

The golden apple was used to mock vain gods... why do people insist on using that symbol for Eris?

Just give me back my heirloom candelabra and you won't have to go through this again, lottery boy.  Keep the military regalia, if you please.

[LMNO]

Bandages.

I already suggested Pope Cards and random (legal) goodies for free on Facebook.

Historical eris was a deity noted for riding shotgun in aries' chariot, shrieking in laughter while riding through knee-deep blood. As enyo, she was responsible for razing cities to dust, burning whole populations alive, and generally fucking things up.
she was hardly worshipped; only the thracians (iirc) had a cult for her, and thats because they loved going to war.

So what to put on an altar to eris? Blood. Blood of people youve killed for personal gain. Ashes of the villiages youve put to the sword and burned to the ground. Weapons...because why not? And salt. Salt was expensive to ancients, and its as good a thing as any for a goddess who delights in salting the earth and making sure whole populations rue the day they discovered agriculture.

I cant fathom what eris would do with midget porn or that other junk. Shes not some goddess of hippydom and slapstick...shes the madder and orgiastic aspects of aries but with a vagina and more passive-aggressive.

Dude, have you not READ 30 Days of Eris? No. We don't build altars or shrines to that bitch, are you CRAZY?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I prayed to Eris once.

ONCE.

I mean, do what you want, it's your skin.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

One must be very sure to pray to Eris.

Then, that person must promptly be committed for the good of the species.

I mean shit. People only joke about worshipping Cthulhu. Erisians are actually insane enough to not only do it, but trade tentacles for tits, like the outcome is somehow going to be better.
