TESTEMONAIL: Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

You got in a fight with EOT.
Obviously, you must be hounded and punished.

DAMN!
I can't stand when people single out the anthropologists and the philosophers!
WATCH OUT PHLEBOTOMISTS!
YOU'RE NEXT!

you said you thought I was an archaeologist in response to Suu's previous post, thought I'd clarify. I've actually done extensive research in the area of worldwide violence and aggression (about two years worth), So when EOT comes in with the "you don't know what you're talking about" schtick, in reality I actually do.

LOL
my current occupation is in archaeology, one of the subfields of anthropology, of which I have my degree in.

I broke a kids jaw in middle school to get my point across once. I'm sure it'll work for you too.
...He's dead now. I had nothing to do with it though.
Of course. *wink, wink, nudge, nudge*
No really, he got drunk off his gourd during summer vacation between 11th and 12th grade and fell off a decommissioned bridge that spans Tampa Bay. When they found his bloated body tangled in mangroves 3 days later with a BAC of 10%, they called it a tragedy.
...Let me recap.
Asshole got his jaw broke in 3 places by my fucking heel in 7th grade for taking my purse.
Asshole rips one of my friends' stuffed animals that she got for her b-day in half in 11th grade, I follow him around campus until he runs like a bitch away from me.
Asshole, at the age of 17, drinks enough to bring his blood alcohol content to fucking 10% and then decides to walk across a bridge that was barricaded off while it was being fixed and falls through a hole into the channel of Tampa Bay at night.
His death was a "tragedy".
No really, I laughed. I laughed so fucking hard my parents made me go to my room.

ummmm....wow......
EOT, about all the bad things i've said about you on here...i uhhhh.....
yeah, justified.
O.M.G.
Yes, GS, I can think for myself.
NONONO
No, GS, I don't buy the 'boogeyman' bullshit like you do. Our government concealed Japan's request for a cease fire, SOLEY to test the bomb, while we firedropped the shit out of civilian cities like Dresden. Do you just watch the history channel for all your info (again, your mastery of lock-step) or do you ever walk out on your own to research things. Oh My God, a world leader had ANY, AT ALL insight into what was going on? Yes, GS, I can look back on historical facts and make informed decisions ON MY OWN. I can also make similar comments on shit like THE MOVE & WACO, because I studied them and I'm not swayed by fear mongers/ empty heads like yourself. Go excavate a dig and crawl under it.
Right, General Stuart IS a really real anthropologist with a really real degree, what's your credentials? Because I'm curious to know.
I've seen the degree diploma. I've seen his textbooks, I've seen papers and articles that he's written. He's done considerable amount of research on firearms and weapons of mass destruction and the effect of weaponry on human behavior and has documentation to PROVE it. I'm sure after he's done laughing himself to sleep tonight he'll be happy to come online tomorrow and share some of his knowledge with you. So be careful with what you assume.
Also, you're sounding like the fool I got into an argument with on another forum who claimed that the works of Fomenko were truth and that all other history textbooks were just fabricated lies by the Catholic Church. I hope you're not that asshole.

Interesting, but I'm not sure how accurate this is. I'm guessing their sample size is not very big.

QuoteI really don't know where to begin. This book injured my sensibilities to the extent that it actually caused physical pain. From the stilted descriptions to the clumsy conjunctions to an overabundance of adjectives that would make Tom Robbins recoil, the author's writing skills are such that they make Dan Brown look like the Samuel Clemens of suspense by comparison. Here, my friends, is a passage from the beginning of the book, and I am not even making this up:
"On his dead sickly pale looking horse, with parts of insides and a skeleton face showing, rides lord Graven who firmly grasps the old black leather straps that have been sewn into the flaps of flesh that over time have peeled back and has been exposed to the elements of speed and the rushing of wind."
This is only the beginning. It gets worse from there... much, much worse. The staggering overuse of passive voice alone would make even a New York Times editor seize up. I am praying, right now, that the author is twelve. This would be sheer genius, coming from a twelve year old who has not yet had the opportunity to learn the most fundamental elements of creative writing. I am also praying that this twelve-year-old goes on to take some college English courses and maybe a writing class or two.
Although the premise of the book was - maybe - kind of promising, I must confess that the wretched prose so bruised my literary aesthetic that I was unable to finish it. I have no doubt that at some point I will, if only for the humor potential. This brings me to why I gave it two stars. Do you remember "My Immortal"? Widely deemed the worst fanfiction, and possibly the worst novel of any kind ever written? Well, for the sheer painful amusement this book has brought me, I had to give it something, as it will live on in my memory forever alongside My Immortal.
