Completely ridiculous, but I like it anyway. Wait, no, that's precisely WHY I like it.

And I go off, oh you bet I do.  I recently went off on a buncha drunk PTA moms, and all they did was teehee and murmur "well, there you go, you got Jenne started again!" and so I stfu.  *shrug*  Let the bitches simmer in their own juices then.

What the fuck do I care, anyway?

There's another rant in here somewhere. I'd write it, but I haven't had nearly enough experiences of this sort.

it's a play-on-words on HIPAA Compliancy. 

It basically is about hospitals and similar insititutions keeping sensitive, identifying records safe. 

And it also serves the important purpose of making it annoyingly difficult for doctors to get the information they need on patients, right?

I think his bullying tactics and threats are wonderful, just the way they are.

At Mangrove's advice,
I'm reading Chicken Qabalah
by Lon Milo Duquette



I'd tried to read up on Qabalah about a half dozen times prior to this. This is the first writer I've come across that's explained in a way which doesn't make me want to reach through the book and punch him in the vau.




ETA: right in the zain? right in the samekh? right in the ayin?

there's too many letters which might be a cock.

ITT, Cram learns the secret of all Hebrew symbolism.

Im looking forward to reading some more posts tonight. I will be an active member of this forum or as long as I feel like it and if you look around I have said a few nice things that you are probably unaware of. Im not who you think I am. Everytme you try to negate me I will defend myself simply to spite you.


1. Good, lurk moar.

2. We all fully expect you to be an active member of the forum as long as you feel like it. That's pretty much how things roll here, except in the most extreme cases. You are free to continue making valuable contributions ( :lulz: ), and we are free to inform you that what you are telling us may be outdated, already done, or just plain stupid. Yeah, freedom is a bitch like that, even on the internet.

3. Saying a few nice things is helpful and usually a good idea, but it is not proof against criticism. The halo effect does not apply to forum posts, especially not here.

4. If you're not who we think you are, then whose fault is that, dipshit? There is one single person who is responsible for how you are represented and how you appear to us. You could pull out the "If you really knew me as a person, you'd think better of me" argument, but that's dumb for two reasons. First, it might not be true. Second, be very careful about suggesting that people on the internet get to know more about you, as they just might take you up on that.

5. If you didn't defend yourself, we'd think you were a spineless moron who isn't very good at bragging or being self-deprecating. And we'd continue to mock you. We'll mock you anyway, but at least it'll be worth it for everyone involved if you have some guts.

Posting on the 23rd page of any thread on a Discordian board :kingmeh:

This thread sucks. It's basically just Goat-boy flinging his e-penis around and declaring gay anyone who says anything about it.

Sweet.

I wonder if a mental disorder has ever been ridiculed out of the DSM-4...

Well, I'm gonna FIND OUT!

And if the answer is "No," then I think our work is cut out for us.

Also, really, what Ratatosk said.

To do some parroting of my own, I read once something along the lines of, "Each enlightenment is only good one time, for the person who discovers it". In a way, I think that's really another way of phrasing "think for yourself, Schmuck". Either way, it really stuck with me, and I personally find it a great reminder that what seems profound and important to me may be meaningless for others, and that's ok.

Anyway, I think that if someone finds their own enlightenment in dissemination of information, that's great. On the other hand, if I find myself associated with a group who puts a lot of energy into spreading the word of Discordianism, I will probably not be comfortable with that, and will end the association.

After all, the only thing Seventh-Day Adventists are doing when they go door to door is "informing people of their options".

No they're not.

Thats bullshit and you know it.

Because anyone with half a brain knows Seventh Day Adventists exist.  They know they're there, and that what they may not be sure of what they believe, that they can find out easily.

CLUEPHONE RINGING: most people have never even heard of Discordianism!

Shocking, I know.  But since Discordians are so geographically disparate and so unknown, a campaign to let people know that Discordianism actually exists might actually draw the interest of people who want to know more.

OH MA LAWD!  IS DAT SUM BRAINWASHING?

Your bullshit comparisons don't hold up, because you're comparing radical different groups and ideas.  The average person does not know what a Discordian is, and does not know what they believe.  In such a situation, letting people know Discordianism exists is nothing like what other religious groups do, and find the implication of such an insult.

I think Cain has a good point here. We may underestimate just how "fringe" Discordianism really is.

RAH!

While I disagree with some of the specific statements, I clearly understand the feeling behind it.

TI:  :lulz: :lulz: :lulz:

What the hell can you "learn" about Discordia anyway?

I thought you learned from it.

If you're trying to learn about it, you're probably doing it wrong.

Kind of like trying to examine what font the menu is written in, eh?
