well yes but we want them to like it for what its worth so if we get them to start disliking it then if they start liking it we at least know they like it for its merits and not just because our marketing skills convinced them its likeable.
Lord Byron: "Those who will not reason, are bigots, those who cannot, are fools, and those who dare not, are slaves."

Nigel saying the wisest words ever uttered: "It's just a suffix."

"The worst forum ever" "The most mediocre forum on the internet" "The dumbest forum on the internet" "The most retarded forum on the internet" "The lamest forum on the internet" "The coolest forum on the internet"

Also, self-deprecation is cool.

Naw, I just think it will be amusing and relatively inoffensive. Also, it will piss off the antifascists, possibly enough for them to open and read the pamphlet.
Unless stated otherwise, feel free to copy or reproduce any text I post anywhere and any way you like. I will never throw a hissy-fit over it, promise.

maybe they should smash a pangolin, because those things are so retarded.

SACRILEGE!!!

Pangolins are for raping, not smashing.
"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."

Amusing. I like the graphic simplicity and the fact that it's black and white.

But we're going to need to start generating our own art at some point. Art that helps explain what a particular writer is saying.

Art for art sake that's relevant to Lollercaust also can be included, but our first priority is black and white illustrations to go with the writing.

Collage, line art, photography, monotone painting, whatever people like to do— it just needs to fit in a space at the largest of 5.25" wide x 8" tall and express the main ideas of a Lollercaust article. You can keep a copyright on it and everything. I'll even post and sign legal forms if people want to make sure (wiff a bullet) that their work cannot be used for any other purposes except in a way they approve of in a particular run of Lollercaust pamphlets.

good point.

we need a list of stuff that's going to be in, then. i would pick one piece that i think i could make a cool drawing for and submit one.

yeah wasn't implying using non original images (i totally agree with the images needing to relate Specificly to each sermon/piece) But external images that are relevant for brainstorming and act as creative juice anti-coagulants.

I'd very much like to contribute graphically, so once the content starts looking (vaguely finalized)  it'd be cool if a sort of table of contents could be posted, so as "graphic contributers" can produce relevant accompanying visuals.

A multiple choice brief if you will.

I feel you barumunk.

I just wanted to be explicit.

I think this might work best if the artists found stuff out of the pool gathered by Cramulus and just jumped on stuff that they like.

But those editorially inclined could help too by making suggestions as to what ought to go in the first pamphlet.

An attack from both angles if you will.

kul, also:

it may be attributable to my laziness, but i also think that part of the reason stuff is rather hard to "organize" is lack of process, and im sure you can note that most of my input in this thread is in that vein. anyway that leads me to propose the following:

how about (teh modz) update the OP with the "proposed" content. so as us plebeians can debate and comment and flame the choices,
what you all think.? it would be an ongoing process. which would allow the majority to know whats happening and how its progressing (if at all).

or just ignore me  :)

If we want actually effective processes, someone has to take on the role of editor and lay out how it's going to work so the rest of us can join in.

I don't feel equal to that task, but I'm an editor at heart and I'd be glad to take up proofreading/editing for pieces that are to be included.

I think LMNO and RWHN have had experience in putting together publications like this.

They also carry some seniority around here so maybe we could light a fire under their ass and get one of them to choose the pieces for the first pamphlet.

Or somebody who's interested.

I'll keep on developing the layouts in the meantime.

Cram listed a bunch of potential pieces at the beginning of this thread.

We just need to narrow it down some.

Protip:  If you think something should be done, DO IT YOURSELF.

Most of use consider the text on this site is Kopyleft (I know TGRR's isn't, though).

I put together the first BIP pamphlet in Word, for fuck's sake.  Syn took it and ran with it from there.

Grab what you like, cobble it together, and present it.  Without a doubt, someone will add to it, make suggestions, host it on their webpage, whatever.

But the person with the passion has to go first.  Don't waste your energy getting someone else to do what you can do yourself.
