Beware the dreaded herd. You ever noise up a bunch of cows what had just given birth recently before? You scare them enough to try and kill you.

SRSLY - make them fear something anonymous. Make them fear the idea of you. Then you could be anywhere - it spreads like wildfire ... false positives are identified ... massive lulz on CNN. You ever hear of satanic ritual abuse of children on the orkney isles?

I want to be martyred.
It's my new favorite cause of death (used to be suicide).

I want to be crushed by the Swedish bikini team.

Monty Python reference in 5...4...3...

Sorry, the only one that came to my head was, "A SPANKING! A SPANKING!"

Fuck I haven't seen that one in a while...and I'm assuming it has nothing to do with Mr. Creosote.

One: People aren't wearing enough hats.
Two: Matter is energy.



...I so lose.  :sad:

Brought a tear to my eye. If anyone ever wants a good Discordian motivational speechifying rant/sermon, there it is.

This made me think of the hilarious "bomb scare" here in Boston recently. I've always loved guerilla tactics (no matter what they're for - revolution, marketing, art, whatever!) and that was so funny I was laughing for a solid five minutes the first time I saw one of the "bombs". During that afternoon I was doing my best to reinforce the paranoia (all too easy - even though who the hell cares about blowing up Boston? Yankees fans? Someone that didn't get into Harvard? Hah!) and the ensuing idiocy was the icing on the cake.

Believe the bullshit and you become it (and it becomes you). Play with it, laugh at it, toy with it, and it's the best tool you have to do whatever the hell you want  :evil:
People of the United States! We are Unitarian Jihad! We can strike without warning. Pockets of reasonableness and harmony will appear as if from nowhere! Nice people will run the government again! There will be coffee and cookies in the Gandhi Room after the revolution.

Arguing with a Unitarian Universalist is like mud wrestling a pig. Pretty soon you realize the pig likes it.

Forget what, again?

I approve this rant, btw. 

It's nice to remember that living in a storage unit, waking up at five to break out of it, and going to the gym before work is really FOR something other than meeting LG this summer.

Well, both of those certainly beat the canned salmon.
