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.

I have a hard time buying the all-chemicals explanation.  I mean, yeah, I take SSRIs and they do something, and if anyone bothered to look they'd find my head was full of neurons and hormones firing away at each other.  But there's more to it than that, because I (and probably you too) can consciously control how you feel at something.  You can read the comics smiling, and force yourself to laugh at the stupid jokes and reread the strips until you find them actually funny.  It's doublethink, but you get the last laugh.

You can train yourself to un-ignore the things your wiring is accustomed to ignoring.  You can alter your responses to events, withholding judgment on an issue where you would normally jerk your knee.  You can ask yourself, now why do I think that? when you see a morbidly obese person and question their intelligence.
Q: How regularly do you hire 8th graders?
A: We have hired a number of FORMER 8th graders.

Welp I guess that's where all that discordianism comes in, huh?



I have a part II coming along, but my mind is constipated right now so it might be a while.  HOLD YOUR BREATH, I NEED THE ATTENTION OK
The Jerk On Bike rolled his eyes and tossed the waffle back over his shoulder--before it struck the ground, a stout, disconcertingly monkey-like dog sprang into the air and snatched it, and began to masticate it--literally--for the sound it made was like a homonculus squatting on the floor muttering "masticate masticate masticate".

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"
