Frequently asked questions..

[Triple Zero]

The M&Ms were put in a state of order before you even received the bag.

So you're saying I should put them in a cat, which I place in a box with quantum triggered poison, yeah?

[LMNO]

Yeah, but don't look at it, or you'll ruin everything.

[Elder Iptuous]

Beat you to it.

as in, you asked wtf is going on here already?
so what was the answer?

some threads i pop my head into to take a look-see or say 'HAI GUYS!', but am not willing to actually go back through the pages and catch up.

this is one of those threads.

[Adios]

This is why I hate you all. This was a perfectly good bitch thread and you have all turned it into something useful.

Bastards.

The hate fest was derailed by a noob asking questions about Discordia that we decided to try an answer honestly (up to a point).  That led to Mang's story about the M&Ms.

It's pretty novel actually, having a drive-by n00b to un-derail a thread.

In Discordia all things are possible.

LMNO is confusing me because I'm not seeing any posts by Mang.  Do you mean memy?  Or is Mang now memy?  I are confused.  

Also, to Telarus, wouldn't melting the candies and putting them into a mold be a form of order?  The mold is a specific arrangement of the chocolate, just in a different form.  

[LMNO]

Whoops, my bad.  I meant memy.

Wait....
what are the rails of this thread?!

i never even saw the gelfling tits....  

also RWHN, i've been in a perpetual state of confusion about names around here.
you're not helping, but your inability to speak without pun does.

The arguments ran their course.  There was agreement to disagree.  There are no more merits to continuing that debate at this time.  So let's just move on, shall we?

Huh, where did I speak in pun?  Anyway, I felt like it was time for a change.  I realized I'm in a different head space now compared to when I started out here.  So the name change is symbolic of that.  But as with everything, it could always change back at some point.

I concur.

It was only a matter of time.

There is nothing I could do that wouldn't sound suspiciously like order, and I can come to terms with that. But out of all the things I could do, breaking them made the most sense to me.

When the universe moves forward in time, matter shifts place and shape, and can't be put back into the exact place and shape it was before. Over time systems move towards chaos, breaking down or joining together in various new ways, irreversably, like my candies.

Plus they melt in your hand when they're crushed, if you like that sort of thing.

[Adios]

The only problem I really have with the bag emptying isn't that it's not chaotic. I mean, chaos comes from chaos, order comes from chaos, and all that jazz.

But it could be fixed. The candies could just be rounded up again and put back in the bag for a second toss just like the first.

With my attempt, each toss would feature increasingly altered candies. Not only are they tossed for the universe to arrange, but they are changed by me in the process for the better.

Either way it tastes nice.

The bolded sounds suspiciously like a form of order to me.  

Trying to get your head around where order and disorder start and stop is like chasing your tail.

Seriously, is the seed order, and when it breaks open and the plant grows is this disorder and then again order when the plant is mature? Then disorder as the plant is harvested, then back to order as it is processed?
