That line from the father's song in Mary Poppins, where he's going on about how nothing can go wrong, in Britain in 1910.  That's about the point I realized the boy was gonna die in a trench.

(See I'm just too damn busy to post much or skim the place but I'm bored this afternoon and really enjoyed this thread so thought I'd chip in my 2p)

I lurked here for a month before I posted anything. If you don't get a feel for this place before they attack you, you're dead meat.

Untrue! I came in here without a feel for the place, started posting, and got flamed. Mostly for being a twit, but I held my ground and came out of the whole ordeal with my major organs hardly damaged at all.

I showed up, posted, received little to no flames.
It probably just means I'm a better discordian than you.
That, or I use my secret mod status to eliminate posters that I don't like.

1) You post less, reducing opportunities for asshattery.
2) You tend to be funnier than I am.

There are tons of ways to romance Eris without using a hallucinated godform as a mediator. Sure, occult practices make you feel like you're tapped right into the root of it, but I think that's really only the surface layer of Discordia. (I'm kind of post-occult myself, so take that for what you will.)

anyway, welcome aboard and dive right in!

True enough, I find strange coincidences and vague feelings help as well, but hallucinations can be such vivid fun, although they're often damnably vague.

Ta for the welcome, I'll do my best to overcome my lurking tendencies.

Well I reckon that point 1 will be mainly my tactic, I can't promise anything on pt. 2.

Thanks for the welcome all, I'll lurk around.

p.s. That frigging dancing can has given me the fear, wonderful :)

I was handed a copy by a short, fat, hairy, gay Pagan named Andy who had a crush on me. I read it all in one sitting and laughed myself silly. Been in love with Eris ever since  :D

After years of confused and dispairing confusion, I found myself being preached the ethics of some philosopher, Kant or Aquinas or one of the utilitarianism guys, I forget.
In an instant something clicked, immediately I felt free, enlightened.
I was totally anarchic, and within my own head, apparently things had changed.
I half minded got a Bacon cob, not entirely in control of my actions, (if I ever was).
Some guy was trying to tell me about Nam, I came out of my skull, completely bamboozled him with circular logic and spent an hour talking to a girl about the pros and cons of formulaic vs spontaneous comedy. She was in a bad mood I think, I couldn't really tell, I felt so good.

I went home, and there was the goddess, on my landing, sitting on top of a pile of French-German translation dictionaries. She showed me that I could have my freedom, if I wanted.

What did I do to her?

Ignored her and smiled like a moron.
It was at about that time line belly the slender sat on me and demanded love, so I acted like a evil supergenious for a while.

Eventually the memories of the feeling and the thoughts faded, but they are in here somewhere, just waiting for me to order them a vindaloo.
