HERE'S ANOTHER WHACK

THIS IS THE FIRST CLUE

You did not find it by accident. Eris, the Ancient Greek Goddess of Confusion led you here. She is finally returning to the world after a very long slumber. Eris has hidden more clues for you. To receive her divine revelation, pay attention to the numbers 5 and 23.

A SEASONAL DISORDER

All things follow a five-part pattern. Primal Chaos, Discord, Confusion, Bureaucracy, and Aftermath. Right now, our culture is in Bureaucracy (and in the thrall of the <a href="http://principiadiscordia.com/book/49.php">Curse of Greyface</a>). When we stop taking ourselves so seriously, Eris will lead us, one by one, into Aftermath. Then we'll go skinny dipping!

SANITY ISN'T THE SURVIVAL TRAIT IT USED TO BE

Discordians are lunatic pranksters partying at the fringes of the 21st century. Every Discordian is a pope, capable of receiving and transmitting messages from Eris herself. Discordians treat absurdity, laughter, and playtime as <i>holy sacrament.</i> They are the only things that can deliver us from Bureaucracy.

YOU ARE A POPE

Every man, woman, and child on this earth is already a <a href="http://principiadiscordia.com/book/43.php">Discordian Pope</a>. So please treat them right. Reading this is an initiation into the absurd papacy. You now have cool papal powers like exorcism, speaking in tongues, and the ability to marry people to inanimate objects.

DO UNTO OTHERS BEFORE THEY DO UNTO YOU

If enough of us make our immediate surroundings more cool, inviting, creative, and exciting, eventually there will be an overlap. Life is truly quite absurd, but with a little effort we could make it completely ridiculous.

HAIL ERIS - ALL HAIL DISCORDIA

I might take a crack at this, as long as it's creative commons.

fuck yeah man,
(K) all rites reversed

anything people post ITT can be used as poster or pamphlet material

Today's motivation: I'm going to be putting up posters with QR codes on them which link to a blog post. That blog post should be a really dense intro to Discordjia... so I'm trying to refine the above post until it's super charged. So feedback is requested!
