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.

Not the word itself, but its common usage: Unique

It means "one of a kind." So a thing either is unique, or it is not. There is no such thing as "very unique" or "somewhat unique;" there are no degrees of uniqueness.


This reminded me of the Backyardygins (sp).

Ok apologies, carry on.

Fashionista. I've always hated that word and even more so now due to a T J Maxx commerical.

I wondered where this thread got to!

There was a word, but I forgot it.

Socialism

I hate this word because it no longer means what it did and I'm sick of hearing it.

Good point. I think we can safely dispense with most of the 'ism' words.

"Terrorism"...ie, "things we don't like."
