It is a good story, and definitely helps one understand the society quite a bit better, lol.

Although, what exactly is the line between outright pinealism and discussing some of the more vague and out there aspects of discordianism?

It's kind of like the line between being blunt and being a jerk. Hard to define and even harder to recognize when you're the one pushing it, but other people know when you've stepped over it.

It's the line between liking Monty Python and sharing favorite moments with friends, and interjecting a Monty Python quote into every conversation that you possibly can.

Discussing aspects of "classic" Discordianism is much different than parroting fifty-year-old jokes that weren't very funny to start with.

I like this story.  It has excellent quality and flow.  I am disheartened, though, because my story "The Tale of Chaminade" was posted after this one while remaining oblivious to this work of art.  It's frustrating when you unknowingly post what seems like a mockery to a prior existence.  Regressing to the topic at hand, I thoroughly enjoyed your parable and shall now consider it the origin of Principia Discordia.

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

It doesn't appear to be a mockery, as much as it appears to be so utterly stale and cliche that a story mocking it, and you, was already written.

Because you are a stereotype. There are six people who think just like you on every streetcorner. You are not original, clever, interesting, or mindblowing. All you are is "outlandish", where "outlandish" follows a known and predictable set of rules.

Stop trying so hard.

[Kansai]

Please elaborate on this.  Your saying that my composition, "The Tale of Chaminade", is a common stereotype story that anyone on a streetcorner would write?  If so, then why are you so surprised by spotting it on these forums?  That seems like a contradiction of what you are saying.

Lame troll is lame. Go away, poptart.

[Kansai]

I agree, trolling is lame.  So stop doing it on my posts you hipocrite.

  This is my thread you're trolling. Moron.

Sorry to steal your thunder, then.

Here's one last reply for your post:

If you feel offended by my words or feel that I'm trolling you, then I apologize.  I just don't like people talking trash to me.

You certainly don't have it in you to steal my thunder and I'm not offended. But you responded to honest feedback and criticism of your story by getting defensive and being an insufferable dick, so you're getting it back.

That's just how it goes.
