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.

Me and my brother were sitting watching TV and flicking through the music channels, when we saw this tv ad:

Quite sobering, if ultimately impotent. Just as we were saying that it would probably do no good, this second ad came on.

Surely there is something not quite right about this. Unless it was a very cleverly constructed artistic statement, allowed on only in the early hours when those who would understand the clash would be at their most lucid.

Or they're thick as fuck. But that can't be right...

The yt;dw summary - government sponsored ad encouraging kids not to carry knives, followed by a ninja movie trailer with lots of flashing blades, etc.

While its possible the person responsible for scheduling the adverts was having a laugh, I think it's more likely just a coincidence.

"I just want to get some chicken, or whatever, and just chill out."

Stereotypes, much?  :?

"If I owned Goodwill, no charity worker would feel safe.  I would sit in my office behind a massive pile of cocaine, racking my pistol's slide every time the cleaning lady came near.  Auditors, I'd just shoot."
