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.

:thanks:

honestly, it comes from having put up like a thousand posters over the last few years. I think really hard about how people will react to them, how they might actually influence people. I think posters are a cool toy, I'm not sure if they can change the world, but if you hit somebody on the right day, and the right head space, it can be the snowball which turns into an avalanche. And at the very least, it's a nice activity for a Derive.

The Art of Memetics is a good read, although it is a bit wordy. It changed the way I operate. So did Seth Godin's "Unleashing the idea virus" (which is very short and easy to read).

I also love a good poster. One day, I'll be able to make them all by my self.
