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.

Russian authorities have imposed a state of emergency around about 500 towns and villages because of wildfires burning across the west of the country, officials said Monday.

Most of the fires -- among the worst ever to hit the region -- were started accidentally by people burning garbage, dropping cigarettes, or failing to extinguish campfires or barbecues properly, Emergency Situations Ministry representative Irina Andrianova said.

That's Pakistan, not Russia. I'm not entirely sure if you were serious or not, but it confused me for a moment as well, since I heard about both disasters in a short time.

About 1000 russians have also drowned swimming while drunk.

That's a sensible prophecy.  Nostradamus really missed a bet with that one.

This reminded me of an 8-bit Theater strip where they drown in fire (also marginally of the DrownBall Olympics).

But i looked in over 500 strips and i cannot find it  :sad:

Living in Russia is basically like being shat on by all of history.

Russian history really starts with the Mongol invasion.  Then things got worse.
