How Discordianism Got Me a Free Cup of Coffee

Krispy creme or GTFO

To bring this thread back on track:

Has anybody used their mindfuck abilities to get freebies?

Mindfuck or  social engineering :P

How to get free pizza:
Hangout in lobby of pizza place, order breadsticks if the cashier starts to get weird
remember the name and order of another customer
Wait twenty minutes or so

Call store saying your the other customer and that you ordered x
but they gave you something else, if you were able to blend in with the other group go back
Otherwise get someone else to return to store for free pizza

I like to think of my newly discovered skill as being verbal subterfuge. When we got to the window, the young woman looked like a deer in headlights.

I hope she didn't get dinged for it.

Think of it as survival of the fittest. If she can't separate nonsense from cold, hard shenanigans then the herd needs to be thinned.

So, how do you feel about "dine and dash"?

Because, frankly, I don't see any difference.

Hangshai redux.

Meh its more like going to seven eleven and taking all the pennys from the tray

I just got 2 free croissants from Dunkin with a breakfast sammich.  I ordered them, they confirmed, and didn't deliver at the pickup window.  When I asked, they basically said, "Ofuck, srry.  Here, on us."  Good service on their part, and it kept the massive line of cars from fuckign up the highway access to an industrial / office / retail area.

Really, this is more a case for RWHN's "Joy and Zen of Free Lunch"   

[Richter]

Then, halfways down the road, the paranoia set in. 

Holy ass, it was the perfect setup.  I spend too long at the window, receive a bag, and drive off.  The fuckers had me on film too, and without the context of the original order, or proof on the reciept, it would look like I was extorting poorly made pastry from the tatooed vegan serving up horrible egg and "sausage" biscuits with teh second line pastry. 

Petty theft?  Hoho, no such luck.  This was the excuse they'd been waiting for, the excuse I'd jsut given them.  I'd be hemmed in too, trapped by the morning exodus of delviery trucks.  All too easy for the constabulatory to stop me, drag me from my automobile, and flood every available orifice with pepper spray.  My facination with french treats was goign to get me ungodly fucked in short order.

You're doomed Richter.  It's going to be HARD TIME for you.  Was it worth it?  Was the flakey, buttery crust worth it....in the end? 

[Richter]

The memory will comfort me.  I will recall it fondly between screams as the last few flaky crumbs fall from my beard while I'm viciously sodomized with a taser.

Perhaps this spate of free java and bakery items is a corollary to Lamanite's Stoop theory.  That if you wait long enough at the drive-thru, your morning breakfast will come to you

[Richter]

That's a different level of free - foodery, I'm thinking.  Getting something free for a mix up is cool and appreciated. 

If you wait long enough a the drive through too often, your breakfast is a beating from cops with better things to do.

Well, I for one would like to apologize to Suu and GS.  Whatever happened, and however it happened, is no reason to jeopardize a 3 year friendship.

[Jenne]

Fuck.

[LMNO]

For fuck's sake, there's a huge difference between self-censorship on the internet and two board members who know each other's post history just being civil to each other. 

It didn't have to go there, and you both know it.

[Richter]

I appreciate your esteem Nigel, but I am not a good person, or a nonviolent one.  I also don't like being used as an example in cases like this.  My buddies are pissed off, and I'm at a loss for any constructive input.  I'll bring it up if I can come up with it, but biting back isn't going to exaclty help or change anything.  Label me a bad discordian.

No apologies necessary, sir, although they are gladly accepted in the good will they were presented.

I think this is a good example of reading versus hearing. Nobody can gauge body language, personal context, proxemics, proxetics, or even basic conversational rhythms on the internet. It just happens that way. Throw into that mix personal views on the opinions of others, one's own personal beliefs, and basically "just having a bad day" and it spells out a recipe for disaster.

...I need a hug.
