First page of google results for "eris": Wiki entries for "Eris (dwarf planet)" and "Eris" disambiguation page.

Entries for the goddess Eris at theoi.com and pantheon.org

Two news articles about the discovery of the dwarf planet Eris

and references to the Droid Eris.

Nothing about Discordia on page one.  :fnord:



I don't know what google page *your* looking at, but discordianism comes up as *my* second result when I look up Eris on google.

Uh, I think you're the only one.

Im not the only one, this comes up from a friends computer somewhere else in the world:
- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

Could be some grunt-level art designer that came up with it but never let the higher-ups in on the gag.  Is Grand Theft still a big deal in game land? 
Yes, it is a very big deal.
And it has multiplayer support now too.
People still are playing it.
Fuck, I'm playing it now.

Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

Look, IMO, you guys are all doing it wrong. The argument on whether or not this is or isn't an actual nod to Discordianism is pointless. As Discordians (y'know, the "reely-reel" type), we should be propagating the idea that someone at Rockstar Games is secretly a Discordian, and putting subtle references to Discordianism into their game. Regardess of the reality of the situation.

Basicly, it doesn't matter whether or not these guys are Discordian, what matters is that we say they are, and if we can get others to believe it.

This.  Though, I suspect it is very much on purpose.

Absolutely. Completely on purpose, and I'll hear nothing else about it.

In Minecraft, the golden apple is the item that restores all your health. Also the developer, Notch, is an asshole, so he's basically guarenteed to be a Discordian.

For the record, that sounds more like Idunn's golden apples.

Liberty stories? Yeah, I think so, It's all about "liberty city" which is a copy of new york as I understand it.
It's mad, serious, fun.
