Occupy

[Freeky]

Dude, we're a music label?? Where's all our money?!

...most notable for having maintained a strict do-it-yourself ethic, producing all of its albums by itself and selling them at discount prices without the help of major distributors

Dude...we don't have any major distributors.
We should sell out for sure.

I do like the nytimes article mirroring occupy criminal court re: d.o.s. Attack on trial capacity vs. De facto plea bargaining (Sunday times?)

OK, so hmmm.... not so much the type of response I was hoping for.  Not that I expect discordians (sic?) to be serious all the time.  But I wasn't expecting to be called an asshole because I want to use the Occupy movement as a way of spreading culture jamming.  And making fun of my spelling is kind of ridiculous.  Just the type of thing I'd expect from any random forum of internet geeks, whereas I was kinda hoping that this group would be different.  Oh well. 

I actually was a huge Fugazi fan when I was a kid, around the same time I read Illuminatus and got into that stuff.  So that's probably why I spell it "dischordian."  I think it's kind of funny that a bunch of people devoted to the sacred chao would get their panties in a bunch over how somebody spells it.  From now on maybe I should just spell it randomly differently every time just to annoy you.  And to delight any true dischordians who might be watching the carnage.

I'm particularly annoyed at the poster who tried to tell me that I was going to bring violence from the police.  Fuck you.  No really.  Maybe you don't know the difference between Occupy Oakland and any other random liberal Occupy group who sit around mentally masturbating and carrying signs all day.  Well, instead of taking the chance to learn, you lectured at me like I'm a child. 

Is that how it is here?  Every new poster is just an excuse for the "regulars" to have a few laughs?  I hate that shit.  I'm not going to waste my time here if this is just a circle jerk for malcontented pseudo-intellectual geeks.

Well, it seems you've already made your mind up about this place (and based on so few interactions!) so feel free to hop along.

We've already fufilled our quota of butthurt noobs with a chip on their shoulder for this month, thanks.

[Don Coyote]

Wow, already got some

Wow.    From 0 to "YOU AREN'T REALLY DISCORDIANS!" in two posts.  Is that a record?

I don't really know what is happening at all these other "occupy" groups, but I can tell you that in Oakland we have not backed down and we have not co-operated with the city or the paramilitary police in the OPD.

You don't really know, but you're willing to call them mental masturbators who carry signs all day and even put quotes around the word Occupy.

[minuspace]

Really?  Occupy as a d.d.o.s.a on the political economy of incarceration does not ring any fucking bells?

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

I'm soliciting advice and/or warnings from the group.

Sounds like you weren't really soliciting advice or warnings, but simply looking for applause.

Here ya go:

Wow, I think this post captured every single butthurt noob complaint about PD in one magnificent pile. I am a particular fan of the last line about "malcontented pseudo-intellectual geeks". Man, that was funny the first 20 times I heard it, and I'll be jiggered if it ain't funny this time. 

In all seriousness, however, if you decide to spread culture jamming via Occupy, there is a very real chance that something involved in O:MF which is labelled as vandalism gets thrown back to Occupy, which, in turn, causes police intervention to a greater degree. <= This is advice/warning.

To be fair, why would you want to fuck with the Occupy people is a valid question, considering a "magnification in traditional religious language" is incredibly vague, and honestly, not worth inciting violence over. So, following this train of thought... you might need to be lectured like a twelve year old.

Just sayin'.

[Juana]

Some truely impressive butthurt right thar. Also, PHobohemia, I'd listen to Phoxxy. She's right.

It's happened in introduction posts before. Really reals and what not.

[Telarus]

Based on the first 3 people to respond no less.





Peoples really need to keep the Law of Fives in mind. For realness.

[Freeky]

It boggles my mind that because we were :meh: to his culture jamming idea of Occupiers, we are serious all the time.
