I feel like introducing myself again. I don't think I appreciated how meta you guys can really be.

Hello, Discordian internet people,

It's been a long time since I joined a forum (I've pretty much settled on a single forum for years now), so this is weird.

It's been about ten years since my now best friend introduced me to Discordianism in college. Over the years, it's something that I've come back to again and again with increasing frequency and intensity. After coming across this site several times over the past week, the existence of memebase, reading BIP and BIPCW here, and especially after seeing that BIPCW was written by folks on this forum, I decided to join. I'm glad to see there's still new Discordian stuff being generated.

Hey! Welcome!

Be sure to check out the pool on the roof.

What is it that you are into in meatspace, what gets your motor running?

Also, what sort of forum do you usually hang out in?
The world is a car and you're the crash test dummy.

I'm a programmer by trade, but it's also pretty much my favorite thing. I sometimes draw weird sketch things if I'm bored and stoned enough. I also have a pretty rad wife who I play videogames with occasionally.

QuoteAlso, what sort of forum do you usually hang out in?
I try not to oblige the weird tribalism on the internet, but for shorthand's sake, I am A Goon™. e: and I mostly read about politics

Neato, well, welcome again.

If you have any wisdom, lay it on us. There are a couple programmers here, I have tried my hand at it, but have other callings.

Welcome aboard.  You're going to find that the best stuff is in (in order) "Think for yourself, schmuck", buried in the offal pit that is "Apple Talk", and in the old rant ghetto "Or Kill Me"...And, of course, in Horrorology and the Project Board.

Do not trust Nigel; she is not on your side.  She pretends to be nice and then does things to new people.  Awful things.  There was once this guy named AKK, he started out normal, then Nigel happened, and he freaked out and went into a seminary. 

Also, that LMNO fellow...I don't like the cut of his jib.  He lives kinda close to Canada...He might be a communist.

If you're a political nut, go into Aneristic Illusions and read every single thing Cain has ever written.  He is a genius, even if he IS a Manchester cannibal.

This will be so damn useful. Thanks!

Duly noted haha. And actually, the negative bitcoin thread in Aneristic Illusions was a good sign for this forum in my book

One goal we have here is to see the world the way it really is, not the way we'd like it to be.

And bitcoin is a scam.  Frankly, I'm not sure I see the advantage at all, even if it wasn't.

Everything is a scam.

If you don't know why, it's a good scam.
