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.

Oh, fuck.

I'm a fucking ARCHETYPE.

I goddamn knew something was funny about this whole thing.

:horrormirth:

This actually explains EVERYTHING. "Why, Nigel," I have asked myself, "why is it that your life is like a story too horrible to be true, and too horrible to be invented, and yet somehow you always seem to come out OK? What makes you so lucky?" It seems a little too good to be true, sometimes, but it's because as an archetype, it HAS to somehow come out OK so I can move on to the next stage. Neglected tot! Wild urchin! Lost teen! Sex worker with a heart of gold! Abused wife! Struggling single mom! What could the next act contain?

Scratch that. I don't want to know.

I'm guessing PTSD-ridden social worker, with a gigantic fucking caseload and no budget.

I'm NOT going the social work route, so that's out. Psych degree>Neuroscience program. So, something similar, only I'm going to guess PTSD-ridden brain trauma researcher, with an incredible breakthrough in neuroplasticity and no budget to develop it.

Like Cassandra.  Perfect prophet material, that is.

Thing to remember, as I have tried to explain to my boss, is that the light at the end of the tunnel isn't a train, it really IS daylight.  It's just that the tunnel is vertical...It's a well, and we're at the bottom of it.

For some reason, this failed to cheer him up.  :lulz:

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."
