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.

Schrodinger's Cat

insideout

So I'm reading Quantum Psychology by RAW, and it occurred to me that Schrodinger couldn't have had a cat.

Has anyone ever seen a cat that doesn't meow?  You'd obviously know if the cat is alive because you'd hear it meowing in the box if it's alive.

My cat loves to climb into boxes, and sooner or later he always meows.

Yes, I think I get the whole yes/no/maybe point of it and the whole bit about collapsing state vectors and all that stuff, but still...

just sayin' ...

EoC doesn't make creepy.

Um.

Yeah.

Despite the well-known hatred physicists have for cats (throwing them out the window to demonstrate conservation of angular momentum, flinging them across frictionless surfaces, etc), no cat was ever jammed in a box with cyanide.  Maybe.

At least, such a thing hasn't been observed.

Well, that would sort of defeat the purpose.
