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.

Back off topic:  What is it about shitty little towns that put up huge Goddamn ridiculous monuments to stupid shit?  The giant nickel in Sudbury is almost as depressing as the big concrete cashew in Seguin.


I think its the municipal version of a roadside attraction.

The only people who would stop for something like that are already in Branson, Missouri.

"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."

Toronto has a giant sonic screwdriver next to the Skydome... apparently we're big Dr Who fans.

Politicians after making a name for themselves with shitty monuments mainly. Cheap vote getter as supporting the arts and those who don't like it generally never care enough to find out who's responsible.
Nine naked Men just walking down the road will cause a heap of trouble for all concerned.

Is this a North American thing?  Or do other places do this?

The main thing she did was stir up a great deal of antagonism from regional villagers toward the movement to preserve the gorillas, and it's very likely that she caused many more killings than would have occurred if she had left well enough alone. Sapolsky wrote about her a bit.

Extremism always winds up like that.

Yeah, people started killing gorillas JUST to piss her off.

Oops.

A giant nickel.  :lol:

Around here we mostly satisfy ourselves with Paul Bunyan, because Paul Bunyan.

However, we also have what may be Oregon's most famous and beloved roadside attraction, the Mystery Hole.
