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.

You guys even have some kinda radioactive valley, right?

Because that could be an "Arizona Theme Park" you could do there.  Everyone could wear lead suits, and the ghost of a certain hipster could pedal around asking people things in Spanish, in a hollow voice.

Do you mean the radiation that leaks out of the ground here? That's actually a good reminder that I need to use my radon kit and figure out how bad my basement is.

Wasn't there some valley there that the Natives wouldn't live in, but whitey knew better, moved in and everyone died or some shit?

That's the story white people tell themselves about the Willamette Valley, to make them feel better about killing everyone and stealing the only habitable valley in the whole state.

Ohhhh...You had told me about it once, and apparently I completely misunderstood.

As far as I can tell, it's a really pervasive legend that most regions have a version of. "The indians didn't want this beautiful lush prime territory anyway! So I don't have to feel guilty about my government having massacred everyone and invading it".

It's revisionist history so people can feel better.

Here in Arizona, people don't really have that sense of guilt.  Mostly because we look around and see what we traded our innocence for, and then we shoot shit and get in senseless fist fights and go on whiskey-fueled crying jags.

It's like if you worked at Dachau, and then found out that you got paid in Happy Meal toys.

It seems to be getting more grotesque as I get older.   :lol:
