Gin is my golden apple.

It seems far more valuable than it actually is and can be abused to start wars that ultimately collapse civilization for several hundred years? Sounds about right.

I have no memory of writing the above post. Damn gin.

Welcome aboard. :lulz: pool and gin bar are on the roof.

It's okay, guys. Me and the other ladies will deal with all that evil fucking gin for you and enjoy it. Nothing to worry about. Serves us right, what with the fall from grace in Eden and all, right? Don't be afraid.

Don't be afraid.

The gin can't hurt you anymore.

It appears I am undeservedly a lady.

In my defense, it was unclear whether you were on the side of evil, or someone who liked gin.

In your defense, every bartender I know now agrees: gin is just fine. It's the gin-haters who are wrong.
A chef described gin as "vodka's sexier, cooler sister" and I agree.

It's basically vodka redistilled with botanicals.

Hello.

I was introduced to the Principa Discordia through the Anon subculture (***Pre-chanology/EFGmask), right around the time of the publication of the BIP.  The philosophical concepts that are the basis underlining these two works became foundational parts of my worldview beginning freshman, or maybe sophomore, year of high school. Even predating my introduction to, well, any other philosophical outlooks.

Which is why I am formally requesting restitution from the authors of the BIP in the amount of Five Whole Numbers made up of any combination of 2,3 or 5 (HAHA GET IT?! F#&K YOU. YOUKNOW WHO YOU ARE.) which will be up to the Authors' collective (and unanimous*) decision.

I was at the time under the impression it was "for the lulz". And at no point was I informed there would be any sort of, well... you already know what happened, don't you?
If you think about it, you could even qualify as them.

The consequences of which nearly resulted in becoming (or ascending, descending? "Wherever the flame has went, the fat man said") a Bodhisattva, and do you have any godd&amn idea how boring that woulda been?! Cuz listen here buddy, I've glimpsed Nonexistence, and it simply "is NOT".

So rather than the dissolution of self (since I like my self). I made like st galik and skittered off to here. (GET IT? 'Cuz roaches love garbage.**).

--------------------------------

I am interested in exploring/experimenting with practical methods of may-may dissemination and ensured propagation (SRSly), as well as subversion of current may-mays for belief modification or for disinfo. (SRSly, again). If there are any current projects I could assist (or hinder) and/or threads these may even loosely relate to that I could be directed towards I would be most appreciative. 

-------------

*I assume this will never occur, hence voiding the request. Or possibly result in some sorta bootleg Dante's limbo situation, which would be hilarious.
Although if there's a need to subvert my expectations I guess that's ok? 

**Just kidding about one of those things.

Hey there General, welcome to the Hell Tube where we are required to spend our days making posts.

I met a few other Discordians who were anon pre-chanology, that old FOR THE LULZ spirit was fun while it lasted.

If you can't tell, there was a split though - the current batch of Discordians that come in through the chans don't vibe well here. I guess we're a little too liberal for them. So we just stay in our little corner of the internet, getting older and crustier.

The only "project" I can think of at the moment is that I've been trying to noodle my way through making some new posters -- this thread is where I'm collecting ideas -- but nothing I've assembled so far has really felt right yet.

What kinds of projects are you interested in?
