The Aneristic Illusion

[Random Probability]

A strange thing occurred to me.  In between pondering a diatribe about the dissociative disorders of domestic Greyface Cabbages and plotting to do a proper troll of some right wing nut job virtual meeting hall, I had an epiphany.

What if They(tm) are more discordian than we?

You know who They(tm) are.  The ones who decide that skirts will be above the knee this season and below knee next season, that we work nine-to-five, that work weeks are five days long, that the sun will rise at precisely 5:54AM tomorrow morning, and so on.  You know....  Them(tm).

Now, before you all point your fingers (or just give me the finger) and tell me I've gone around the bend, let me explain.  Firstly, yes, I have gone around the bend, but that's entirely beside the point.  Secondly, consider the facts.

Fact:  There is no real order to the world we live on.  By extension, there is no order to the universe at large.  This is the way She wants it, obviously.  Some may argue that this planet (Earth if you reading this from some other planet), our solar system, and all the other pretty lights in the cosmos are all part of some grand, greatly ordered system.  Those same people are also imbeciles, but we won't get into that in this rant.  I assure you, the entire universe as we know it is purely chaotic, especially the bits some insist are "organized" (whatever the hell that means).  If you don't belive me, consider tornados, hurricanes, and typhoons.  If cosmological bodies are organized then you have to accept that random atmospheric phenomenon are organized.  Obviously they aren't. So therefore, everything is chaotic.

Glad we cleared that bit up.  Now here's the important part so pay attention.  Stop drooling.  Close your mouth and sit up straight. I'm about to make something resembling a point.  Thank you.  No, not you...  You can go get fucked.  I meant the intelligent people reading this. Yes, them...

Since the Universe and everything in it is inherently chaotic, it only follows that everything we percieve as being ordered is, in all truth, disordered.  Pick any ostensibly organized system you please and look at it very closely.  Government is one of my favorite targets of this examination (and just to ridicule in general because it is so much fun).

All governments are composed of all sorts of people gathered together rather pell mell in various and sundry ways, all working more-or-less together in a direction vaguely resembling their professed aim.  When you look at their activities closely, suddenly you notice that there isn't any one individual anywhere in any organization that has any control over what their organization does or where it goes.  No control whatsoever.  Certainly they are all mindless cogs in a vast inhuman machine.  That goes for the lowliest bloke at the bottom to the greatest lord high mucky muck at the top.  Nobody is in control, precisely like a tornado or hurricane.

If you burrow down to the most insignificant minutiae of detail, the individual cog or worker, and examine their motivations for doing what they do (as if they had actually ever thought about it), you would find their reasons were entirely selfish.  Not surprising, really.  We all think primarily of ourselves.  In fact, statistically, more people survive if they think only of themselves.  But this principle also applies to the apes at the top of the fuck pyramid.  Prime Ministers, Presidents, Evil Dictators, CEO's, and all their ilk are also only thinking of themselves.  They care not a whit for the millions of peons below them, other than what it takes to win their adoration for one more election, or to entice them to spend their work-labor credit slips (aka money).

There have been the fools who come round and say, "But Random, They(tm) make all the rules!  They are Greyface and Evil!!"

To which I usually kick them in the hurty bits, although occasionally I may remark, "They(tm) only make rules through utterly random occurences to influence their accumulation of selfish gain."  Typically I will poke them in the eye at this point, just to make myself clear.  (you can take their wallet while they are distracted thusly).

So you see...  the strangeness of it all is that Eristic forces give rise to Aneristic forces, then inevitably devolve into an Eristic state.

I call this, the Aneristic Illusion.

8/10.

that was pretty good, but...

-1 point for belaboring the obvious (this is subjective; some points may not be obvious to some people)

and...

-1 point because I still think you might be Horab.

keep it up, though. more people who can write is ALWAYS a good thing.

And what if they jam rockets up their rectums and fly to Saturn?  What then, huh?  WHAT THEN?

And what if they jam rockets up their rectums and fly to Saturn? What then, huh? WHAT THEN?

Obviously that would never work.  The force of their ejaculation would cause them to crash or their massive assgasm would implode the rocket before they even left atmo.

Tell me.... You've tried this, haven't you?  o.O
