News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

humor is frequently found in the tension between some point and its obscurity due to some vagueness which is then pierced.  otherwise it's nonsense, which can be aesthetically pleasing in its own right.

...can be.

hmm. So my explanations about what the points are are not worthy of comment?

You explained the setup. There is no point.
These webcomics are half-done, at best. And I'm not talking about the stylistic choices you have chosen to pursuit.
But more on that they aren't jokes. They may classify as observations, but not amusing ones.
And I am alternative comedy, so don't even try any "oh but you don't understand" or any of that bullshit.
I'm the kind of person who can point exactly at the je-ne-sais-quoi, and you're comic, while weird and
kinda going for the lame-funny, does not have that little extra. And in this specific case, that little extra would be "the funny".

Bring and Brag / Re: holist's tunes

Why are you trying to record inside of a garbage can? :P
Comment is  @ the demo u posted last.
Song is actually pretty decent.. But needs better micing.
But I guess that's what makes it a demo? Never made one personally, jumped straight to the pro stuff :P

The tunes I listened to were pretty allright, although skimping a bit on the prodution side, plus I'd mix most tracks
differently. Especially NOW, since I still havent gotten used to my new monitors lol. Last track I mixed was aaaaall bass and nothing else lol.

Yes, and if you are on Soundcloud, search for the Discordian Artists group and you'll hear some of my stuff and that of others.  If you aren't on Soundcloud, you should be.

Thanks. Joined the group. Loads of fun and weird music haha.

Bring & Brag might have been a better spot.  I can move it for you, if you like.

Yes, please :)

Techmology and Scientism / Any of you guys make music?
January 25, 2013, 10:19:55 PM
Didn't know where to put this, but as most music is converted to ones and zeros at least once before you hear it, I thought this may be a good a place as any.

I make music. With my computer.
Techno music.

Do you make music? What kind?

And thanks for the warning about the pool.
I'd appreciate it a hell of a lot more ten minutes earlier, but oh well.

I'm gonna leave this thread here for a little while longer just so I can identify who most of the obvious trolls and assholes here are.
You have no idea where you are right now, do you?  :lulz:

Okay, there are a couple of ways to interpret that post;

A: I'm really, really baked
B: I just walked in to the wrong alley, buster
C: ?
D: Profit

Which one is it?
All of the above, depending on which side of the cage you're on.

:lol: I bet you thought that sounded really profound. :P
Profound? Not in the least. A half-assed answer to a half-assed question, more like.

What was half-assed about my question? There were several ways to interpret the comment. I'd say not only wasn't my question half-assed, I even made an effort outlining several different scenarios making it a fully assed question.
Nah. If you'd been assed to look around this place in any sort of detail, you'd realize the whys and wherefores of that response. And you know, I'm going to give you some honest advice here, because, I think you deserve at least a chance. You've found your way into a very old community. Some of the members here have probably been Discordians since before you were breathing, and some of them were here before this forum was.  There is a distinct bond here, and fully developed culture with its own traditions and customs.

To be blunt, we've been around long enough to have had our fill of iconoclasm for the sake of iconoclasm. We are not impressed by any old anecdote. We have, in fact, seen zanier people than you. We have long record of success in board wars, numerous trolling expeditions and safaris, and more than a few other little trophies on our belts. We're ALL trolls and assholes. We don't really have a whole lot of patience for repeats of past failures, but new ideas are always welcome. We are bitterly divided on a number of issues. We will get pissed off at you over something. We will tear you to pieces until there's nothing left, or until you build a better you. We won't stand for shenanigans, unless their our own, and your mileage may vary. To make a long story short, we are perfectly happy to have you, but only if you check your preconceptions at the door.

Who are we?

The Faggit Patrol!

Am I the only one having trouble parsing this?

Leave this thread here [in it's current state] for a little while longer..

I have plans for this thread. Big plans.

In the olden days people would lurk before posting on a forum in order to learn about the general feeling of the board. I recommend you do it in order to run away screaming in fear and/or disgust enjoy the wonderful peacefulness of this forum, where everything is made of butterflies and rainbows.

Hah, My internet ego was forged in the depths of the the CORe, so don't expect to see me running away from here. I've seen some shit, son.



Having an "internet ego" is a good indication that you will run away. The only question is about the amount of butthurt you will leak before you do so.

You remind me of another guy at another forum. He would also keep saying the most mundane things.
