You heard me. Stop rocking the boat, you're keeping the rest of us awake.
Instead of posting your seditious perversions, tell us what you are eating/drinking/wearing/listening to/fucking/etc. This way, we can all keep pretending that we are baaaaaaaaad. Radicals. Subversives. We can continue to ignore the whistling sound of the hammer coming down, while we play silly games, and examine the mystical properties of the number 5.
Stop fucking with other boards. Stop sending vicious letters to your congressmen/PMs. Stop putting "out of order" signs on every public telephone/toilet/vending machine in your town. That's not real Discordianism, damn you! That's badwrong Discordianism...and verging on the Subgenius Heresy.
Wipe that shit-eating grin off of your face. We are NOT amused by your antics, which make us very uncomfortable. You'll probably get us all in trouble, and who will be laughing, then? There are no jokes in the internment camps, so cut it out.
Instead, come up with another silly word game for us. Tell us about the grotty little details of your vanilla life. Make sure to tell us all how EVIL and REBELLIOUS you are. Stop thinking about bad things, and concentrate on the fluffy white clouds. And when your soul finally shrieks out it's death-cry, all that will emerge from your bloated, sooper-sized carcass will be a belch, or perhaps a yawn.
You will finally be a Good American...and a Good Discordian,Ñ¢.

If you're on hold, you have time to "improve" ads around you, etc.
Reading rants like this is like when I go in for my lymphatic drain massage, or drink my MSM and Vitamin C in the morning.
It's seriously, SERIOUSLY unpleasant. But I keep doing it, 'cause it's the kind of discomfort that is ultimately good for me.
If I told you what I'd been up to lately, I'd be in an open air cell in Kazakhstan.
why cant I do both?
today I went into all the old places i work and security tagged everyones coat just before everyone starts taking their lunches.
and in personal news tomorrow I will be fucking a metal head chick who seems to really like me. I will probably do it while listening to kate bush, she puts steam in a mans stride, oh and I am probably getting evicted.

Sounds like you're having a hell of a time.
Solution: Move in with the metal chick, buy Rob Zombie records.
I'm doing what I feel like doing. If you don't like it tough shit. You want to bark out orders thats fine but don't be surprised when I ignore them. Never had much truck with authority.
In other news I'm one step closer to getting out of this bullshit job and working for my self. Should be able to give up this income tax thing too - that shit really wasn't working out for me.

That is, I prefer to follow the Path of Least Resistance,Ñ¢ ... at least, the way I see it is that we should be more concerned with gaining internal wisdom first, and then only later ... much later ... actually think about trying to pass that wisdom on to others if we want to.

Sorry, I guess I was unclear. I didn't mean to say I was a "bodhisattva" or anything of the like. I think I would have to punch myself in the face if I claimed something like that. I was more so making reference to your seemingly gung-ho attitude about spreading the Truth,Ñ¢, if that was in fact what you were suggesting. My thought was that, I know I wouldn't really want someone assuming I'm just a pink who doesn't know anything, so I don't want to act that way towards others by criticizing how they might choose to make sense of it all.
Also, I was more thinking about "Bob" than Buddhism, anyway. :sadbanana:
A boddhisattva is a being who has dedicated themselves to reaching enlightenment, usually refining over many many lifetimes.
An arahant is a being who has reached enlightenment under the teachings of the Buddha that came before him.
Just thought some definitions were in line. I see boddhisattva getting missused alot.

But that's partly my point. I'm trying not to just blindly follow all my preconceptions and believe that my beliefs are automatically True. I've fallen into that before, as any young kid tends to do, and I know it gets you nowhere. It's awfully hard sometimes to accept that you are just one minute cog in the vast Machine,Ñ¢, often because today's culture has become so inherently egotistical, at least in America.
There's seems to be a dichotomy in everyday life of which you have to choose a side. Do you work to be able to rest? Or do you rest to be able to work?
I'm not sure if either is better than the other. To me, it seems like the latter is going to lead to a life of endless stress, whereas the former can lead to a life of peacefulness (AKA Slack,Ñ¢).
But now, your original post appears to advocate an abandonment of this peacful lifestyle, in favor of one of vehement opposition.
I guess, on a personal level, I am still trying to figure out what exactly I "should be" opposing, and whether or not opposition is even worth the effort.
I feel so PoMo ... :lulz: :argh!:

Roger, we talked once of enlightenment. This is sort of my basis for not using the word too much. Serious Buddists rarely refer to the term because it is such a misnomer. Too many people read the stories of hearing a word and then becoming "enlightened".
It's about the journey, not the destination.
It's about making fun of Buddhism, IMO. 8)

Under the Mahayana traditions, yes. But we were compairing the term arahant and boddhisattva, and arahant is not a term used in Mahayana, only in Theravada, the oldest tradition. Thus I used the Theravada definition.
Its all in context.
