This could be some kind of warning to noobs, but it isn't. It's just my narcissism making sweet love to my nostalgia.
In my first days on the PD, I was incredibly mystical (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?topic=10078.msg322426#msg322426) and very sympathetic (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?topic=10068.msg322260#msg322260) to flowers.
It was so bad in fact that not only did I change my nickname, I made a whole new account so I could shed my nooby ways.
The reason I have been around for so long and yet have such a low post count is because, when I blather every time I feel like opening my mouth, this (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?topic=10027.msg321270#msg321270) is what happens.
The point of this post being that some people say it is better to shut your mouth and be thought an idiot than to open it and remove all doubt, and some people disagree. You'll find the latter group to be comprised of complete idiots.
I guess what I'm really trying to say is, I hate you for taking away my True Discordianism, PD!
Heh! When I joined here it was right off the back of a gnosis trip, itself the successor to a fluffy neopagan interlude. I'd managed to convince myself that what I'd believed for the last few years was bullshit but I was still carrying a bit of reality tunnel baggage. Like the infamous "Moon Thread" f'rinstance :lulz:
:lulz:
I read the moon thread last week and you seemed like a different person p3nt.
eta:
Also I think my posts have become more stupid since I joined.
A link to the Moon Thread?
I had a look for it when I posted that but I think it's gone. A lot of my older posts seem to be missing. LMNO reposted it HERE (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?topic=11844.msg383935#msg383935) tho :oops:
ETA: Holy shit, I used to be quite good! (http://www.principiadiscordia.com/forum/index.php?topic=11844.msg368006#msg368006) What the fuck happened to me :x
For better or worse, KYFMS is a rule I've taken to heart wholly.
Oh hi guys

Ok, I give, how the heck did you go from Gnosticism to the moon thread, or were you just *still* carrying around the neopagan stuff?
I'd picked up the moon stuff from crowley's moonchild and took the whole thing about filling in a hole as fact. Yeah I know ... Crowley ... fact ... lol. But that was pretty much it.
whats a phodtion, and why does it vex you so?
It's always interesting to look back. I don't think my first posts exist anymore. It was 5 years in May since I had joined. ZOMG 5!!!! I'm pretty different now too. I don't really contribute much anymore. Just kind of exist most of the time.
I was a douchebag when I first joined here... I wish I could say a lot had changed. :x
I was pretty careful when I first joined, I think.
Confession time, I didn't do any lurking, just jumped in. Carefully though, I think. In fact, I "lurk moar" now than I ever did.

Same here.
Darn tootin'! Lurking is for people who care about stuff like water temperature, depth, wetness, pirahnas, etc.
Wouldn't have the been the first time a hundred or so people have told me to fuck off. Wouldn't have bothered me any more than the other times either. People (especially online communities) either 'get' who I am and dig me or get real upset and demand some kind of law is passed immediately. Life's way too short to pussy around and pretend to be someone I'm not just so some bunch of random wankers from the internets will show me the acceptance I so desperately crave.
That said I don't hang about whining about freedom and my rights to be here if it turns out they're not my kind of people. I even recall offering to leave, out of respect, because I said some nasty shit to Cain not long after I joined and regretted it soon after.
Somehow can't see you on any kind of a "Fluffy Neo-Pagan" trip. Mind you, I can't say I 've not been there myself. Only difference is, I'd never admit it. . . . . Shit! Bloody drunk typing fingers!

LMFAO. I came here from MW.

All I know is I found this place sometime during the middle of high school (perhaps '03? '02?), and I can't escape, although my orbit has gained some eccentricity. If I'm kind of dumb now, you wouldn't have believed my shit before.

Cram and Ratatosk dragged me over here from Failjourn.... I mean 'Livejournal' with their spaggy talk about hanging out online with other Discordians. I really had no idea what to expect when I showed up. My first post was a comment on one of Cain's pieces, and a note about me re-posting it to LJ... I'm kinda glad I don't go over there anymore, although I think some of the Convert_Me people miss the Discordian para-theology.

Hawks are way cooler than Wolfs.
Been a big fan of Hawks ever since this gig.
