I declare Charlie Sheen a Discordian Pope. We have now claimed him whether he'd like us to or not. This gives us one up over the Scientologists, who go through all the effort of trying to convince a celebrity to join their Church. Also, all we need to win is Charlie Sheen.
I think this is more of a Principia Discussion thing.
Do you mind if I move it?
Not at all.
Could you remind me why we need another drug-fueled self-destructive wife-beating anti-semetic narcissist on our team?
I'd nominate John Cryer, personally.
How bout we just go the SubG root and recruit ourselves an 80's New Wave icon.
What's Gary Numan doing these days?
Touring the Pleasure Principle album. I saw him a month or so ago.
How about we stop arbitrarily 'claiming' Celebrities and go out there and actually recruit a few more like Colbert?

Olivia Munn might go for it
See, this is the shit we need.
Care to give a reasoning? Doesn't have to be fully worked out or anything, but what gave you the impulse about Olivia Munn?

YES. That's the right vibe, man.
Yeah, well, the whole "Miley Circus, DEiscordian0-American Princess" thing that some of the girls that Uncle BadTouch knows kinda starting getting dumb. I saw a lot of bluster and talk, but no action to actually approach Miley or get into her head. That's dumb. And pretty much LARPing instead of Discordia. Then this thread happened.
The late Lawrence of Arabia.
QuoteIt was ignorance of Arabic which made them so superfluously brave, for the Arabs themselves were loud against the tyrannous sun and the breathlessness; but the test-effect was wholesome; and, for effect, I played about, seeming to enjoy myself.
Discordia needs celebrities why?

So we can be a part of a subversive movement that slowly becomes a joke, defanged and muzzled, accessible to all the greyfaces and pinks who think they GET IT, while they continue descending into yet another oligarchy as the world falls down around their ears and they help the machine along instead of trying to break a few cogs here and there? So we can be just another failed Pagan act?

Charlie Sheen, while certainly absolutely bonkers, is as pink as they come.

That's alright, I signed up yesterday so I figured on being on the outside of some inside references/jokes. I'll find out one day :canuck:
For helping.

Please to read.
It's only a suggestion, not a rule, in any case.
Diogenes, I suggest you lurk a bit around here before you dig that hole you're in deeper. Many posters here (some of the more vocal nes are included) prefer that peope who post here actually make sense. So, yeah. Knock off the bullshit and say what you mean.

Am I going to get an answer, or are you just going with an unrelated emote?
I gotta say, if you're not going to bother even EXPLAINING your thoughts, let alone defend them, I think you've come to the wrong place, little Suzy. So why don't you take your stupid ass somewhere else, or act like a fucking biped and explain yourself. That's not our job, that's YOURS, and if you won't do it, you'll be driven off anyway, because we don't deal with shitnecks who spout off fallacies without explanation or defense. Places that will want you will be like here (http://www.700club.com) and here (http://www.wicca.com). They aren't too fond of big thinkers. You'll fit right in.

You are too kind.
However, forums such as this tend to be sceptical and even hostile towards newcomers - often quite rightly so, for how can they not be? - and one does have a habit of letting the keyboard run away a little even whilst playing the guest in unfamiliar territory.
On the other hand, you still haven't really explained yourself.
A small sliver of advice: You're bound to catch more shit for not bothering to expound on an idea than doing so and being wrong.
Because at least with the latter approach, you're showing confidence in your position. Otherwise, you look like a coward.
Instead of claiming celebs, lets make one of our own.
Quick...someone do something that will make them famous.
It only counts if it ends up on youtube.

You are laboring under a misconception.
See, I'm new here, just a few months... and nobody has been hostile (well, aside from the normal level of hostility flung at everyone for just occupying the planet, that is).
Lurk for awhile, get a feel for the place. Understand that the folks who've been here awhile will take higher levels of shit from each other than they will from somebody new, just like you'd take more shit from your college buddies than you would a stranger on the street.
As you said, you're a guest. (Hell, I don't even raid the fridge without asking, just yet.)

Ok I got this. I don't really think it needs celebrities, but it was a fun idea for a thread so people are joining in because it doesn't make any difference whether they use it or not, since even if said celebrities were even to hear of this thread, the improbability factor of them giving a fuck is exceedingly high.
I bet we would get celeberties if we gave them pie.
Definitely Pie.
We may have some luck slipping Zenarchist material to Jim Carey. He recently went on some transcendental meditation schtick a while back, and it really seems to have stuck with him (he dumped Jenny).
I want "celebrity" nodes which are familiar with our memes or are in, or tangential to, our distribution networks. But that's hard to pull off without going all $cientology.
