Title: ATTN MORTALS: Post ITT for a quest to make you more Holy™.
Post by: The Good Reverend Roger on March 11, 2011, 05:23:51 PM
Get a better spot in heaven.  You don't want to spend eternity with the Christian conservatives, right?

So post ITT, and I will assign you a grail-like quest for you to prove yourself with.  Posting your location is desireable, but not necessary (I know where many of you are, after all).  If you can't afford postage to send the results, post pics.  If you can't do that, I will assign someone in your area to verify your new state of grace.

First up:  Freeky must bring me a beer mat from the worst bar in the Legal District.

No, it turns out that God only rewards actual success.  Technically, if you die and I still get a pic, though, it counts and you get into the lounge.

You'll what?  This is A HOLY RELIGIOUS QUEST, not a low-priority maintenance request.  Did Hercules "consider" his 12 tasks?  Did he mull over the Augean Stables for a bit?  No, he fucking didn't.  Either sign up for a quest, or spend eternity with Tammy Faye Bakker.  Your choice.

Portland, mostly, though I take any opportunity to get the hell out for a weekend. I think I'm approaching the end of my run of "OK, this place is full of new-age tards and uncompetitive losers but at least I can have fun imposing my will on this place anytime I want". It's getting boring, Roger. These people are so apathetic they can't even be provoked into reacting. The only social circle I feel any sort of kinship with are the grizzled old perverts at the bear bar. I'm thinking of moving to the south just to get my edge back.

You will, in front of at least one PD Portland witness of your choosing, knock a hipster off of his fixie.  This can be made to look like an accident.  No pics or recording will be necessary, in keeping with the KYFMS rule.  The hipster should be moving at the time for extra Holy Goodness™, but isn't actually required.

If the fixies aren't out for the summer yet, you may alternately hassle the fuck out of a New Age/Hipster store owner, and post some form of recording.

It's actually hard to tell a bike is a fixie just by looking at it in passing. Would a tall bike be an acceptable substitute?

Also, Siggy, I think this means we're going to have to take an afternoon and visit a few head shops and/or vintage clothing stores.

1.  Yes.

2.  Yes.

3.  Completing both quests makes you even extra-holier, and unlocks the secret pipe level.

Last time I went to St. Louis they were doing some bridge construction or something and I got tricked into taking the wrong exit and ended up lost by the trainyards in ESL. It was the first time in almost 10 years that I felt the need to drive around with my handgun in my lap. The Lou clearly doesn't want me there. It can probably sense my abject hatred for Bud.

:oops:  yeah they are working on that bridge again.....  StL has forgiven me my hatred of Bud I think because I have provided them with three offspring who  :cry: like it here  :cry:

Fine, I'll do it.

Location?

Salt Lake City.

I will not perform any task that involves a trip to Provo, or anywhere south of Taylorsville really.  An afterlife does me no good if I get my soul eaten.

If I can go to East St. Louis dude.....  I mean seriously.

Portland, mostly, though I take any opportunity to get the hell out for a weekend. I think I'm approaching the end of my run of "OK, this place is full of new-age tards and uncompetitive losers but at least I can have fun imposing my will on this place anytime I want". It's getting boring, Roger. These people are so apathetic they can't even be provoked into reacting. The only social circle I feel any sort of kinship with are the grizzled old perverts at the bear bar. I'm thinking of moving to the south just to get my edge back.

ECH, come to St. Louis, everything is well fucked up with no hope possible in the near future.....  AND you can help in my evil plan to destroy Budweiser....

That happens to everyone...They don't mark shit.  When I moved to AZ, I got lost in the construction zone looking for 44, and wound up in East St Louis, facing the wrong way into a one-lane street full of junkies, in a 24 foot Rider truck with a van on the trailer.

reporting in from DFW TX, oh Holy Taskmaster!

You will go to the Texas-ist steakhouse within range, and order a vegan-type salad.  Audio recording to MP3, to be sent to my email addie.  If hilarious enough, it will go on the weekly blast to Suu's radio show.

i should have known that you would send me on a suicide mission.  :argh!:

jesus. i just did a google search for 'steakhouse 75249' and the resulting map looks like a cautionary tale for some horrible sti.  i'll try to see if i can find one where the guy serves the food wearing a butchers smock or something...

If their "special" weighs more than 3 pounds, that's the one.
oh! i know the place!  it's called trail dust steakhouse.  it's one of those places where they cut off your tie if you wear one and hang it on the wall.  all the servers are in full cowboy attire and do line dances.
it's where all the japanese business men are taken for 'that real texas experience.'


You're shitting me.   :lulz:


aaah. it's a bust.
even though it's a texas parody of texas, they still have a decent selection of salads. :(
if i order a ten dollar ceasar, they'll just think i'm a pansy and bring it out without much ado...

WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO TEXAS?  :x

Instead, go to the local cowtown bar and order a sasaparilla.  If that doesn't have any effect, rename Texas to "Portlandia".

So get a Mormon to snag you a copy.

Martyrdom is all well and good, but not required.

None of the Mormons I know are allowed in either.  You have to do all sorts of shit like turn over ten percent of your income to the church and not (get caught) drinking coffee or booze, not get divorced without church approval, things like that.

I'm thinking I'll track down the print shop they come from or the garbage bin they end up in.

Reverend, I am asking of you a quest MOST HOLY. I beseech thee.

You will make a pilgrimage to either Toronto, Providence, or Tucson at the earliest feasible date.  You will then either hang out with Hoops & Rhizome, the Providence jackasses, or the Tucson spags, you will do horrible things, and forget about school/work for a minimum of one (1) week.  When you are done, you will document the shenanigans via post and pics.

If your pilgrimage is to Toronto, you will visit the sad, decayed remnants of the Expo.

If your pilgrimage is to Providence, you will taste of the mighty Quahog at the crab shack.

If your pilgrimage is to Tucson, you will visit The Wall and leave a suitable sacrifice.  Bourbon, soup, and lard is the usual combination.

Now now, the way I see it we can compromise. Roger never specified what facial hair has to go away/be defended to fulfill either requirement. I figure I'll help Luna get Richter drunk, then she can take his eyebrows. At this point I'll convince her to leave the beard alone. Then when he wakes up we collaborate to convince him that looking like Edith Piaf for a couple weeks won't be the end of the world. Enough chaos and destruction will be sown to ensure both of us achieving salvation, many laughs will be had, and I'll buy both Luna and Richter a drink. Or bake them something, depending on their inclination.

That is defined as "beard and/or mustache".  In this case, both.  Do not attempt to lawyer the Gods.

So post ITT, and I will assign you a grail-like quest for you to prove yourself with.  Posting your location is desireable, but not necessary (I know where many of you are, after all).  If you can't afford postage to send the results, post pics.  If you can't do that, I will assign someone in your area to verify your new state of grace.

First up:  Freeky must bring me a beer mat from the worst bar in the Legal District.

Due to my time constraints, I'm not going to read whole thread. But... Doktor Blight here, otherwise known as Twid, otherwise known as Kev. Give me something to do after St. Patrick's Day. Boston, MA. Pretty much on the edge of the burbs, but still in Boston. MBTA access. Mission please.

Dear Your Holiness: Initial research has shown that used tuck tape is essentially a wadded mass of moist adhesive. Please advise if this is still in your interests.

God says if there's no postal code violations, send the bastard.

Whoops.  There is.  It's technically a biohazard.

Let me get back to you on a replacement quest.

Used Gaff?  Technically its clothing.

So post ITT, and I will assign you a grail-like quest for you to prove yourself with.  Posting your location is desireable, but not necessary (I know where many of you are, after all).  If you can't afford postage to send the results, post pics.  If you can't do that, I will assign someone in your area to verify your new state of grace.

First up:  Freeky must bring me a beer mat from the worst bar in the Legal District.

Due to my time constraints, I'm not going to read whole thread. But... Doktor Blight here, otherwise known as Twid, otherwise known as Kev. Give me something to do after St. Patrick's Day. Boston, MA. Pretty much on the edge of the burbs, but still in Boston. MBTA access. Mission please.

Last time I got close to Belgium our vessel got caught up in the craziest storm I have ever witnessed at sea. We went through the fucking eye, took in a lot of water and had to make port on some shitty little island. Pumping out the brig, drying up everything and fixing the "Besan mast" which got loose during the night - it translates to mizzen or spanker.  :fap: Should really teach myself some nautical english.

So yeah, screw Belgium. This quest should involve Scandinavia, but I am not Holy(tm) enough to decide this.

That makes you probably the closest non-Dutch Discordian to me. Rough google maps check says it's a 4 hour drive :)

This means you should have come to the UK DoD meetings, since Bremen (where I flew from) is just about the same distance from you as me. Next meetup will be somewhere in the end of the summer or autumn afaik, but I'm not 100% sure if I'll fly from Bremen again cause the location changed (previously Edinburgh, this time somewhere in the south that I forgot--it was a region that had fucking hilarious placenames on the map, though. but that might be the case for most of England, I dunno--between Bristol and London anyway) and now I might as well fly from Schiphol, I don't know. Either way, we need extra crazy Swedes, because, well, ehhh because if liquorice.



Actually at the border to Denmark, or just generally somewhere in that land-tongue?

Roger. You know I don't need any more HolinessTM, I'm pretty damned holy already. However, it is in my SUPER JESUSISH NATURE to be an example to my fellow biped so I am compelled to embrace this ritual.

I am in Southampton, in deepest darkest England, as you know. Money is a little tight right now, however I can plan something in advance (for if you want me to travel elsewhere) if you extend my time limit on Super Redemption.

Yep, right at the border - Flensburg to be precise. Doors always open here if you know the secret knock.
As for late summer, I have only Compusphere to attend to at the end of august, funds should work out fine too if I get to do my pirate shit again, which seems very likely. I could probably take another spontaneous vacation and see how much residual hate for germans still exists in southern Britain...

Post by: Dysfunctional Cunt on March 14, 2011, 05:05:19 PM
Dear Reverend Roger:

I come to you asking for penance as the results of my Holy Quest this weekend ended in abject failure.

You see, in an effort to make everything pretty and shiny they have removed most of the "East St. Louis" signs and replaced them with simple street named signs and signs for every other burg imaginable.  This is done, we observed, in an attempt to ease the fear in people as they exit that highway.  I mean who is scared of a place called Cahokia?  Or Dupo?  They sound so simple and in no way induce the fear into the hearts of those drivers.  WHY?  It's a trap.  Because to get to these sweet sounding little towns you have to drive thru East St. Louis.

So here is how the adventure went. 

We were naturally looking for a sign that specifically said "East St. Louis." As the quest was for a picture of a sign saying as much.  We were almost to Collinsville, IL when we realized there was no East St. Louis sign.  So we turned around and thought we'd get a pic heading west.  Again, no such luck, but we did have enough forethought to go ahead and get off the highway at the Casino Queen exit. 

Here is where we hit gold.  Instead of taking the beautiful tree lined avenue that leads to the Casino we turned left.  Driving down the street we noticed we certainly weren't in Missouri anymore. 

Now I am looking for any sign that says East St. Louis, the kids are not helping, they are too distracted by the woman on the corner that weighed 300 if she weighed a pound.  The back boobs may have put my youngest son off women for life.  But we all agreed it was very nice for that man to pick her up and give her a ride, especially since she must have been tired so she laid down in the front seat for a nap.  It was a touching scene of the goodness in humanity. 

It's a beautiful Sunday morning, you can hear the church bells echoing from across the river.  Older people with grandchildren in their Sunday bests running from the bus stop to the church doors.  It was strange as they seem to be experiencing abdominal pain, they all run hunched over. 

Then there are all the joggers. Very thin joggers racing down the sidewalk.  Most must have hit a swarm of gnats or something because almost every jogger we saw was scratching like they'd come down with the chicken pox.  They may have considering the scabs that covered them where you could see skin.  This part of town is certainly working towards a healthier life. 

Then we see it.  The last East St. Louis sign.  It stood there on its rusted pole, the reflective tape peeling, the green background chipped and scarred.  Like a beacon calling for the downtrodden, the hungry, those in need....

We stopped about 20 feet back from the sign in order to get a really good picture.  I must have been looking especially great because there were at least 4 drivers who slowed down and called out for my attention.  The sign was over my head, so I was going to stand just beneath it for a picture.  Just as I got to the sign a nice police officer pulled in behind my car.  He must have mistaken me for someone else because he called out to me as if he knew me "Lady are you ^$#@(*$%  (edited for the children) crazy?"

I responded in the only way I knew how.  "Why no officer, I'm not mentally impaired at all. Is there a problem?"

Now I notice during this conversation, the people passing have stopped calling out greetings to me and are now slowing down and looking at me, the car, the kids....  It was really nice how they wanted to make sure no one was being hurt.

The officer walked up to me, it was odd Reverend, he didn't leave his car running and he brought a shotgun with him to talk to me.

"Lady, do you realize that the only thing that has kept you from getting shot is because everyone driving by thinks you must be insane?"

"Why officer, I need a picture of this sign.  I just want to.....  Officer, I really don't think there is a need to.....  Why are you pulling me towards my car?

Directed to my son by the officer "Get in the ^$%#@$@ car kid and get your mother the hell out of here is she insane?"

From my son, the ungrateful little shit. "Yes officer she is, we just try to stay with her and keep her out of trouble.  It's the Alzheimer's you see....."

Now at this point Reverend, not only has the officer walked me back to the car, opened the door and practically shoved me in the car, he's now acting as if my insane children are the sane ones...

Back in the car, the officer is talking to my oldest, who I mistakenly brought with me and let drive and he is explaining how to get back on the highway.  He is also saying terrible terrible things about the people in the neighborhood we are in.  It seems they aren't as health conscious as I first thought.   They also are very bashful it seems because the officer told the oldest that we should turn around and never look back.

As we made a quick u-turn and head back towards the highway the nice people in the area send us off with what sounded like firecrackers.  It was really very nice of them.  And that nice officer, he followed us all the way to the bridge as we headed back into Missouri.  They have very a very nice police force over there.

So I come to you, head held down in shame, I have failed, but I truly hope you will allow me another opportunity for extra Holy credit.

Khara

Khara:  Quest completed.  

LMNO:  You will arrange a meeting of no less than 6 Discordians, in darkest Providence.  You will attend this meeting, and bring back pics to be posted.  This meeting may be for any purpose, but should probably involve beating on Dimo til he agrees to write real punk music for that lounge act he's in.

Dr Blight:  You will assist LMNO, as he will need all the help he can get.  You will restrain Dimo as needed.  You will also issue dire threats to Richter, in furtherance of him sending my HST book back.

Sexecutioner:  You will antagonize the most virulent Christian Conservative church in town, via flyers, sidewalk chalk, etc.  This should run for 4 consective weeks.  Record results via pics, and any response.

Planeswalker:  You will go out of your way to meet 6 new people in the next 7 days.  Record the weirdest one in any manner you choose.  Everyone is fucking weird, you just have to decide which one strikes you as the weirdest.

Hovercat:  You will make a WOMP for me, celebrating 30 years of Reaganism.

Cainad:  You will cause a ruckus and record it.  This should not involve violence, of course, but should be funny and/or surreal.

Payne:  You will go without any mind/mood altering substances for a week.  Tobacco is not included, but caffeine IS.  Record your more murderous thoughts.

Babylon Horuv:  You will go to TCC and pick a fight with C_A and Lilpinkbunny.  You will screen shot the funny bits, and report back when they ban you.

I was hungover as FUCK and I think that helped.  I just didn't care.  Didn't want them in my house, and it showed.  Wow.  I'm almost amazed at myself.  Almost.  And it was all too easy once I figured I just didn't care how they saw me at that point in time.  I also refused to have brunch with them the next day.  :lulz:  Insult + injury.

One of these days, I'll write up what I did on Saturday...I basically woke up still drunk and went to an Afghan mosque all day.

I was hungover as FUCK and I think that helped.  I just didn't care.  Didn't want them in my house, and it showed.  Wow.  I'm almost amazed at myself.  Almost.  And it was all too easy once I figured I just didn't care how they saw me at that point in time.  I also refused to have brunch with them the next day.  :lulz:  Insult + injury.

One of these days, I'll write up what I did on Saturday...I basically woke up still drunk and went to an Afghan mosque all day. 

Most BIZARRE DAY EVER.

This is awesome.

You got to rage out, plus you let them know whose house it is.

Dear Reverend Roger:

I come to you asking for penance as the results of my Holy Quest this weekend ended in abject failure.

You see, in an effort to make everything pretty and shiny they have removed most of the "East St. Louis" signs and replaced them with simple street named signs and signs for every other burg imaginable.  This is done, we observed, in an attempt to ease the fear in people as they exit that highway.  I mean who is scared of a place called Cahokia?  Or Dupo?  They sound so simple and in no way induce the fear into the hearts of those drivers.  WHY?  It's a trap.  Because to get to these sweet sounding little towns you have to drive thru East St. Louis.

So here is how the adventure went. 

We were naturally looking for a sign that specifically said "East St. Louis." As the quest was for a picture of a sign saying as much.  We were almost to Collinsville, IL when we realized there was no East St. Louis sign.  So we turned around and thought we'd get a pic heading west.  Again, no such luck, but we did have enough forethought to go ahead and get off the highway at the Casino Queen exit. 

Here is where we hit gold.  Instead of taking the beautiful tree lined avenue that leads to the Casino we turned left.  Driving down the street we noticed we certainly weren't in Missouri anymore. 

Now I am looking for any sign that says East St. Louis, the kids are not helping, they are too distracted by the woman on the corner that weighed 300 if she weighed a pound.  The back boobs may have put my youngest son off women for life.  But we all agreed it was very nice for that man to pick her up and give her a ride, especially since she must have been tired so she laid down in the front seat for a nap.  It was a touching scene of the goodness in humanity. 

It's a beautiful Sunday morning, you can hear the church bells echoing from across the river.  Older people with grandchildren in their Sunday bests running from the bus stop to the church doors.  It was strange as they seem to be experiencing abdominal pain, they all run hunched over. 

Then there are all the joggers. Very thin joggers racing down the sidewalk.  Most must have hit a swarm of gnats or something because almost every jogger we saw was scratching like they'd come down with the chicken pox.  They may have considering the scabs that covered them where you could see skin.  This part of town is certainly working towards a healthier life. 

Then we see it.  The last East St. Louis sign.  It stood there on its rusted pole, the reflective tape peeling, the green background chipped and scarred.  Like a beacon calling for the downtrodden, the hungry, those in need....

We stopped about 20 feet back from the sign in order to get a really good picture.  I must have been looking especially great because there were at least 4 drivers who slowed down and called out for my attention.  The sign was over my head, so I was going to stand just beneath it for a picture.  Just as I got to the sign a nice police officer pulled in behind my car.  He must have mistaken me for someone else because he called out to me as if he knew me "Lady are you ^$#@(*$%  (edited for the children) crazy?"

I responded in the only way I knew how.  "Why no officer, I'm not mentally impaired at all. Is there a problem?"

Now I notice during this conversation, the people passing have stopped calling out greetings to me and are now slowing down and looking at me, the car, the kids....  It was really nice how they wanted to make sure no one was being hurt.

The officer walked up to me, it was odd Reverend, he didn't leave his car running and he brought a shotgun with him to talk to me.

"Lady, do you realize that the only thing that has kept you from getting shot is because everyone driving by thinks you must be insane?"

"Why officer, I need a picture of this sign.  I just want to.....  Officer, I really don't think there is a need to.....  Why are you pulling me towards my car?

Directed to my son by the officer "Get in the ^$%#@$@ car kid and get your mother the hell out of here is she insane?"

From my son, the ungrateful little shit. "Yes officer she is, we just try to stay with her and keep her out of trouble.  It's the Alzheimer's you see....."

Now at this point Reverend, not only has the officer walked me back to the car, opened the door and practically shoved me in the car, he's now acting as if my insane children are the sane ones...

Back in the car, the officer is talking to my oldest, who I mistakenly brought with me and let drive and he is explaining how to get back on the highway.  He is also saying terrible terrible things about the people in the neighborhood we are in.  It seems they aren't as health conscious as I first thought.   They also are very bashful it seems because the officer told the oldest that we should turn around and never look back.

As we made a quick u-turn and head back towards the highway the nice people in the area send us off with what sounded like firecrackers.  It was really very nice of them.  And that nice officer, he followed us all the way to the bridge as we headed back into Missouri.  They have very a very nice police force over there.

So I come to you, head held down in shame, I have failed, but I truly hope you will allow me another opportunity for extra Holy credit.

Khara


This was really, really awesome Khara.   :D

Determining which Church to target may take a bit of research.  I tend to group all of them as the same damn thing.  LDS is fair game, right?

Now if I hadn't alienated the folks that I work for when they chose to play the Christian (not)Rock station all day forever amen hallelujah, maybe I could find out where they get their directives from.  Why oh why did I have to throw that fit that now prevents me from finding out what church they are part of?  And anyhow, who the fuck thinks their choice of music can in any way be part of a Silent MinistryTM?

Will do research when I go into town tomorrow.

No.  You just don't have to spend eternity with Jerry Falwell and Fred Phelps.

You will incorporate the following things into your next show:

1.  Rubber vomit.  If you can't find any, real vomit will do.

2.  Calling the bouncer "Susan".

3.  A brand new song.  Kick those lazy fucking bandmates in their arses.  You're on the verge of being a lounge act.

So you will talk pleasantly - and in person - with at least 4 women you don't know, in the next 30 days.  At least one of them has to talk to you again, even if nothing else develops (so no "talking" by mumbling something and leaving).  As a matter of fact, your first conversation should have nothing to do with anything having to do with significant others, and no requirement of this topic is involved in the second (or further) conversations.

In short, you'll have no less than 5 conversations about whatever, with 4 women you've never met before in your life.  A written account will be kept, involving such details as what each girl looked like, what you talked about (generally), and the cirumstances under which you met.  You will, of course, do this AFTER the fact, so as not to look like a psycho or anything.

Better get moving.

Payne:  You will go without any mind/mood altering substances for a week.  Tobacco is not included, but caffeine IS.  Record your more murderous thoughts.

Thy will, Holy Man.

I will do this next week, monday to sunday. Note: that week includes a birthday bash at a large pub with cheap booze, and 5:00 a.m. wake up calls every day of the week. I will be ready to shred faces by the end of it.

I will in fact go intensely zealous on this - no pigging out on chocolate or anything else filled with sugar and caffeine. I will however get some decaffeineated tea for my morning brews.

Decaf is okay.

Booze, btw, is not.  Just so we're clear on this.

Exactly.

That's why I'm doing it next week instead of this one.

So I can go into the pub and tell people I ain't drinking because my Short Term Spiritual Master has given me a Holy Quest.

I'm particularly interested in any murder thoughts you may have in the last 2 hours before closing, when you're the only coherent person there.

Unfortunately I am highly unlikely to be there two hours before closing due to, as previously noted, having to be up and about at 5 a.m. the same day and the day after.

Anyway, I've been thinking about the best way to acquire that teabag. If I want to buy teabags (or pay for postage, for that matter), I'll need money. Which requires a job. Which I don't have, since that company I thought I got a job with seems to be doing its best to conceal its existence from me.
So the real point of this task is GET A JOB. In practical terms, at least.

So far, the opportunities that present themselves are:

Nexopia
Picture rating, sex and relationships forums. Seems work safe from what I've gathered, I've never been on it before. Lot of material to work with judging by the catagories

htsp://forums.offtopic.com/ another huge one that I'm unfamiliar with and so would be refreshing.

Bodybuilding.com easy target

Fan Forum even easier if we rail into any celeb and push our own choice.

I was considering something gross like a vampire forum but I those are a tough nut to crack en masse they are normally strict security.
Then there was the IMDB forums but its probably way too specific.

Khara:  Quest completed.  

LMNO:  You will arrange a meeting of no less than 6 Discordians, in darkest Providence.  You will attend this meeting, and bring back pics to be posted.  This meeting may be for any purpose, but should probably involve beating on Dimo til he agrees to write real punk music for that lounge act he's in.

Dr Blight:  You will assist LMNO, as he will need all the help he can get.  You will restrain Dimo as needed.  You will also issue dire threats to Richter, in furtherance of him sending my HST book back.

Sexecutioner:  You will antagonize the most virulent Christian Conservative church in town, via flyers, sidewalk chalk, etc.  This should run for 4 consective weeks.  Record results via pics, and any response.

Planeswalker:  You will go out of your way to meet 6 new people in the next 7 days.  Record the weirdest one in any manner you choose.  Everyone is fucking weird, you just have to decide which one strikes you as the weirdest.

Hovercat:  You will make a WOMP for me, celebrating 30 years of Reaganism.

Cainad:  You will cause a ruckus and record it.  This should not involve violence, of course, but should be funny and/or surreal.

Payne:  You will go without any mind/mood altering substances for a week.  Tobacco is not included, but caffeine IS.  Record your more murderous thoughts.

Babylon Horuv:  You will go to TCC and pick a fight with C_A and Lilpinkbunny.  You will screen shot the funny bits, and report back when they ban you.



Quest accepted.

I am just letting it be known that I have started my Holy Quest today, rather than tomorrow as I had originally planned.

I have not ingested any caffeine at all today, nor partaken of any other verboten substance. For beverages I have only had herbal teas.

I have a headache, and everything looks like it's about 15 degrees off on the Z-axis. People were looking at me in the supermarket, and I was forced to smile at them. I misplaced my bank card, and when I had to pay at the checkout, it took me about five minutes to find it in one of my many pockets.

I'm scared, Roger.

What will happen tomorow when I have to deal with...

...WORK?

I'm looking at fun spots from bigboards.com
So far, the opportunities that present themselves are:
htxp://www.gaiaonline.com/ stupid as fuck, may be a hard sell because the site is so hard to navigate, would have to pick specific targets and go for those.

Nexopia
Picture rating, sex and relationships forums. Seems work safe from what I've gathered, I've never been on it before. Lot of material to work with judging by the catagories

htsp://forums.offtopic.com/ another huge one that I'm unfamiliar with and so would be refreshing.

Bodybuilding.com easy target

Fan Forum even easier if we rail into any celeb and push our own choice.

I was considering something gross like a vampire forum but I those are a tough nut to crack en masse they are normally strict security.
Then there was the IMDB forums but its probably way too specific.

Try ggnetwork.darkbb.com, or any gaming clan sites, those guys are pretty easy to piss off, and most are full of themselves. As in they make me look brilliant.
Gaming sites are too easy and I have to shit on those people in real life, no fun to spend internet time with.
How about some Beasting some Therionthropists? Don't think any of us are Trolling there, and they must be quite easy to get to say some really stupid stuff, because. . . . . . . . well, because they're all fucking werebeasts!
h££p://www.werelist.net/forums/index.php?s=36cd73130e605f16b88ef096e4e09615

ETA, Got anything not too taxing for me Rog? (It's OK if you haven't, but I thought it would be polite to ask anyway)

I had an idea for that nexopia site, Its full of annoying stroppy teens so
1) I would feel bad picking on kids and I'd have to play it nice
but
2) Its one of the largest sites on the net and as a lodestone it should not be exempt from trolling.

So here's an idea, I register as another annoying teen, call her Carly for instance, interact with the others and then after a couple of days register as Carly's nice but boring dad who tries to hard to be cool and is overprotective.
I feel that the idea of Parents showing up on that site would ruin the angsty rebellious tone and the site would empty like rats from a sinking skip.

Ugh, work was harsh today.

All those 90 degree angles you find on walls and doors and such seemed to be that much more pointier to my scrambled vision. Colours took on menacing new meaning, even the rather dull and characterless yellow paint we have in our little kitchen area.

I could see in my colleagues eyes that they didn't share my discomfort with this place, as a I walked among them as if in one of those "young naive waif gets lured into the dangerous wrongs of drink and drugs" videos from back in the day. Except instead of scotch and cigars and opium, these bastards were knocking back coffee and laughing gaily. Each chuckle made me want to ram a fist down their throat, pull up their vocal chords and strangle them with them.

Work was also long, and so very. very. very tedious.

And tonight, I am going to a pub to celebrate a guys birthday. I don't know the guy, really. Well I kinda do, but it's a long story that I may cover in the recap at the end of the week.

Roger, when do I begin to feel Holier? Or is it just that I am already at Maximum Holy, and I'm just doing the spiritual equivilent of waiting in line at the DMV?

What a week!
I went out of my way alright, to find weird strangers and strange weirdos - and feel pleased with the results.
Give me a day to sort through my notes, write a coherent summary and maybe throw some of the recorded noises together. It's my first day off work in two weeks and my bones demand tending to.

In short: drunk soccer-lovers throw a fit out of nowhere, old danish man in search for "a little bedwarmer" hits on me, St. Patrick's Day at local "irish pub" goes badwrong, camping in the industrial jungle and getting to know the weird in close friends while finding new weird inside my selves.

Except loathing implies an attachment. It's not the same as Christians being pissed at themselves all the time for being sinners.

Schools of thought and specific teachings vary, but in general the primary Buddhist teaching is to dissolve attachments. The idea of "self" tends to be bound up in our attachments to things we can never have, and the general Buddhist outlook is that these unattainable desires are what make us unhappy.

"I want to be wealthy. I need to get that promotion. I worry that my life won't mean anything to anyone once I'm gone."

That's the theory, anyway. Sorta. In a very boiled-down and insufficient CliffNotes version.

What do you think? :lol: "Be a pussy!" wouldn't make a great advertising slogan.

In general, they reject the idea that a life of suffering is somehow a good or virtuous thing (something which is pretty deeply ingrained into the Judeo-Christian mindset). But neither is it about running away from suffering or seeking pleasure at every opportunity, since that would just be hedonism (something which is also generally believed to lead to more suffering in the long run).

It's more like a different approach to the suffering that life offers.

Yes, but they also make us suffer. And striving to be human could also be seen as an attachment that leads to more suffering as well. It's all about priorities.

That being said, there's a reason I don't consider myself Buddhist. Can't get entirely behind the ideals of it myself. I like getting the things I want out of life, even if it means suffering when I can't have them.

I haven't updated in a few days, so here we are:

Tuesday - Work was less harsh than monday, though using the spray cleaner thing we have for extended periods of time always fucks me up. Anyway, after spending a good bit of time spraying the yard (mostly) clean of the thick layer of mud and filth it had accrued, and then spraying down one of the tipper trucks, my hands and back were flagging. It is surely therefore forgivible that I knocked one of the directors flat on his ass with the sprayer when I hit him in the middle of his chest. Right? It's not like I did it on purpose. After work, I went to the D&D game Pixie and I go to. Fortunately, I was able to get away with not doing much during the game cause we're going through a rather politics heavy bit of roleplay, rather than fightin' action, and m,y character is very much a stupid brutish tank - not political at all. This is the first time I REALLY wanted a coffee so bad that I could actually taste it in my mouth. I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow when I got home, and I didn't even get Pixies "I got home safe!" text message till the next morning.

Wednesday - Work made me feel unusually serene today. I don't know what happened, but I didn't feel like eating anyones faces clean off. I dunno man, it was almost spiritual. But then I felt absolutely beat up when I got home and fell asleep ridiculously early, which was just as well because......

Thursday - Has been a BITCH of a day. I got up at 4:15 to get scrubbed up and ready to go for a day on the crane lorry with Terry-The-Ex-Navy-Deserter. Our main job was at Portsmouth Naval Docks.

On the whole this day was a series of the crane lorry equivilent of those little picture puzzle games where you slide squares around and there's only one empty space? Mentally and physically exhausting, particularly combined with the added 1.5 hour total cycling time on top of the work.

I am now home, somewhat later than normal. And nothing makes more sense than sitting down with a brew and bitching about work. I NEED COFFEE DAMN IT.  :argh!:

Strictly speaking though, isn't there an "End of Days" every day?

But if you mean one of the big ones,  (Gotterdammerung, Armageddon, Ragnarok, Evermore, Helm's Deep) will we all perish, or are we going to be among the saved? If we're saved, I hope that fucking Rapture thing isn't the only option. Because, I would rather spend eternity scarfing down my own bodily waste ,than spend any time with the people who claim to be on the Rapture list. So c'mon, with your new powers, you should be able to get a nod from the other side regarding this. Or would I be better off asking the milkman?

Because, I would rather spend eternity scarfing down my own bodily waste ,than spend any time with the people who claim to be on the Rapture list. So c'mon, with your new powers, you should be able to get a nod from the other side regarding this. Or would I be better off asking the milkman?

The afterlife is my department.  Payne is strictly involved with scourging the unworthy.

That's good work, if you can get it.  Is there an immortality package to go with it?

Hell, I need something to do. If I succeed do I get a super-secret Eris decoder ring?

No.  You just don't have to spend eternity with Jerry Falwell and Fred Phelps.

You will incorporate the following things into your next show:

1.  Rubber vomit.  If you can't find any, real vomit will do.

2.  Calling the bouncer "Susan".

3.  A brand new song.  Kick those lazy fucking bandmates in their arses.  You're on the verge of being a lounge act.

Ok, so

1. This ones's too easy. Real vomit is a dime a bucket at our shows. Fake vomit would be insulting to the hard working drunks that strive to make the prettiest puke-puddles.

2. Wait. The bouncer's name isn't Susan? No wonder why he gives me the look of dfeath every time he sees me.

3. Bad news: despite playing shows consistantly, we haven't practiced since August of '09. Good news: my guitarist got his balls back in the divorce, so we're building a rehearsal space in his house. A new song is an eventuality now. Will post if it ever gets recorded.

I am tempted to find out where he is and skill drag him to a bar because that was last Friday. HE IS BLOCKING MY HOLY QUEST!!!!!!!!!!!!

He's in the field, I think.

It's possible, and mostly figured.

Friday was an odd day, I didn't actually have much to do for most of the day, and I was able to accept this with minimal pacing and boredom.

I thought instead about what form my new Holy Work will take, and I like the ideas I have bouncing around my head. Need to fire a quick PM to someone about it and then hopefully get to work on it.

She will try eating some octopus.

Yesterday was an All-Day-Pixie day, and I didn't notice the lack of caffeine so much. The other prohibited substances were things I barely noticed as being missing all week, seeing as I rarely drink anymore and rarely indulge in other forms of drug, as much as I find such things enjoyable.

I survived the birthday party at a pub without booze, I cut way back on all sugars and other such sweet things, I drank only herbal and non-caffeinated tea all week, at no point was I offered anything that could be considered a verboten substance for me to turn it down but doubtless I could have had I been. I made sure to tell people it was my religious duty to decline all such things, and for others further explained that I was experimenting with my body by witholding it's favoured treats. No one seemed to be all that surprised. I think I really need to get myself a Prophetic Robe.

I was up early this morning for to watch a sporting event on the other side of the world live, and as I was able to partake of coffee, I did. My hands shook for a bit, and the first taste of the wicked brew did strange things to my taste buds. I promptly knocked over the first cup of coffee I'd made for myself in over a week, and had to make myself a new one.

It is now my intention to hopefully find the time to write something suitably epic and awesome. It'll be a genre with which I am in no way truly familiar, and the project I have in mind is pretty mind boggling in scale in many ways. Expect nothing soon, but I would perhaps appreciate someone poking me with a stick once in a while to find out what I'm actually doing about getting it done.

Quest: completed?

So, since there is actually no way I could be more cynical about my job, and since there's no grand mystery to solve, I went wth highlighting Vimes' strong ability to describe the mindset and proper method of police work.  Here's part one, of three, one for each week on the quest:

A good copper does the job that's in front of them.  A dispatcher that does the job in front of him is ignoring the jobs to the left, right, behind, and probably another one or two also in front of him.  There's two parts of the job.  The waiting part, that's where the punch clock turns into a shackle.  Then there's the working part.  That's when your field of vision needs take on certain aspects of the house fly.  You aren't a dispatcher unless you're absolutely miserable doing either.

Nobody's perfected this more than Mick.  You meet him and he's personable enough, the kind of guy that was always a bit of a hot shot in his youth that's put on a bit of paunch after a marriage and a couple of kids.  Then the radio goes off.

"Uuugh," he pronounces.  He dispatches, and he's done, then, "sickening already."

The pronounced groan is how we identify him.  The conversation generally goes "Who did you work with last night," and the response is, "uuuugh."

Now a dispatcher is a funny kind of character.  They don't like people very much.  They like being the ones with all the information.  They need things to be organized.  And they need to not care a whole lot about it.
You get someone who cares too much, and they're going to be broken by Daniels.

Daniels is the K9 officer, and there has never been a more appropriate match between a job description and the person who does it.

"Daniels to Dispatch."

"Uuugh.  Go ahead K9."

"I'm out on Route 34, westbound.  Small vehicle disabled in the left turn lane.  I'll be standing by.  Just for the log, show me out on Route 34, westbound with that vehicle.  It's in a bad spot waiting for a tow.  Show me out with it.  For the log, Mick."

For Daniels the log is magic.  It is salvation, a witness to life's every event.  And with Daniels, there are a lot of events.  Broken down cars, drivers without licenses, lost motorists, confused elderly, unregistered cars, warrants, everything.  And all of it for the log.

"Sickening already," Mick says.

You have to let him do it.  The only thing worse than groaning and taking every call we get is, for him, having someone else do it.

"Daniels to Dispatch."

"Uuugh.  Go ahead Daniels."

"Yeah I'm out with that vehicle.  Driver says she's broken down, already called for a tow.  Do me a favor, Mick, get on the line with the police department and see if they can send a tow.  Sometimes they're faster.  And show me standing by in the log, Mick."

"Received."

Today is Sunday.  Sunday is always a punch-clock-is-your-enemy kind of day.  With the exception of K9 Daniels.

"Daniels to Dispatch."

"Dispatch."

"You can show me clear of that location, for the log.  The towing company showed up.  So I'll be off the scene en route back to the station."

"Received."

Infinitely.  Because some coppers actually do the job that's in front of them.  It's just that for some, the job seems a lot more alive.  You spend a few weeks with Daniels and you notice a pattern of things just happening around him.  For anyone else, it would be a day as normal.  But for Daniels, a day as normal included no less than two tow trucks, a drug search, a bilingual interpreter, three reams of paper, more reports than most entire agencies can accomplish in a year, and a quick chat up in the dispatch room with a guy who just can't seem to sit still.

Mick hates it, but that's because Mick hates work.  It's not that he doesn't like to work, it's just that work qualifies as something.  Work being something, and things which Mick hates being everything, the natural conclusion is one stubbornly pessimistic dispatcher.

I like Daniels because he's a nice guy, and that's all there is to it.  Nice guy who has a way of getting under people's skin, but a nice guy.  I've worked with a copper who does nothing.  He goes through the motions, having us do all the paperwork, moving about for the sake of looking busy, and then when it comes time for him to take action he simply doesn't.

That one was why I don't hate the log.  It's about liability, and a dangerously inactive copper is more than ready to make excuses as to why he's dangerously inactive when that sort of thing gets noticed.  And dispatch is where the blame tends to go.

So you sit, and you wait.  Sitting in the office you can't make things happen.  But when they do, you do them all.  You make the little world of policing go around, to make sure a copper that's moving about isn't doing so in one place.

The phones go off in the evenings.  We are not receptionists.  We are dispatchers.  A receptionist is someone who is there to help you.  A dispatcher is someone who you are interrupting from doing actual work.  So when the receptionist turns the phone off in the evening and you get a voice that sounds like it would happily toss you a heavy stone while you drowned, you are talking to the dispatcher.

"Dispatch."  That is all.  It is the department, perhaps the name of the speaker.  No 'how can I help you' or 'how can I direct your call,' just 'dispatch.'  In fact, we don't really want to help you.  It just happens that helping you is the fastest way of getting off the line.

"Hi, I'm not sure if I have the right department.  I'm looking for the caseworker for NS unit."

"Administrative staff has stepped out for the day, you'll have to call back tomorrow during business hours."
Click.

We don't take messages.  We don't take them from one staff member to another, we don't take them from civilians to inmates.  We connect you to the right phone extension or to the right person, and the faster we can do this the happier we'll both be.

"Dispatch."

"My boyfriend got locked up and I want to put money in his canteen."

"I'm going to send you to the inmate information line."  Transfer, click.

That's because we know how communication works.  You get the gist but the details get all mangled up.  And when you're giving a story with details, it's the details that get questioned.  Can't answer a question about something we weren't directly privy to, so we send you to the person who was.  We are the middle man, and we are more than happy to cut ourselves out.

"Dispatch."

"I'd like to speak with Officer Smith."

"I'm going to send you to the control desk."  Transfer, click.

The phones rings and one of seven people are on the line.  The first can't string a thought together, but can manage a sentence.  The second has something clearly in mind, but can't actually speak it.  The third doesn't understand that you can't solve all of their problems.  The fourth manages to talk without a fraction of a pause, somehow not breathing.  The fifth can only speak in shrieks.  The sixth is your boss.  The seventh is an actual nice person.  One through six overlap.  In two years I have spoken with seven a total of three times, and they probably only qualify because it was a very short conversation.

Then there's the calls coming from a line that you can tell from the ID are going to be misdials.
"Sheriff's Office."

"Hello, is this Dr. Springer's office?"

"No, this is the Sheriff's Office."

"What number is this?"

"It's the number for the Sheriff's Office."

They never believe you.  Like you were mistaken.  No, sir, you're right, this is Papa Gino's Pizzeria, answering for a county sheriff's office three times was my mistake.  Let me offer you some bread sticks.
But every so often the phone can be difficult instead of a nuisance.  It is for these reasons that Pete has learned to avoid it.

Pete's the newest hire, the only one with less time than me, and holds the title of the reddest human being I've ever met.  The office is thankfully devoid of sharp objects, because I'm fairly certain he is composed entirely of blood, which upon disturbing would then spray like a power wash through our equipment.  Pete's a simple guy.  The processes of the office that have an established solution are the ones he's quite good at.  They don't require very much judgment or, well, thinking.

The phone is where that gets complicated.  People are on the other line of that thing, and they are notoriously untidy.

Pete's more of an ambulance call kind of guy.  The ambulance calls on the radio, they tell you the hospital they want to talk to, and you patch their signal through to that location.  Clean, simple, totally unlike humans on phones.

So rather often, they get me.  And, worse, they get me when I'm busy.  And, even worse, they might even get me when it's so busy that I haven't had a moment to eat my supper.  Hungry people are funny things.  Call me at one hour and you're just an inconvenience.  Call me at another and you are an obstacle preventing me from undertaking a biological imperative which falls under the category of a requirement to live.  That needs to be addressed suitably.

"Dispatch."

"Hi, I wanted to know if someone is there."

"Yes.  Several people.  Thanks for checking."  Click.

You have to ask a lot of questions.  Then you need to answer them.  That's as simple as paperwork is.  The questions you think, the answers you write down.  The more of them you answer, the more foolproof your paperwork.  The line they always give us is that it's admissible in court, which means it's under the scrutiny of lawyers, which means that to prevent them from asking a difficult question you need to have a mind one part sneakier in order to have answered it already.

More people get involved.  More minds devising questions.  More heads wrapping themselves around answers to what's never been asked.  Then it piles up, be it electronic or dead tree.  And they store it away.  They store it away for two years, at least, in case anyone ever asks a question that they might need an answer to.

There's the who are you paperwork.  The what have you done paperwork.  The does anyone else want you paperwork.  Behind it, a system, and operating that, probably a dispatcher.  That dispatcher, probably griping about the system.

The system's a dinosaur.  It spurts out hieroglyphics, it tosses out codes and its operating manual has a couple pounds on me.  It's unwieldy, anti-user, and infuriating.  We keep wondering, even in a department that managed to switch out of Windows 2000 in 2010, when they're going to update it.

Thing about the system is that it works.  It's used statewide by every agency, recording and communicating with each within seconds.  It searches national databases and it prints them out in what may in all honesty be a devilishly clever disguise to prevent untrained eyes from reading it.  Preventing even well trained eyes from reading it as well seems to be a secondary effect.

State of the art means power.  It means expense and it means maintenance.  Dated means reliability, stability.  It means knowing that what you need is there, putting the decision to not use it in your hands.

Yeah, not use it.  The system means you don't worry about it, it's in your control.  And once it's in your control, you can decide what to do with it.  The criminal history of the inmate coming in?  That can wait, because you have an officer on a motor vehicle stop who needs information.  The inmate probably isn't going anywhere.

It's easy to lose your head when you've got all these things to prioritize.  Panic is highly underrated.  If you control it, you can get things done faster.  But if you don't, you'll make bad decisions.  It's the copper that's out there doing the job, living the intensity.  It's the ambulance driver that's calming a patient while talking on the radio.  It's easy for dispatchers to get caught up.

Randy gave me a speech when I was new up here.  Randy, aptly, is a degenerate pervert, a molester of inanimate objects, and a fluent, if course, speaker of the classic language Innuendo.

"Let me explain something to you.  You are God up here.  Everyone that calls you for information, with a request – they cannot get it done without you.  Make them wait.  You are God."

Dispatcher speeches tend to be short.  We don't have a long enough period of down time for any more than a sentence or two.  Randy was right.  We're the deities of law enforcement, keeping the wheels turn.  Thing about being a god though.  Everyone asks you for something, and the majority don't ever thank you for it.

GIVE ME A QUEST OH LORD, I AM NOT AFRAID!

You will meet and go on a date with someone who doesn't fit your definition of cool.  Any sort of date will do (simple lunch date in a public place sounds good), but you have to initiate contact and arrange it.  After the date you do not have to have any further contact with the guy, if you don't want to, obviously.

For the duration of the date, you will:
1.  Be stone cold sober.  Nothing stronger than coffee (Rx excepted, of course).
2.  Be upbeat and nice, no matter how things go.
3.  Force yourself to take an interest in the guy, no matter how geeky or work-oriented he is, for the duration of the date.  If he actually goes creepy, you get to bail, and you don't have to be nice about it.


Pics and/or write up to be posted here.

Not sure Lizzaybf would be terribly fond of me going out with someone other than him.  In fact, probably not at all is my guess.  Just like I'd chokehold anyone who tried to statch him up.

You will make pictogram instructions for the proper method of employing a slightly-used fleshlight.

You will put PDers faces in the appropriate places.

Or, like damn near everyone else in this thread, you will not complete your quest, and I'll let the Space Demons have you.

You will bring me more photos of bad raves where they have the lights on.  You will caption them appropriately.

For some reason, the idea of well-lit raves with bad dancers tickles me to death.   :lulz:

The method is entirely up to you.  There are no further conditions other than it must be a visual representation, and you can only use your beard as a prop.

Basically, this sort of thing ensures that heaven fills up with creative people.
