Greetings PD, today I've decided to rant about something I feel IS very important: Why I hate each and every one of you (Reason #2).
What is Reason #2? Because you weren't there for me.
You weren't there for me when I was born (perfectly insane) to protect me from the sanity that AMAREECUH forced upon me.
You didn't rush in to save me when all I wanted to do was brighten this gray world and was surrounded by pinks and gray faces telling me that the way to do that was to accept Jesus Christ™ as my lord and saviour.
You weren't there when D.A.R.E told me drugs were EEEEEEVILLL.
You didn't stop me from writing that anti-drug essay that won me a medal from the local pig farm.
You weren't there to encourage my doubts in The Machine, to discourage blind faith or to help me realize this shit hole of a country I have the misfortune of living in for what it is.
You weren't there to help stimulate my mind as I coasted through school becoming more and more depressed each year as my academic and athletic awards piled up, a mountain of meaningless garbage.
You weren't there for me when I (secretly) abandoned my Christian faith, as I sat through sermon after sermon of religious nonsense that make your tame brand of nonsense seem quite logical.
You didn't give me any advice when I was building a bleak deterministic philosophy trying to use physics to fill the void in my heart where Jesus Christ™ had once "lived".
You weren't there for me my senior year in high school when I was looking for nothing more than a fantastic way to escape this prison you call life.
You didn't tell me how ignorant I was while everyone who surrounded me praised my genius.
You didn't save me from the Marine recruiter who found me a brilliant (From what he "knew" of me: my 4.0+ GPA and 99th percentile ASVAB score and stellar SAT scores; what a joke) and (closet) suicidal teenager.
You didn't warn me that I was running with the wrong crowd and you didn't even TRY to stop them from grooming me into the perfect grayface.
You were strangely silent when they offered me a full scholarship to any college I wanted and I suddenly found myself drowning in a sea of advice as I tried to decide whether I wanted to be a machine grunt or a machine lieutenant.
You didn't intercept the acceptance letters from Harvard, Berkeley, UCLA and the other "best schools" (would that irony were iron...)
When all the world told me how "lucky" I was, you again remained silent.
Even now as I sit in this lecture hall listening to my professor blather on about today's topic: "N-Dimensional Vector Space" (as if I actually need to be "taught" this when the information is so widely available on the 'net) laughing at the misfortune of the mass of bodies around me who have been duped into believing that math can be "hard to understand" my mind is elsewhere (obviously). I can only think of how disappointed I am in this forum. I came here hoping it would be a haven for free thought and hatching grand schemes to bring down the machine, only to be attacked by all but three of the responders to my post (and two of those three "came around" eventually).
Not ONLY did you do nothing to aid me in my efforts to escape this prison called life, it was not even YOU who aided me into Discordia (Unless of course your name happens to be The Good Reverend Roger or you run the following site:jubal.westnet.com/hyperdiscordia/library_of_babel.html). It was the gray faces themselves who aided me the most (if totally accidentally).
It was a gray face stoner who rolled me my first joint. It was a gray face so thoroughly caught up in the machine that he may as well have been a gear or a lever rather than a human being who convinced me to free myself from the American Military Machine.
Now I'm sure by this point you're thinking to yourselves: How can he hold me PERSONALLY responsible for his great fortunes (for yes there is "beauty" and "goodness" in any order, even these United States of America, if you can only find enough insanity within yourself to make it so) and misfortunes at the hands of The Machine?
The answer is simple: Because you (or at least most of you) are cowards and closet gray faces. That's right, I went there. When is the last time any of you guys caused any REAL discord (defined here as: strife and chaos). Uh huh. Uh huh. Very good. So if you're out there spreading all this chaos then WHY THE FUCK have I never once met a single other Discordian? You'd think that with all of your FABULOUS antics Discordian philosophy would be spreading like wildfire right? Oh wait, I forgot, you guys haven't done SHIT. You sit on your asses and play word games with each other on a forum in a constant verbal circle jerk.
[sarcasm]Way2Go guys. You've mastered the skill of spewing nonsense on a forum! Instead of going home each night after working for the machine and watching the TubbyVision you post bullshit on a forum! Your medals are en route via ups[/sarcasm]
You: Yeah but...
No. Fuck you and fuck that. As Discordian you have an advantage: You don't have to follow the rules. Its time to get off your intellectual high horses and give up any notion you have of what Discordia is, because your Lady Eris bids it so. And if she doesn't than fuck her, because MY Lady Eris bids it so. It's time to stop kidding yourself; you are NOT a tragic hero. You are only surrounded by a sea of oppressors if you CHOOSE to be. Maybe its just because I'm insane, but I choose NOT to be oppressed.
Anyways, thats my spiel. I didn't come here to make friends and I doubt I will. If this post pissed you off, good. Go ahead and bash out an angry reply and get back to your precious word games. Hell, start up your word games on this thread for all I care, but I hope you're at least insane enough to realize that you aren't freeing yourself from your cells, you are merely painting pretty pictures on the walls to convince yourselves that you are free while you laugh at the “undecorateds” across the hall.
P.S. I changed my mind. I actually LOVE all of you. Thank you for not saving me from the gray faces because if you had I might have ended up like you.

Another rerun? Who has the damn clicker?! :argh!:
So he blames us because he sucks at life and people are stupid, and he is stupid for paying for an education that includes things he can find on wikipedia?
Also we are fat slackers that just post inane gibberings on the interbutts. Also also he wants us to be mad at him because it would make him feel special to counteract the special he feels from the stupid people that praise him.

:lulz: If it was satire then I laud you, for it was well-done indeed. Now for the scary part; people come here and post exactly that sort of spiel
in complete earnestness more often than you would ever believe if you didn't see it yourself... often enough that many of us have actually gotten jaded to it.
I know, that sounds preposterous! But it really happens. "WAAAAAAAAUGH, I WAS LOOKING FOR A GURU AND I DIDN'T FIND ONE I HATE YOU ALL!"
And then sometimes, they stalk one or more of us (usually Roger) for several years.
So, like I said, kudos, because that was
both over-the-top and really, really fucking believable. Well-done!

I didn't realize that there were that many before me. This was meant to be a satire both of the character "mold" that the forum seemed to almost unanimously assign to me as well as the community itself. You all seem to be very quick to jump to conclusions about n00bs like me. You're lucky I'm not what you think I am or you would have lost me already.
Also the facts given were true if you actually care how I became insane. In reality I'm just a little less woe-is-me about the whole thing. Its been a journey and I would not be the person I am today if I had not taken the path I did.
And/or I am the idiot troll you all seem to think I am. Trolls have stories too.
QuoteTrolls have stories too.
Unless they involve bridges and goats, they are rarely of interest, though.
In fact, this is true of pretty much
all stories. If Bioware had listened to this advice, the ending of Mass Effect 3, for example, would have been much improved.

Jem, let me give you some advice. You have, so far, hit every single troll trope we've seen, and have not at all managed to tread any new territory. You are not going to impress anyone with your schtick. Your inflated sense of self-importance ain't doing you any favors, after all, you haven't done anything at all worthwhile since you started posting, and not a single one of the regulars would care if you left and never came back. But given that you only have 21 posts, you still have time to make a good impression. Of course, by "good impression", I don't mean "look at how crazy I am" or " Imma play up this trope in a half-assed 'satire'". So have at it.
Well, I for one enjoy having some new blood around. Mixes things up and keeps things interesting in one way or another.
But more importantly, where is Rant #1?

Thanks for the "advice". Sorry if this is all "stuff" you've seen before but frankly my dear, I don't give a damn. I'm not hear to "impress" people or "make a good impression" and I don't think it matters if the "regulars" care if I leave. I'm here to double quote random words and phrases. Inflated sense of self-importance? Perhaps. But I can assure you that it is only temporary and only because I'm toying with a god complex as a solution to the problem of other minds. I'm not crazy, just insane.
Would agreeing with you make a "good impression"? If I apologized for being such a played out trollolol would the regulars care if I left? If so just pretend I did.
Honestly I don't even believe that you really think I'm a troll. Or if you do, you're one stupid mother of a duck 'cuz your feeding me rather than waiting for me to retreat back to my bridge.

So, you shouldn't have gotten mad at him because that's his thing? Or do you actually think he can't help himself? Or are you really comparing him to a puppy?
She even got mad at ME, and I'm not even a real person.
Can you imagine that?
I don't even understand what she's trying to say the longer I think about it. It's looking more and more "look what you made me do/you just can't help yourself because something."
If I might speak on behalf of her majesty (I will anyway even if I mightn't) the "something" may be because I'm poptart? I may as well just pretend to be him (or her) since you all seem to think that's who I am anyway. Every time someone makes a poptart reference it makes me laugh. Also can someone point me to some famous (read: infamous, if you so choose) poptart threads? The search function isn't working properly for me :(
Yeah, I don't know. For every account that has actually been PopTart, there have been many more that were merely suspected as being PopTart. But I'm sure there is a good archaeologist here who can dig something up for you.
If it makes you feel any better, however, (and I'm sure it doesn't) I believe that you aren't she/he/it.

This isn't about you, fuck off.
I just made it about me. Doing shit like this is one of the awesome things about having a god complex.
That said... fucking off.
EDIT: I just realized a little bit more about the situation. Apologies to Dok and the Queen for misinterpreting shit.

It's his thing. Whether he can control it or not is irrelevant to the fact that it's what he does, what he has done since long before I was around, and what I knew ahead of time he does. And I still got angry enough to bounce for a bit, which speaks to me not having a very good handle on my reactions to things right now. I should be able to take a "fuck off" in stride no matter who it comes from, and I couldn't, and it's not a good thing.

Temporary seems to assume you got a plan for how to behave after this "phase"? How about skipping the dickery and acting like a biped right now? It's not too late still, believe me (though you might have to swallow 2 or 3 kneejerk reactions--but you probably deserve those, yet if you manage to ignore those and act like an intelligent
person, you'll find this place very welcoming indeed).
QuoteWould agreeing with you make a "good impression"?
Probably not. In all honesty, it'd probably fool us for a while, but if you keep secretly being a dick underneath, it'll all end in tears, I promise.
Better be yourself, be your best self, and if
that doesn't work, well, then maybe this place is not for you. But unless you're Poptard, or really-secretly-some-other-troll-afterall, I don't believe that.
Even people that are themselves and still express opinions that
most (but not all) people here disagree with, they do get shat upon for THIS IS DISCORDIA and discussions do get heated, but it's a different kind of shitting than people who just barge in here and act like retarded zany arrogant insane knowitalls.
QuoteIf I apologized for being such a played out trollolol would the regulars care if I left? If so just pretend I did.
I'm not sure what you mean, but sincere apologies tend to be well-received on PD. Pretend apologies, not so much.
(you need to do some rather bad shit before apologies no longer work, see Cpt.Utopia thread for an example. he really crossed a line. a big fat personal line. repeatedly. you didn't. if you did, you'd
know)
QuoteHonestly I don't even believe that you really think I'm a troll. Or if you do, you're one stupid mother of a duck 'cuz your feeding me rather than waiting for me to retreat back to my bridge.
Well, this way is generally more fun!
Also, we're not a singular hive mind, so many of us might be ignoring you, but if not everybody does, it won't work right? And in that case, poking you with sticks is much more funny.
And about being a troll, well ... Your first post "can someone please tell me what discordianism is?" was delicious bait. I wouldn't have replied, even :) But following it up so quickly with an attitude revealing the question was not at all sincere "welcome to my Discordia"--well that was the part that sealed it for me. Maybe different for others, but that's the core.

Nah we can't have been wrong more than twice the amount it really was Poptard. You forget how many times s/he proxied back in (or maybe admins got a better view of such).
Quote from: RWHNIf it makes you feel any better, however, (and I'm sure it doesn't) I believe that you aren't she/he/it.
How so? I'm not entirely 100% convinced yet, but time will tell soon enough. IMO, currently, only baseless optimism can make your assumption :)
I do *hope* he isn't, though, I already spent more energy on him than I wish I'd had otherwise :P
Well, I haven't seen Poptard on here in a year, at the very least. And I did figure out his signature style pretty quickly.
I'm pretty sure he has given up on this place. Or is going to wait another few years until he suffers some major setback in his life again, and digs out a proxy and a clean email and strolls back in. Beats turning into a serial killer though, I suppose.

Hey, how about you and I not talk to each other or about each other? Should be a snap, considering that I'm apparently a dog, or someone not in control of himself. A lobotomy patient perhaps?
She Literally thought he was a puppy, with the ability to type on a forum.
She's only upset now because he's old and shaggy and farts a lot.

I don't really care if you guys are welcoming or not. I'm here and there's a good chance I'll be here for a good while. Good, good, good?

I don't believe I have a "best" self. I don't believe in absolute right or wrong. I could be what YOU might consider to be my "best" self but then I wouldn't be being true to myself.

You sir, have just tamed the troll. Since I'm staking my claim here on PD I suppose I really should stop shitting where I eat. When I hit 50 posts does someone finally tell me what the oh-so-mysterious 50 post rule is?
I think it's supposed to be "don't shit on people until they hit 50 posts."

Now I may be willing to deal with you, pending follow through.
50 post rule is what Gogira said. Also, you get to see some new forums closed to the public.
Also, I don't believe Gogira meant any insult to Dok, only that she was overly-sensitive about something on some particular matter that she regrets getting worked up about. At least, that's what I'm taking about her responses.
