THE PDCOM STANDARD REPOSITORY OF COMMONLY EXPRESSED GRIEVANCES

Q. YOU GUYS ALL THINK THE SAME THING ALL THE TIME AND HATE ANYONE WHO DISAGREES, ETC.

A. PD is a community and one of the foremost indicator of communities is Groupthink. As special as we all are, this place is no exception to that rule. As an outsider, you are going to encounter this more often and more intensely than the Regulars and Old-Timers do. Maybe that's because we tune a lot of it out, or because we've been here longer than you and we know where our differences are. There are actually numerous deep differences in the opinions, tactics, and philosophies among the people here, it's just that you are new and haven't gotten to know any of us well enough to know what they are. Just stick around for a while and you may witness one of our frequent Civil Wars.


Q. ROGER AND/OR NIGEL HAS/HAVE A SECRET MIND-CONTROL LASER ARRAY IN A SATELLITE THAT FORCES EVERYONE TO WORSHIP HIM/HER/THEM.

A. That's actually true, but we don't talk about it because it spoils the mystery.


Q. LOL I WAS JUST JOKING WHY YOU GUYS STILL HATE ME?

A. It isn't that hard to tell the difference between a "joke" and a horribly failed argument or statement that someone refuses to own up to. You're not fooling anybody with your "OH, YOU THOUGHT I SAID JEWS? NO I SAID BLUES. I HATE THE BLUES" shit. Also, even if it were a joke, it was a bad one, and as you'll learn after you've lurked moar, it is far, far better to admit being an asshole than to admit having an awful sense of humor.


Q. YOU GUYS AREN'T "DISCORDIAN" ENOUGH.

A. (Read this in your best Gene Wilder Meme voice) - Oh, you want us to be Discordian? Tell us again how it isn't Discordian to be something you didn't expect.


MORE TO COME

Q. THE SEARCH THING DON'T WORK!

A. Google, being like a full-time, serious career-search-engine, seems to do a decent job of it.

Just enter the search term followed by "site:.principiadiscordia.com"

I want to complain about something.  Some days PD almost seems like it wasn't set up for my convenience, almost as if it were not MY Discordia.  I find this to be very, very unfair, and if something isn't done about it, you can rest assured that I will bellow out my complaints on my Facebook status, just to let the entire world know how terribly, terribly hurt you have made me feel.

In other words, we're doing our jobs right. Thanks for the compliment!

Now go back to the end of the line, and think up something new to complain about for your next trip past the ticket counter.

* Note:  This will not stop the puns, at least not for any longer than it'll take RWHN to get to the bank and back each month.  Less time than that, if he's got his smartphone with him.

You can't buy it away.  You can only buy it's delay, while it piles up and piles up, waiting for the day when you can no longer pay.

Reminds me of something.  But what?

Next grievance:  I sit and wait for cool content to show up, just like everyone else does.

WHERE IS CONTENT?

I don't get it.

I mean, I'm VIEWING, but nothing's happening.

Just have a little patience. It's coming, I promise. Here, sprinkle some salt on your arms to pass the time.

Seen this?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ2Fh3tAD-I (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ2Fh3tAD-I)

I'm about to watch it, but from the first 3 minutes, it could be actually worth it - unlike most 40-minute webumentaries.

Also, where do I find the syntax for snazzy stuff like turning words into links?

Neato! Watching now.

A tip for the syntax in repayment.

Open a quote response of a post with a neat trick, like words that are a link. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntu-poC2FOI)  :) You can also learn to color them, but I'll leave that gem to you.

Hint: Hirley0, just don't stare too long without proper PPE.
