I would hate to be disrespectful of other people's ideas.

yaay! a 23fnord-n00b!

ABOUT FUCKING TIME

well it's a change from the <stupid idea><that's stupid><fuck you bunch of elitist/racist/cultists/etc>-n00bs

Actually, I predict this is an "I am Eris" or "I know Eris" claim, ala Eric's "I am Joshua Norton II" or Mal^3's "I am Malaclypse" claim.

Unoriginal crap ITT.
If I was trying to be self-important, I would have to kick my own ass.

Principia Discussion / Re: It's pronounced EE-RIS.

Actually, the Greeks have two versions of "E"
Epsilon has the "eh" sound while Eta makes the "ee" sound.
The name Eris starts with Eta, so Eeris is the correct pronunciation.
As for "Prinkipia," that's only correct in Classical Latin, which was used for scholarly work and legal documents. The Latin spoken by the people was closer to Italian or Romanian and worked differently, so it would have been called Principii de Discordia and pronounced "princhippy de diskordia."
Also, because of the Eta thing, Kallisti should be "Kalliste."

Eris is alive on Earth and is a teenage girl.-- not too far from the first eristic vision in Whittier
