TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

James Joyce was a talentless hack.

Nobody has ever read Finnegan's Wake all the way through.  Not even Joyce.

Hilarious
"we are building a religion
we are making a brand
we're the only ones to turn to when your castles turn to sand
take a bite of this apple
mister corporate events
take a walk through the jungle
of cardboard shanties and tents
some people drink pepsi
some people drink coke
the wacky morning dj says democracy's a joke
he says now do you believe in the one big song
he is now accepting callers who would like to sing along"


I AM A COMPLETE AND UTTER FUCKING IDIOT!

I'd sooner read Finnegans Wake any day of the week ahead of Gravity's Rainbow . . . Finnegans Wake doesn't make a lick of sense, but at least its interesting.

With Ulysses & Finnagans wake, I'd prefer to read it annotated, cuz some of the jokes, wordplay and allusions are waaaay above my head.


Yeah, I'll admit I'm not smart enough to notice everything Joyce packed into his books.

I have the Annotated Finnegans Wake, but it seems as hard to understand as the actual text . . . but then again I don't understand 18 languages.

I got a bit farther in Gravity's Rainbow than in Ulysses... and I found it more enjoyable too, so far.

I still prefer "The Crying of Lot 49" though.
