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.

Or if you're looking at the finances of Merrill Lynch, for example  :lulz:

Something occurs to me.  Couldn't we use one of those circular charts like they have in that one arcade game where you train to be a cop?

It'd look like this:

Wait, I forget... WTF are we modeling again?

Fetus art.

No, seriously?  The aspects of Chaos.

Is it just me, or is the idea of charting chaos :fap: ?

Only if you actually want to use it to record things.  I think of it as a tool to deepen understanding.

Well, I think we can make many models, which if they're useful for something then surely its not just  :fap:

But, the thing I'm trying to figure out is why we're trying to model chaos beyond the old 2x2 grid... that is what would the new model provide over the old one.

As far as I can tell, the only thing that the old one provided was a way of visualizing that not all chaos is necessarily bad. What are we aiming at with these other models?

More of the same.  I'm trying to get back into content producing mode, so expect a few misses.

I hate to quote scripture (lol) but-
Starbuck's Pebbles seems appropriate to post here.

Point taken, but I still think occaisionally regurgitating things in new formats can make them clearer.

I agree... I'm just trying to figure out where the clarity is needed... that is, I have had a few ideas about models, but I'm not sure if they're useful or not, because I don't know what we're trying to model more clearly...

or something like that.

It originally started when ECH was bicthing about how you have order, disorder, creation, and destruction, but no way to represent creative destruction.

I thought about it a bit, and threw the new chart together.
