Rev Roger, Sermon #62: Sticking Apart Until We All Get Eaten.

Looking at the news today, it seems that Senator Christopher Dodd (D-AIG) not only inserted the language in the bailout bill that allowed bonus payments to the corrupt fuckers at AIG that took our money, but he was also very well paid to do so.  It turns out that the first bailout money - the $350 Bn that the banks "didn't have to tell us about" - included some very sizable donations...the largest of which went to Senator Dodd.

This is the face of AmericaTM today.  This is the ass-pounding, pillow-biting reality that you live in as I type these words.

And what, may I ask, do you plan to do about it?  Don't bother, I already know.  You're going to come to PD.com and rip on each other.  You're going to play stupid games with each others' heads, because you have STRAYED FROM THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS!  When was the last time you kicked out one of the wedges holding this whole corrupt mess up?  When was the last time you made an ass out of one of the people fucking you?  When was the last time you even wrote a horrible letter to your elected masters and explained their parentage to them?  In short, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU WERE A FUCKING FUNCTIONAL DISCORDIAN?

I can hear some of you now..."I don't have to be political to be a Discordian!  I just have to <insert pinealist bullshit here>!"

Well, you're fucking WRONG.  Why are you wrong?  For two very good reasons:

1.  I said so, and I'm a Beautiful Fairy Princess.  Are you going to doubt the Beautiful Fairy Princess?  I didn't fucking think so.

2.  If you don't do something, if WE don't do something, then the fun has stopped forever.  This ain't Nixon pulling funny business with an election, or Clinton getting a blowjob with fat young interns.  No, this is a mess that will basically result in you becoming an industrial serf, the likes of which we haven't seen since 1904 or so.  Yes, it's REALLY THAT BAD, and NO, IT ISN'T GOING TO GET BETTER.

We have one thing going for us that we didn't have a few years back when we re-started all this nonsense.  Numbers.  As I've said before, one termite won't do a damn thing, but a bunch of them will fuck your house up, and you can't see it happening.  Now, as much as I hate to reference a RAW work, what this nation needs is a few hundred (or thousand) Markoff Chaneys, adding a random factor to the system that they can neither SEE nor COUNTER.

What do I mean by this?  I don't mean "go blow up a police station".  I - and others - have repeatedly stated that fighting The Machine on it's own terms is worse than useless.  That sort of thing only makes them stronger...You'll be just another "domestic terrorist" they can use to scare the hell out of the populace.  No, instead of fear, what we need is a general sense of unease.  Let them know something is going on, something they can SEE, but not be able to put a finger on.  One pebble can start an avalanche (but it's better for that pebble to be out of the way when the fun starts), and who is that pebble going to be?  Randy "Macho Man" Savage, of course...but if he's busy, we may have to step in and lend a hand.

Or you can just say "okay", then never actually DO it, because you're too busy here playing the biscuit game until you pass out from each other's poisonous and diseased effluent, while patting yourselves on the back because, hey, at least you're not like those spags over at 23AE.  For fucks sake, even the 4Chan/Anonymous guys went out and DID something (even if their target was just the losers at Scientology).  Are you going to be out-pranked by ANONYMOUS? 

If you are, just say so.  Just admit that this is all just a way to pass the time on PD, talking about things instead of doing them (And don't give me that KYFMS bullshit, if all of us did ANYTHING, we'd KNOW).  Just admit it, and I will put you on the itinerary for a late night visit with myself, Hat, Von Melee, Faithless, and the rest of the Tucson crew.  We will be equipped with ball gags and extra pull-start powered genitals which drip with the horrible shit we have contracted from the various diseased wildlife on our wilder nights.  And we shall know no mercy.

Lifeboat rules are in effect...To quote the great philosopher from Texas, "You're either with us or against us".  The times are too dire for anything else, and "sticking apart" is no longer an option, except for purposes of camouflage (with the notable exception of Dead Kennedy, who can choke on a dick).

Get your rage on, or DIE.

Or Kill Me.

YES!

I've been stirring people up in the grassroots area.  I don't care how many rolled eyes I get, I'm gonna keep plugging on.

Roger, I missed your rants. I have not done shit in the mist of all this except get the word out. Everyone I know understands my rage of what has taken place. I read the news every day, I voice my opinion, maybe not to the masses but I do to people I know who may not understand what is happening. Where I live the news is something no one sees, everyone is wrapped up in reality tv and the melting of there own brains to understand what is going on and they don't care. On the plus side I have got people angry for the first time since the clusterfuck happened. I may live in a place where the average IQ is lower then George Bush's but I will continue to educate and do what I can.

That's all you can do.

Other than fuck with people nonstop, of course.

If you are looking for ideas, we have those in plenty.  Just ask.

HELL YEAH

I'm doing what I can with pretty limited resources and connections. My congregation is still quite small, but there are plans to grow.

Building your local Cabal(s) is the first and most important step.  I've had some success in that area, and if anyone wants any pointers, I can start a manual (add-ons by others will be more than welcome).

amen.  In fact, I'm tired of people IRL out there, people who are informing me of the bullshit going on around us, that there's NO GAME PLAN.  Yeah, I pushed that envelope last Friday, and I ain't ashamed.  Told the new Leg analyst for Ninth District PTA that he needed more edumacayshun.  :lulz:

Bad Jenne Bad.

Yep.  Also, some activities are better done in groups, for reasons which will become obvious.  I think I need to write that manual.

all I've done is posted a few rants here and there
:sad:
and they get buried due to their suckiness and drama

I still haven't found something that more or less me... for example tried the trolling thing a few years ago but it became very evident I just couldn't go for the jugular, even against the most hateful blabbering idiot
I have a lot of plans this summer of journeys to some pretty remote places and adventures planned provided i get a few contracts for monies... i probably will document everything I see, feel, do, still don't know how yet... Its an idea that's more or less me, and maybe possible show the strangeness and uniqueness of what life is and not what we're told life is

well Im jabbering in coherently now
time for crackers and peanut butter
:)
Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.
Justice moved my maker on high.
Divine power made me, Wisdom supreme, and Primal love.
Before me nothing was but things eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, you who enter here.

I did that in the meeting, and damn, he left with his head VISIBLY spinning.

He'd met me about a year ago--a forgettable experience, apparently.  Well, that's since been corrected.  :lulz:

Jenne,

Not sorry atall.

If you lack funds and/or time, stickers are the way to go.  8.5X11 crack and peel paper (for laser or inkjet) costs about $0.60 per sheet at your local office supply shop, and a pack of 12 sheets can lead to hours and hours of fun.
