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.

Bloomsday iss the annual celebration held in honour of ST james of Joyce, for Ulysses was set on this day, and Bloom was the central wanderer in that hefty tome. Hence Blooms day.
Today happens to be the 100th one, so double woo. It very much an intelectualised st Paddies day, with proffessers getting drunk and adopting faux irish accents... and like the book it ends in an extended episode of masturbation.

Quote from: SssBella, Oracle of DoomMaxwell, what is Bloom's Day?

That wasn't very Irish but is getting more profound, the more I think about it.

If I may poach the question and give an answer:

dam, i forgot to buy Ulysses (spelling?) at borders today!

I found a wonderful old copy of Ulysses at a garage sale once.
It had notations in the margins and best of all, the second person to own
it had gone through and argued with most of the points the first person made.

I had fun doing the same and would pass it on again, but can't bear to part with it.
