CRACKED.COM IS STEALING YOUR IDEAS AND PROFITING OFF THEM:

How should we retaliate?

(Also, if you look in the comments section, you'll find a bunch of comments by well meaning discordians pointing this out)
- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

Cramulus

good spot, tab of acid!



obviously our retalliation should be in the form of self referential comments---


here's what I posted:

Quote from: CramulusAs you read this comment, you hear a man's voice in your head. It says "OH GOD WHERE AM I, I STARTED OFF AS A VOICE INSIDE CRAMULUS' HEAD AS HE WAS TYPING THE COMMENT, BUT NOW I SEEM TO BE IN SOME IMBICILE'S HEAD."

As the quote ends, the annoying voice fades. Your eyes drift over the comment in question. It's nothing like the comments around it! What is with this second person narrative? You can only think of one way to resolve your confusion - clicking on the link at the end of the comment: http://www.principiadiscordia.com/Adventure

That works.  CYOA Wiki certainly has the "We did it FIRST" bragging rights, and this should be out about.

Then again in kind of is the fate of weird things done by weird buddies for their own amusement to be otherwise exploited or changed and served to a alrger market.

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

Not only that, but J. J. Abrams stole our idea for the ARG Cram and I planned, and worked it into his latest TV series.

to be fair, I think Addventure did it first, followed by uncyclopedia. But we did it in a way where you don't get eaten by a Grue every 2 links.  :p

a couple hours ago we were outside doing stuff and someone said something about people being afraid of the dark.  I mentioned a Grue.  No one understood.

Your associates have never played Zork or Dungeon?

WTF?

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

I think I can identify the flaw here:  You were outside.  Of course no one got the reference.


Now, if you were in your mom's basement...

I'm confused by this thread because I think we had this whole conversation already sometime this summer. The "Well-meaning Discordians" in the comments section are us.
"I'm guessing it was January 2007, a meeting in Bethesda, we got a bag of bees and just started smashing them on the desk," Charles Wick said. "It was very complicated."


Lies

Oh really?

Well, I didn't know that, and obviously Cram didn't either so I still felt it was worth pointing out.
