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.

Richter

It fucks with your head.  I've heard people discuss traits in others and suddenly pull a "WTF, I do that too." Makes you wonder how many peope act out of sort just ebcause they never clued in better.  Also brings to mind my autistic buddy who has learned a lot of interaction protocol by rote.  It's facinating to talk over interpersonal situations or office politik with him, since you can work with the details as if they were for a RPG, or how to program an alarm clock.

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:

What I took away from the KD effect:  The brain is your enemy, it wants to trick you into acting like a lifeform.  It must be subverted.

This is exaclty what I've been thinking of when I mention "Blind spots" in our self view / metacognition. 

I have no blind spots, at least that I can see.

This may go a long way for philosophy! Fascinating!

BTW Nigel I can't help but read any post you make in Nigel Ficke's voice, with that lollipop-nursing demigod standing right behind every one of them.

This makes me incredibly happy, and also makes me need to go watch the video again.
