Monsters...

Hey everybody, Im new to these boards. Ive just recently read the Principia Discordia and The Book of Eris and Im really diggin the whole thing. But ya, anyway heres my rant that I feel like ranting:

There is an utter lack of monsters in the world. I was watching Jurrasic Park recently and after narrrowly escaping some dinosaurs the little girl asks "Are the monsters coming back?" and the main guy responds "They arent monsters, they are animals." And that made me think: If giant scaley things with teeth the size of your head arent monsters, then what are? As soon as a monster actually exists we make it into an animal. There was a time when whales were sea monsters, but now they are whales. If we ever find the lock ness monster, we will give it a scientific name and make it into an animal. I am sorely dissapointed with the underabundance of boogeymen and things that go bump in the night. There is nothing malevolent in the world. I suppose this could be seen as a positive, but whatever, I just felt like writing this to stall doing homework and to make a first post.

So there ya go.

every thought you are currently capable of having has already been thought before. Don't be so shocked, you're not nuveau anymore, you're as passe as the rest of us.

Unless I made a specific attempt at not thinkin in words, just indistinguisable sounds. Then no one would have thought of that before, I just wouldnt be able to articulate it.

EDIT: this was made in response to the seer

and that 'bob' thing, taht seems like its something other than discordianism, if Im correct. is it like a sister religion or somethin?

LOL. A million zenji have done just that.
You can't distinguish yourself no matter how hard you try. Just get over being distinguished. You're still unique even if there is nothing you cannot say that hasn't been said. Don't coddle yourself with delusions of grandeur is all I'm saying.

1.  Naw.  Great minds, etc.

2.  The Book of the Subgenius, Revelation X, and anything by Benrik.  Robert Anton Wilson is also recommended by many, but it basically sucks ass.  In my opinion.  But, seeing as how I'm a God, you might consider taking that as (literally) Gospel.  Or I'll turn your whole clan into hamsters.  Or kill me.

PPS. In the time it took me to edit this mesage and add that PS up there, two posts were made. You guys are like machines.

Or something.

Think of it as Discordia's "wrong" uncle, who is never let out of the attic, except on holidays, when he drinks too much punch and embarrasses everyone.
