note_to_self kendera - when handing in art projects four weeks late with no excuse other than pure laziness and lack of motivation to buy paint, say the following with a bit of pout on bottom lip and DO NOT make eye-contact: "i..i..i didn't think it was even worth handing in. i do not deserve a mark. I deserve a 0" watch the professor get all squirmy. its because he's now feeling the need to make you feel better about yourself. he'll say, "let's take a look here..." then instead of feeling like a complete failure for not handing anything in on time, you'll feel real proud of your new little accomplishment. ....... 010328 ... twiggie i really hope these little tips all work when i get to college...i think i'll enjoy it more if they do. 010328 ... die bird die verletzt germans love david hasselhof 010328 ... j_blue germans are weird though... its like they have no concept of yutz 010329 ... DannyH I have a friend who managed to successfully argue that he had been unable to do his essay as he had been incapacitated by the stress he had experienced from trying to do the essay. I can recommend this only as the absolute last resort and if you are a fully trained bullshitter. 010622 ... silentbob Note to self: Girls don't always go for the woe-is-me tragic boy get-up. try something different. 010623 ... silentbob Note To Self This isn’t really worth it is it? To waste so much of yourself on the pettiest of pettiness Someday your ache will not hurt Someday the feeling will be gone The black in the middle of the universe That hole in the center of your galaxy Could be filled Just hold off for a while Wait it out, cling harder to the sinking ship You might get recovered This ache has been your rut for how many months and how many weeks and how many days You’re really wasting yourself on this I can’t believe you Let it go, give it up I know it’s hard to do when your whole world is a broken ball of glass The only surface you lived on shattered and distorted An altered state of consciousness, sitting alone and writing notes to your self Someday your ache will be missing You’ll wonder where it went You won’t notice at first when it’s gone. Someday your ache will be but a memory A memory you’ll laugh about It won’t make you cry next time And you will awaken and feel so pure and clean and like the sun is new and the day is good And everything will be in its right place Just stick in there longer Take it from me It will be worth it 010906 ... only_tuesday note to self: it's a waste of time to try to make yourself look pretty, all the boys can see through it anyways. try to fool them somehow else 010906 ... silentbob note to tuesday you can't make yourself look pretty, i would probably think you are pretty. maybe that's just me... 010906 ... pralines&cream Note to self: Shave legs tonight.

HEY ASSHOLE - I HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO DEFINE DISCORDIANISM, BUT I'M ABOUT TO DO IT ANYWAY. HAHAHA. sorry about that. now. it is, in some sense, a western adaptation of zen. through koans and stories about chaos and order, it attempts to show a reader that she is the one creating these judgments of "order" and "chaos", that they aren't extrinsic to perception itself. they take as a prime example, the greek/roman goddess eris/discordia, imbuing her with a not_very_greek mythology. as well as celebrating chaos and confusion, as a sect, poee especially revels in creating hierarchies and orderings. maybe, in effect, to dispel them. these days, greg hill is dead, kerry thornley (omar khayyam ravenhurts, the other founding discordian) is dead, robert_anton_wilson (mord the malignant, novelist who probably played the biggest role in popularizing agglomerate discordian thought/non_thought) is dead. thus, as far as i know, the original sects are probably more or less dead. as discordians tend to stick apart, the death of the founding members and organizations means almost nothing. while i'm not aware of any new big names or any particularly inspired works coming out recently, discordianism is hardly dead, having found quite a niche for itself on the internet. it often takes a low profile though, or presents itself in the guise of something else, even things that LOOK serious. 070929 ... jane {i'm even more attracted} 071004 ...
