i have the principia discordia in two different formats:

.doc - word document with seperate pictures, and selectable text
(great for cutting and pasting...!)

.txt - raw text file, no pictures...

if such things aren't acceptable (i'm not sure about the copyright aspects, but i figured RAW would be down with it...) just let me know... but i figure if i'm not asking for $$$, i'm good...

    I AM SO SICK OF THE PRINCIPIA DISCORDIA! i mean no offense have fun reading that thing over & over but GODDAMN ISN'T THERE ANYONE ELSE IN THE UNIVERSE WHO CAN WRITE SOMETHING CLEVER & LIBERATING?

    i was in bookstores the other day, trying to look for something that would liberate my mind or at least be interesting for an hour or two, but nothing was doing it. i realized that what i was looking for was something like the pricipia--

    something with a FORM that says "do me"

    --all the books were just words in straight lines. it's this tremendous standing wave, this dominating order. the words are saying "anarchism" or "sex" or "how to make pickles" but the form is saying "STRaighT FUKCI N liNES"J

    so i guess what i am getting at is, please STOP READING the principia and START WRITING something else discordian so that I cAN HAVE SOMETHING NEW TO READ BECAUSE lifE IS BORING ME.

    thank you.

      I have been toying with the idea of "Translating" the principia discordia into "homie" ebonics, and having malacolypse the younger and freind cast as gangstas in the hood... experiancing the visions and all... but not in a bowling alley, not the same visions, but underlying everything would be all of the same general message.

      Updated as you will.

      Perhaps it will re-invigorate her worship, perhaps not, the idea of homie discordians seems highly amusing to me, convert just one prominent rapper... and well it would be like a catalyst to a phase transition. I'm not sure what discordian gangstas would be capable of, or what the feds would even know what to make of them.

      You may wish to read whatever chunks of the exegesis of Phillip K. Dick that you can get your hands on. It's something like thousands of pages and has never been fully published, but is full of good stuff. It however doesn't have a FORM that says "do me" unfortunately.

      I am working on a set of five volumes of additional material to accompany the Principia which was culled during its transcription. The culled parts I found in the ruins of an ancient bowling alley in a Greek colony of Turkey. I won't say where because I don't wish it to turn into a pilgrimage site like what's happened with the caves of the Essenes, at least until the archaeologists are done with the construction of the ruins. Then maybe I'll announce where it came from.

      I haven't finished editing the collection, however, but intend to have it out by 3175 at the latest.
