| Discordian Division of the Ek-sen-triks CluborGuild Snooze Letter Dececember 2008 The "End of 3174" Issue discordia.loveshade.org This being the "End of 3174" Issue, in which we tell you how to learn your true holy name, tell you about a book that hasn't happened--yet, enlighten you on how to find Discordian works, discover a brand new Discordian magazine, and hint at new members to the Prestigious Order of the Pineapple. ORDER OF THE PINEAPPLE: NOMINATIONS The members of the Order of the Pineapple (also know as the Pineapple DisOrder) have chosen finalists, with winners to be notified on January 18, which is Pat Pineapple Day. The first award was given on that date, which is Pat Pineapple Day and synchronistically is the birthday of Robert Anton Wilson. For those who don't know, the OP honors those who have made exceptional contributions of extreme discord and eccentricity in service to the Discordian Division of the Ek-sen-triks CluborGuild and/or the historical/hysterical Ek-sen-triks CluborGuild. It was first awarded by the ECG on 18 January 1982, and is our second oldest order, after The Unknown DisOrder. We'll let you know who gets dishonored. LITGASM There's a lot of great Discordian crap out there, and perhaps even more not so great. But who's to judge? Litgasm is an attempt to find it all over the Internet. Learn more about how you can find what you want and participate at blackironprison.com/index.php?title=Litgasm. INTERMITTENS There's a new Discordian magazine! It's called Intermittens, and the first issue is now out. Right now you can find it at discordia.loveshade.org/xtra/archive. Edited by the good Professor Cramulus, it includes pieces on Emergence, Knowing We Are Free (which we've had on our site for quite a while), International Relations, Who Killed the Lulz?, Sacred Bull, Media Mindfucking, and more. We plan to have an Intermittens page up in the next month or two, so look for it. HAPPY SPANK YOUR BUTT DAY AND OTHER HYSTERICAL OCCASIONS Bumper Bunny's butt got birthday bumped! And that's not the only one as we wish happy birthday spanks to fellow founding member Joe Monkeyshines and great member Slick Pigeon of Purple Ferret's Nest which makes them all members of Smagmoid Kids Club. Another fanny slap or five to birthday babe Minima, who's a co-founding nestler (co-leader) of PFN. Congrats to Fairy Princess Yoshikyoko, who began serving time at a four-year institution of higher education, and to Princess Unicornia who's been doing the college grind but is now at a new one. The pair are the founders of Mythics of Harmonia. DISCORDIAN CYBERSPACE MASQUERADE: THE BOOK The book for the Discordian Cyberspace Masquerade (name currently under debate) is now in its eighth draft, according to "Hairacles." It will contain various items posted during the masq, plus some cool bonus stuff--or so we've heard. A rumor says our good friend "Danacasso" is helping with layout, but who beleives rumors? In any case, Hairacles said, "Trusts me - will be worth the wait." See more comments and get updates at we.dontexist.net WHAT'S YOUR HOLY NAME? We blantantly ripped off the good Professor Mu-Chao, and have our own version of es Holy Name Generator. Want to know your one-and-only true holy name? Now you can! And you can also visit Mu-Chao's original version, and see your other one-and-only true holy name. Just a few of the name we randomly generated using our HNG include Pope Slug Spit, The Invincible Pineapple Tampon, Episkopos Captivating Overalls, Poet Heart Fungus, Rabbi Schlong Jumper, Disciple Raspberry Nipples, Reverend Drunk Backwards, Father Randy Fingers and Reverend Dildo Bangkok (read that one slowly). You can see our twisted version at discordia.loveshade.org/xtra/holyname.html. And you can see Professor Mu-Chao's original version at www.23ae.com/format/holyname.html. We'd like to clarify that we did none of the programming that created the generator. We just ripped the program off from 23ae.com, and changed most of the words that will randomly appear. You can rip off Mu-Chao too (with the good professor's permission), and make your own version for whatever kind of names you want.
