Well, I don't know it, but if it was bullshit, then it was strong in the sense of smell. 8)

Tarvoc:
lol

Bwana Honolulu:
I don't know if this qualifies as a "written submission" since it's mostly images with explanatory text, but I post it anyways:


--- Quote ---Troll Box I

This is an Aktion 23 guerilla art project we started. The idea behind it was to have boxes looking similar to fire alarm boxes, but they are pink and labelled “In case of normality break glass” (German “Im Normalfall Scheibe einschlagen”). And instead of the fire alarm button there is some little absurd “present” inside which can be used to counter severe cases of normality, like a fake moustache. Here are some pictures of the first prototype:








Since the prototype came out quite nicely, we started "mass production" already:






Even though work on this project is halted right now due to some time restraints, I'm pretty sure we will have them finished and spread in some german cities this year.

And of course, as the name "Troll Box I" implies,  there are plans for a Troll Box II", but these will be revealed on a later date.

The text is an edited version of this tumblr posting. EDIT: Cramulus has mentioned it in the Fractal Cult thead already.

Tarvoc:
Yesterday I met with Saint Angrémonn and asked him:
"Good Saint, a question bothers me day and night, and no meditation could so far bring the answer to me. How did the Goddess knew what to write on the golden apple in order to stir the desires of the other goddesses?"

He answered:
"Easy. She just wrote down what would have awoken Her own desire."

Upon hearing this, I was enlightened.

Applied Discordianism

Discordia,
also called Eris, is the Goddess of confusion, and therefore responsible for all the Chaos that surrounds us every day. Discordianism is not a joke dressed up as a religion, but a religion dressed up as a joke. Discordianism is called the first surrealist world religion by leading anthroposophs (Surrealism refers to the total transformation of the mind).
If you want to know more about Discordianism, ask Yehova's Witnesses, your local tabloid, or the Department for the Control of Sect Activity and Total Indoctrination.
Or just read the "Principia Discorida", the bible of this underground religion.
The articles of faith of the Erisian Movement are based mostly on Catmas, relative articles of faith, who can be reformulated at will and thereby create an system open for recombination at any time, which therefore is virtually immune to stagnation.
Discordianism is exactly the right thing for free thinking individuals.
But it's really just what you make of it.
It's all just you.
Not some god.
Just you.
For the rest of the world!

Action 23
is a phenomenon within the Erisian Movement, which shall allow individuals to spread their opinions 1. anonymously and 2. organized.
The main aim is to release creativity and give the people a possibility to express their opinion. Action 23 is only one example for the possibilities of communication between individuals and can also be used as a blueprint for other individual projects.
It is not protected by any copyright laws, is not subjected by censorship, and is really independent and above party lines. (Voice from the back seats: "It's not true, we're all anarchists here!")
In chapter 4, you will find a collection of available flyers revealed to us, B. Metulevskie, Adornus Abel Magnifikus Makulatus and Frater M23, not a few many years ago on one of our travels through space and time (we only had a towel and... that's another story!). As you will see after studying them, the action is based on the pyramid principle and its success depends on the people willing to participate in it. That includes you. But attention! You will be violating the law (bla bla...), for Action 23 is the most subversive I could come up with as to now, or at least the most subversive I had the courage to publish.
Therefore:
Join us - for confusion's sake!
For if you can't convince 'em, confuse 'em!
