Posted this Pungenday, the 63rd day of Chaos in the YOLD 3190

Discordian Wednesday. Erisian Hump Day. Fnord.


"If you would be pungent,
be brief."

-- Robert Southey


Middle day of the week in the Discordian calendar, created by some followers of Eris and observed by others since.

Pungenday00001 is the third day of the Discordian week and is associated with Dr. Van Van Mojo; the element pungent; the consonants g, p, n, and t; the number 5 (Isn't everything?); badgers, badgers, and badgers; as well as potpourri. Having a three-day work week (Boomtime, Pungenday, & Prickle-Prickle), and a two-day weekend (Sweetmorn & Setting Orange),00002, gives Discordianism a playful and unconventional perspective on the concept of timekeeping, amongst other things.

Hail Eris, all hail Discordia!

00001This is not Patchouli Day. Unless it is.
00002Although there is some well-founded debate and discussion between several cabals as to which are weekdays and which are weekends, not to mention the whole work thing. Drown out your opposition with kettle drums, baby!

Omnia Discordia
