Potentate claims chosen group exempt from Week of WOES

His noodliness has commanded The Pastifarian Group exempt from Week of WOES, the Week of WOES Award, and all things related to WOES.

Through his bi-linguine method of communications the FSM clearly attended to the concerns of DU's Pastafarian Group and their concerns that the many petty squables of other groups may bring toxicity to his chosen people. His exact words were, "The Pastafarian Group will never be subject to a Week of Walking On Egg Shells (WOES). Should any slimy wogs violate the purpose of the forum, that wog, or group of wogs should be punished with the Week of WOES Award."

Just as the last coil of pasta left my plate so did the revalations. I am hoping those in this group can make some sense of this.

we are whatever the hosts here say we are. Part of being a Pastafarian is not having to sweat the small stuff, so I threw some anchovies in the sauce. Seriously though, sometimes on this site one group or another falls victim to current events, something a politician does or doesn't do, candidates, etc. Watching the dog pile nature of some of the denizens here hatched the analogy of walking on egg shells.

I wish you took Flying Spaghetti theology seriously.

One must think ahead of all situations.

Like: how many spaghettis can dance on the head of a pin?

(granted, that one is a really tough theological cookie)

A better question would be

"How many Angel hair noodles can dance on the head of a pin?"

And the answer to that is....how big a pin?

Bowling? Then quite a few.

Belaying? (keeping it nautical) A similar number.

Etc.

can become a quite entangling topic. Unlike String Theory, a proper grater is highly recommended for full appreciation of FS theology.

Could it be that a cheese grater is the way to compactify the 11 dimensions of string theory?

If so, you could go down in history as having given its meaning to the M of the M-theory:


M would become forever known as the Mascarpone Theory.

(Mascarpone being in another dimension which does NOT need a grater)

not existing or functioning as a planet, but rather as a lidded Mascarpone tub would not unify all theory. At the risk of being alerted on let me ask, in what reality can spaghetti-o's be accepted unless such a tub were observable and finite?

I am 56 years old. I saw my first Spaghetti O' when I was 3 or so.

There are cans of them in every grocery store I have ever been in.

I submit the number of spaghetti O's therefore is infinite. Just not in tubs.

as a pasta fitting the worship of the holy Flying Spaghetti Monster and Our Blessed Lady, the Invisible Pink Unicorn.
There must be a line, and spaghetti-o's cross it.

Whether it be the brig, 3 days bread and water, or the dry searing heat of a brick pizza oven, anyone bringing that product or its unspeakable name here deserves scorn. It was only through the FSM's reassurance that I would not suffer WOES that that sacrilege was dared.

As a noble Pastafarian you have spoken the truth!

Spaghetti-o's are Sunday Spaghetti-Bible class material for young pastafarians ages 2 to 5.

How do you want to grow new, strong generations of pastafarian pirates if you do no teach them Flyingspaghettimonsterism in an easy and fun way? Adult size spaghettis are too hard on those toddlers.

Let the little kids come to the Flying Spaghetti Monster in a fun filled Sunday indoctrination of spaghetti-o's.
