Who is this Discord people keep mentioning?

@thelastgherkin I think somepony in the first episode of season 2.
-
@thelastgherkin The potential villain in the season 2 two-part opener.
-
@thelastgherkin Oh! That is my favorite! Wait. Let me change my tee-shirt.
-
@colfax there has been absolutely no word on whether it'll be a two part opener.
-
-
@thelastgherkin Wait. Are you trolling or only curious about the character in the upcoming episode? principiadiscordia.com ... I could summarize, too.
-
@johnatmc Huh. I was going to be all "if Wikipedia says it, it must be true", but instead: seems legit.
-
@fnordly I don't "troll" anything. I'm a trickster.
-
@thelastgherkin Notice the cited references. ;-)
-
@johnatmc Precisely what I mean, yes.
-
@thelastgherkin :-)

@thelastgherkin The Principia Discordia as a title is a play on the Principia Mathematica by Euler or Newton or whatever. Eris, the goddess of discord vs. the Illuminatus! like Luna and Celestia, respectively. Roughly, the Illuminati are the grand, all-time pyramid-scheme and purveyors of #spammer and the curse of the grey-face. (Where the famous monk, Greyface (sp?) was the one that went around in the slightly darker ages and peeped in people's windows to make sure that they were doing anything unclean.) Eris is our savior. She makes it impossible for the bad guys to ever win, because she is *so* distracting. I would love to repeat some of the 1000 byte or less parts of the principiadiscordia.com, but I promise that I will drop it, until I am nudged otherwise. http://ur1.ca/4yada

@thelastgherkin You cannot troll if you have never become a troll. How does one become a troll but to understand what it is that a troll does? So, to know trolling, you must be a troll? So, you either really, honestly don't want to know what discord is, and you sincerely were wondering about the term as it is to be applied to this abstract art, or you know what discord is, and you are just being a troll.

@fnordly I was just innocently wondering about Discord (with a Captial Letter), who is apparently some entity in the world of FiM Series Two.
-
@thelastgherkin My prediction is that Discord will be a male, and the Elements of Harmony will be used to turn him into a baby princess accordion.
