“There is a place not far from here,
In fact, it’s rather near to here,
Step away from the reality you see,
And you’ll see the reality that belongs to me…”
For many years now the Shrine has featured a forum accompanying the site, that’s intended to be a place for people to come together and share their opinions on practically anything without fear of unfair reprisals or hasty judgements.
In recent years the forum has become a quiet place of self-reflection and solitude, a place where the silence is broken only by the melodic trickling from the fountains set into the walls; although you might hear it differently, as the howl of desert winds or the creaking floorboards of an haunted mansion.
And that’s the best thing about a forum like ours—in so many ways it is a blank slate, a tabula rasa upon which our members are free to engrave some trace of themselves.
So if you’re looking for somewhere to expand your mind, or even just to pass an idle few minutes, look no further than the Shrine of Insanity forums. Membership is totally free and includes the benefit of a padded cell where you can bounce off the walls without causing yourself serious bodily harm.
It is a place for you to vent your frustrations about life, or share your new favourite song. The forum currently features topics on everything from Thor to energy drinks (how else do you think he lifts that hammer?), Tony Stark to Lady Gaga and Slavic vampires to baked potatoes. Plus, there’s always my wildly underappreciated topic about Prehistoric Antarctica.
So do yourself a favour, become a Shriner today. It won’t hurt as much as you think, we promise.
