We are taught in the 3rd commandment of the PENTABARF that a Discordian must joyously partake of a Hot Dog on Friday. I find it quite interesting that Malacalypse the Younger revealed to us that this should occur on a day of the pagan Gregorian calendar and not the superior Discordian calendar. I think this may have been related to the fact that the Discordian sacrament is meant to reminstrate against a large number of arbitrary religious commandments, most of which are from religions that utilize the Gregorian calendar.
Let's delve deeper in to the list of reasons we eat of the Hot Dog.
Here we really come to understand the silliness of arbitrary religious rules. Let's stick it to the cabbage and break those rules.
Any old average Discordian can take a piece of tube meat and slap it in a bun. If you really want to make a statement, get those fancy condiments out. In a soon to be released entry in the Quinaria Discordia, I will be providing various Hot Dog recipes. My current favorite is the Seattle Dog.
Now that you have properly adorned your Hot Dog with the vestments of authority, shove it in your mouth and get to chewing. Yum! Eris approves.
I am not capable of providing you with spirtual meaning and understanding with my own words. So instead, I am presenting you with this quote.
"The implication of a hotdog being puréed meat in animal casing (intestine) is that a hotdog doesn't stop being a hotdog even after we eat it. By that conclusion, we, as the hotdog's casing, become hotdogs ourselves when we eat hotdogs.
I'm a Hot Dog. You're a Hot Dog. We're all Hot Dogs. Hail Eris!
I leave you with one more piece of wisdom.
Don't get hot and flustered,
Use a bit of mustard.
You're a hot dog, but you'd better not try to hurt her,
