Boredom
Ah hello again, how are you today?
Hmm bored?
I see, you were bored and decided a little discordant rambling would be just the thing to clear your funk? Well i suppose that gives me today's topic, boredom.
I didn't create it that's for sure, if anything I'm the embodiment of everything besides boredom. Anarchy, chaos, those little things that happen that don't make sense that keep things interesting, but what is boredom everypony, heck everyone, asks.
Well I am an expert on the topic myself seeing as I've already spend over a one thousand years trapped in stone.
Boredom is the want to do something, but at the same time the lack of inspiration to do anything to put it simply. It's that force that makes us create because without boredom some of the... lest logical ideas such as abstract art and many kinds of music would never have come about.
Take the first ponies for example, one of them got bored of doing nothing but sleep, eat, and procreate-
What? Don't look at me like that. I was around back then, heck I was worshiped back then. Those ponies got bored with my usual shenanigans so I ended up bored as well. So I led one of those ponies over a hollow log and let me tell you, the sheer entertainment he got from the simple sound of hooves thumping against a hollow log was satisfying. He then proceeded to drag said log back to the cave his tribe lived in and things went from there. I also gave them fire a few years later while toying with lightning...
What? Isn't a spirit allowed to have fun anymore? Face it without me you ponies would still be grazing, mindless, and stupid. It's a simple fact. After the discovery of that log that pony went on to try making other interesting sounds, figuring out the basics of how to sing as well as expanding his percussion kit quite a bit.
You see, boredom is the father of inspiration, but without inspiration there is no boredom... well there's no bad ideas either but everything needs it's dark side, yes even me. The whole god of chaos bit stemmed from one of my bad days, but that's a tale for another time.
You don't thing Celestia gets bored? Oh, haha, ooh don't make me laugh!
If anypony gets bored it's her, i mean can you picture having to run a nation for 1000 years on your own? There's a reason why she's been nicknamed Trollestia you know. Just last week she stuck a table fan, yes one of the spinney kind that sits on your desk, on a pedestal where that scorch mark is. She told Luna a fan of hers was waiting in the garden. Poor Luna was expecting a pony. Poor fan wasn't expecting a sudden lightning storm.
Ah the look on her face was priceless.
How do I know these things? My dear boy, have you not been listening? I've been very, very, very bored in the past and as such I've managed to figure out a way to pull off out of body, or in my case statue, experiences. I just drift about watching Canterlot's daily hustle and bustle, adding a dash of chaos every now and then just to liven things up.
No the castle furniture's recent reckless disregard for gravity isn't my doing, that's Luna exacting her revenge although I'll admit I may have helped out with the execution some.
Cruel joke? Hah, if I wanted to make a cruel joke I'd make the element of laughter turn her friends into cupcakes. No even I have a moral compass, although north isn't always the direction it points, it never is off so far as to land on south. I have never killed anypony directly, or knowingly indirectly. I just want to have some fun.
Oh... you heard about that did you... yes well that's not something I very proud of, free will is something I do not take pride in meddling with but you must understand that I was just trying to avoid another 1000 years of imprisonment, it get's awfully lonely here in the Canterlot gardens.
It's Equestria's most beautiful city, and it's second most populated but no one talks to each other, no one bothers to have fun, all the aristocrats have their heads shoved too far up their own backsides to be able to bring themselves to hold a conversation with what they consider common folk, and all the rest are too busy trying to become aristocrats. It's one vicious cycle.
Hmm... well looks like we'll have to cut it short today, seems like 'Tia is going to take a stroll through the gardens judging from the fact I can feel the presence of more guards. Off you go now, I'd hate to see the only pony who'll talk to me arrested for just being sociable.
Farewell until next time and have a good day yourself.

i write these when i a feeling philosophical, which admittedly tends to be when i'm tired out and unable to sleep.
......why this so good? Me like....wait a minute....the concept of philosophical discord seem so familiar to me
nah i'm just joking, this gives me a megusta face so I track
168158
i like your philosophical discord too, and sides unless we're directly ripping eachother off we can't have the same exact ideas since it's philosophy.
... someone should create a philosoraptor with discord instead...

My good mare, have you ever tried telling a ponie's gender from just their magic? it is rather difficult.
389680 YES! YES I HAVE!
I need to all the time!
AND I ALWAYS GET THEM RIGHT!!
I mean really being an Alicorn of my rank I need to know EVERYPONY!(Or every-thing ugh Slitheens) What about you Mr.Discord what are your accomplishments in life? Pouring hot tea on ponies? 
Or being socially rejected?

Interested in a job involving world domination? If so you're hired!
389890 SURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where do we start??* at this time Lightning Nova starts to cackle crazily* 
389906
The second i break free of this accursed stone prision...
use your magic
as you can see ive already started *looks at profile picture*
389925
Hmm... getting me free would require a little more... Chaos.
392548
you call three little school fillies chaos?
*Makes herself giant, goes to canterlot, knocks down the castle, and kicks Celestia in the plot* 
out yet? or does Lightning Nova need to slap a filly? *then I go let you out of your stone prison.*
Swag.
392573
*stone cracks and breaks* If anything the confusion of the guards was enough.
392589 you're such a softie, you need more chaos in your life. I would star talking philosopcaly to myself but im not letting that take over right now nor will I let about 15 others I mean the first ten would just be stupid! But the other 5 would make me go back to the mential hospitial.... And I can't go back there.
DISCORD get a hold of yourself ! You're supposed be the spirit of chaos! You're essentially harmless! 
We need more if we're going to take down Celestia's empire as you said LAYERS but those layers are hard and almost impossible to break! THINK DISCORD!
392648
Oh I have many many ideas on how to do so, however, the more you plan the more you fail. Chaos is so much better of a way to do things. *hovers over Nova's shoulder.* For example, watch and learn. *the stone that makes up the streets of Canterlot turns to quicksand
394223 Learn from you? HahahhaHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHhahahh!
I've been alive for more then 900 years and you want me to learn how to make chaos? You must be kidding.** engulfs canterlot in flames, bathing myself in fire and blood**
394251
It's a start, however, for true chaos one must take their time, use the fear of the unknown to your advantage. start off small, and then like a snowball rolling down a hill let things escalate into one grand finale.
Besides, burning flesh smell horrible.
394283 Burning flesh smells delicious!
I'm going to bake it in my cupcakes later!
And I know what you mean, about taking my time. When I got out, when I escaped 
I had to stick to the shadows for 100 years, 100 years. You have a chance for people to trust you, but not me they will never trust me. you're made for chaos, you are thre spirit of chaos! But I was born a normal pony but I trot a path that few have trot and I'll keep walking that path forever!
394353
Hah, trust me? even before I took over equestria ponies didn't trust me. Why would you trust a being born of chaos. I tried to be normal once, normal doesn't work when you look like me. Besides, what fun is there in being normal.
394368 hahahaha who said you need to be normal? But did you think of ever using your chaos for good? But I lied I wasn't born a pony I wasnt born on Equestria, I wasn't even born on EARTH! And I've seen things you wouldn't even be able to conjor up in your small little mind.
MY LIFE IS FULL OF DEATH AND DEMISE!
394368 Hugs? images.mylittlefacewhen.com/media/f/img/mlfw3732-1332085311994.png
so long as there's no knives involved *hugs back*
you know it's a good thing I'm relatively immune to cute, but that still nearly gave me diabetus.
