If you haven't looked at ED:LULZ in a while, now is a great time to catch up.
Flying Spaghetti Monster
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
The Flying Spaghetti Monster is a fictional deity invented by self-satisfied atheists to make fun of religion. It was funnier when it was called the Invisible Pink Unicorn, but not by much.
[edit] History
When some zealots in Kansas decided to start teaching "intelligent design" in school, some guy thought it would be funny to write a letter asking the government to also teach his religion, which he called the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. While moderately humorous at face-value, it soon lost its lulz after militant atheists latched onto it and started coming up with hi-larious puns.
[edit] The atheists kill the lulz
Self-declared "Pastafarians" (I told you the puns were hilarious) cling to the idea of a flying spaghetti-monster in hopes of pwning Jesus-lovers everywhere. However, running around the internets saying things like "Thank FSM!" or "Ramen, brother!" hasn't impressed anyone.
Richard Dawkins started using the Flying Spaghetti Monster as a serious argument, so now the Rational Response Squad and every other random atheist group does as well. Theologians have speculated that a sense of humor may be a God-given endowment, which would explain why atheists lack it.
