The "Five Pillars of Islam" were invented by competing Arabic warlords in the process of creating their new religion from an older, Christian sect. In time, these groups would be known as "Sunni" and "Shia."

Athlete #1: "I can't believe I didn't even make it up to the top ten... Worst thing is, I've been stuck with the Vancouver's fourth pillar problem"
Athlete #2: "Yeah VFPP happens to all of us, don't worry with that, it will pass!"

Get the Slippery Pillarmug. An assymetrical survival horror game on Roblox created by The_BladeNinja and others. In here, a player spawns either as a Survivor or a Monster (The Killer role in this game). The Survivor has to survive from Monsters and do various objectives (which are depended on the map), while the Monster has to kill every single Survivor on the round and use various abilities. The Monsters themselves are incredibly popular pop culture characters (Such as Baldi, EXE/Faker, Ao Oni etc.) or original characters (For example Vapor or Valem). Surprisingly enough, Pillar Chase 2 has one of the kindest and chillest communities ever despite being a Roblox game.
