Howl will probably get the most out of this. CNO and LMNO should see it too because I'm a fucking sadist.

"I am that worst of all type of criminal...I cannot bring myself to do what you tell me, because you told me."

There's over 100 of us in this meat-suit. You'd think it runs like a ship, but it's more like a hundred and ten angry ghosts having an old-school QuakeWorld tournament, three people desperately trying to make sure the gamers don't go hungry or soil themselves, and the Facilities manager weeping in the corner as the garbage piles high.

What's Poe's Law?

Poe's Law is an adage of Internet culture stating that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, it is impossible to create a parody of extreme views so obviously exaggerated that it cannot be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of the views being parodied.

I was on that forum when Poe was there. Poe was awesome. The evolution forum was great, it was an isle of sanity there.

It's also where I learned of fstdt.com. But that site is not really funny anymore, what with the everything now.
