Once you’ve been a member of BB long enough, there are certain aspects of this site that are just a given.
For instance, it is known that whiny, nitpicky complaints about the site, the staff or general content will inevitably garner a sarcastic response asking:
“Are you disappointed?”
So since I’m bored, I’ve decided to start yet another new game:
What other constants about the site are ‘known?’ All responses should start out with that phrase.
For instance:
It Is Known that Cory Doctorow’s posts are often very hyperbolic, especially in the title.
(And complaining about it endlessly won’t change that.)
It Is Known that Rob’s shoops require having Eye Bleach at the ready, should you be brave/foolish enough to hazard taking a look.
It Is Known that any mentions of bananas will cause someone to exclaim “Just look at it!”
It is known that the reason @Falcor was hired as moderator is that luck dragons eat trolls. Antinous had been burying them under the flowerbed out back, and we were running out of room.
It Is Known that I’m concerned you haven’t capitalized a sufficient number of words in your contribution, and The Children might be unduly influenced by your poor example.
Well, it’s known now, anyway.
Ahem. Rerailing now:
It Is Known that the safe has been opened, it contained nothing but stale air and flakes of rust, and Rob will never, ever admit it.
