If its use was facetious, Poe's Law definitely applies here. Since you don't find mysticism helpful, that's one thing. If you found it triggering, that's another.

>If its use was facetious, Poe's Law definitely applies here. Since you don't find mysticism helpful, that's one thing. If you found it triggering, that's another. Absolutely. Although Poe's Law seems to apply to pretty much anything that's not tide charts or ASCII tables. I was going to say sunrise/sunset times, but I was afraid of annoying the flat-earthers.[0] [0] For those of you without a sense of humor, cf. Poe's Law[1].

  I could make a Bill O'Reilly tide chart that marks its columns with "Tide goes in" and "tide goes out"* I'd brand it with pictures of Bill O' Reilly, his show's colour scheme, and inspirational quotes. This tide chart could seem to be a legitimate homage to him, or an elaborate humorous poke. *You can't explain that!

    >"Tide goes in" and "tide goes out"* Shouldn't that be "knife goes in, guts come out. That's what Osaka Seafood Concern is all about"?[0] Just sayin...

      I was referring to this meme. EDIT: I meant to post this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzkRHFl2ppw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZzkRHFl2ppw I love Osaka and I love seafood. Nothing to be concerned about.

        Unsurprisingly (well, at least to me), I was unfamiliar with the video you posted. Can a five and a half minute video be a "meme"? I didn't get as far as your quote, but I'll take your word that it's fabulous. Thanks for sharing it with me! I dig seafood a lot too. Never been to Osaka, but I understand it's a nice city. I was referring to the company loyalty song at (the purely imaginary, I'm sure) Osaka Seafood Concern. Well, at least according to Matt Groening, et. al.
