This is a funny joke, but I wish there was a rule about introducing the theme of contemporary US politics/culture wars in threads where they are not already present. It seems to serve as high-vcass flamebait. (I know there is already a rule about metaposting to complain about rules, please consider this well-intentioned civil disobedience.)

    I find humor to be a welcome breath of fresh air in a room full of stale hot air. I reject the view that this forum has to be a dry meeting of the minds.
