    Conspiracy theories are headcanons for real life.

    Page View Phenomena:
    • A thread less than 2/3 of a page long is less likely to get read if the topic creator is displayed as having the last post.

    • If the only two posts of the thread are the first post, and the topic creator posting again to wonder why no one else has posted anything, the probability of anyone else posting in the thread immediately drops to less than 1%.

    • A thread's page views will skyrocket shortly after its second page begins.
    • Page Views of very long threads will continue to skyrocket, though the rate of new posts in the threads will drop.

    • A thread will get an abysmal rate of new page views if it still has 0 replies after a set time of being created, usually around a day, but varying depending on the forum's activity level, being as short as hours or minutes for highly active ones.

    Idea: Romantic Comedy 1x1 but instead of playing the two prospective lovers we play the main male character and his snarky friend who gives good advice that he won't follow.

    I'm the snarky friend.

    It is. But also there's a love square where the main female character has a crush on the main male character's civilain identity but not on his super hero identity and he has a crush on her super hero identity but not on her civilian identity.

    • CAD's Theorem of Topic Closure: A clear, well thought-out, well-written post is less likely to receive a reply than a poor post, because it leaves less to be said. The post may even appear to bring the conversation to a screeching halt. However, if it is a topic written by a member of the Old Guard, it is likely to be enshrined in legend. Any replies to it, mind, are likely to be completely ignored. Also see: Implonkus

    In D&D the onky skill you really need is bluff. Train your bluff high enough and you can bluff reality.

    Basically the only mlp related media I consume anymore meaning I have no idea what's happening sometimes. But since it's large parts D&D jokes and sight gags I can live with that.

    • "FIRST POST!":
      • In any "response to a new installment of something" thread, there is 74.3% chance that the first post will include the poster stating that they got the first post. At least half the time, the post will consist only of the "I got the first post!" comment, and nothing of any use.
      • Corollary: On more popular sites, the first five to ten posts will consist of the above, either by posters who aimed for the first post but missed, or continuing the chain by posting "second!" "third!" and so on.

    • Corollary 4: In threads that have a limit on how many comments can be posted to one thread, such as in MiiVerse, getting the "last post" has the same prestige as getting the first (which is to say none at all, but it won't stop posters from trying).

    That’s basically my pick up line, I’d walk up to the person of interest and make that noise and smile.
    If they got the reference it all worked, if they didn’t they wouldn’t be worth the time anyway.

    • Diversity Obliviousness Phenomenon:
      • A new user whose first language is not English is usually automatically assumed to be a "noob" who is too lazy to type coherently.
      • Any non-native speaker who apologizes in advance for their English will have a better command of the language than at least 60% of the forum posters.

    I think I've actually gotten fairly good at telling when someone isn't good at English, when they have issues that prevent their typing correctly (such as dyslexia and other things) and when they just can't be bothered. I hope I have, at least, because that third type really bugs me.

    "Behold! The Soggy-Inator! You see, Perry the Platypus. When I was a young boy all my food was always soggy. And it didn't matter what the food was. Like, it would be a pizza and it would be soggy which makes sense. But then, it would be a hard boiled egg and it would be soggy and that makes absolutely zero sense at all. And what's worse is that my brother Roger's food was always in perfect condition! Now, I plan to rectify that! With this device I shall render soggy all the food in the TRI-STATE AREA AHAHAHAHAH!"

    its surprising how entertaining that show is, considering how it follows the same fucking formula literally every episode and is as linear as taking a shit.

    The_Omega_Effect The_Omega_Effect it probably helps that you don’t really go in expecting progress or anything of the sort from that show. Like when what they are selling is so blatantly the formula, I think it makes it more tolerable.

    Funny thing that my little sister actually had trouble understanding the concept of a flip phone.

    “It opens and closed, not like turning on and off (well that too) but by like twisting and it had actual keys, like a keyboard...”

    I'm sorry that I casually suggested that the French peasants just revolt. I didn't think they'd actually do it.

    I'm sorry that I used ventriloquism on that snake to tell Eve to eat the apple. I thought it was hilarious at the time but now... here we are.

    I'm sorry for shooting JFK. I just wanted to start a nerf war and didn't realise it was an actual gun until it was too late.

    I'm sorry for spreading rumors about witches in Salem. It was supposed to be a joke. I didn't think people would take it that far.

    I'm sorry I didn't cry when Balder died, thus forstalling his resurrection and dooming him to an eternal life in Hel. I was kind of offended that Frigg had mistaken me for a woman (and a giant). At least it was easy to blame Loki for it.

    I'm sorry that I asked the Unicorns if they could go back and quickly find my wallet for me before boarding Noah's Arc. It turns out it was in my pocket the whole time and now an entire species is dead.
