Many an innocent bystander passing through here, asking “what is this sublem about?” I think this question deserves to be escalated to the highest level. What are the chinesium turnbuckles that tenuously hold this rusty, fraying cable to the next cable? What holds up the saggy clothesline that is NCD? What keeps us from becoming just another 4chan, living off the dusty HWNDU laurels of former days? Where was Gondor when the Westfold fell?

    *Community, this isn’t Reddit, there are no “Sublemmys”. This place has been around for 3 years, and as refugees we shouldn’t try to change established norms.

        Finally, some good fucking prose in reply. Gratitude. It’s no NATO astronaut ballad about Three Gorges, but it’ll do.

      Don’t worry, I won’t tell anybody else what to call a bunch of delegates, Leopard obsessers and aerophiliacs, the ur-text is quite safe.

    NATO Astronaut 1: It never gets old, huh?

    NATO Astronaut 2: Nope.

    Astronaut 1: It kinda makes you want to…

    Astronaut 2: Break into a song?

    Astronaut 1: Yep.

    I think that planefuckers should be friends with gunfuckers.
