$40 million to figure out Brian doesn't actually live in St. Petersburg?

Duckies.... This article sounds like this is basically something new for us here in the USA!

Odds are we have had something loosely like that, and the new monies
hides how freeform cyberspace basically is. Often it's easy to create a
multiplicity of identities, admin hates it when this is done on a posting
board or forum. If a poster/troll is stilted and self contradicting, or into
a predictable groupthink, they can be spotted. Tacitly, is this monies for
something that is informal and rather like a hobby, a past tense if you will?

We should have a jobs section where this thread could be posted.

This might end up highlighting the obvious.
They are not looking for new talent, I feel.

Zippy gets a new office?

If it's a farm, he had better be careful he doesn't get planted.

Just look at our brave boys in uniform. That's Zippy on the bottom far right, instructing our pizza-faced soldiers of tomorrow.

Good thing they're wearing camo, so they can blend in.

Looks like we might actually get some more Zippies on RPF. Don't they know by now that when you increase the quantity there are diminishing returns and eventually you completely devalue Zippy and Zippy is no longer credible anymore? Do you guys want Zippy to be a joke? Do you want Zippy to be the laughing stock of the world? If the whole world laughs at us enough we will have to go to war with it, because they hate us for our Zippies.
