There’s not really anything to know. It was a hoax, just like the idea that the OK hand symbol means “White Power.” Same type of hoax, same source.
Q was total BS from the beginning, and honestly anyone who believes that it’s anything but total BS really is not a smart person and should consider always wearing a helmet when walking around outside, for safety’s sake.
Found some articles quickly; thanks again.
I love mysteries, but seeing some of the ‘q drops’ I was more like ‘what the frig’? Now my interest is more into how the whole phenomenon snowballed and is still around. Might still be saying ‘what the frig’ by the end.
