John is John Semmens, a FReeper for many years who writes great satire. A few years ago he was required by the PTB here at FR to put the word “satire” in his headers because some obtuse FReepers didn’t like “wasting their time” reading his work. Fact of the matter is, they were just embarrassed by their own gullibility.
Problem is, once the word is included in the header, the article looses its impact.

When I posted my #12, the spoiler word had not yet been added.

Thank you for that update, Roccus, but I would still like to know who is so humorless, or has such a low opinion of Freeper intelligence, that he felt the need to add "satire" at the front of the title/headline.

Seriously, dude?
