I'm a newbie. I understand inside jokes. They can be funny for awhile, when the thread isn't a serious one. But I too find it infantile on this forum. Especially when 75% of the posts are these same stupid jokes, over and over again. It makes it really difficult to scan through the thread for the real news. Signal to noise ratio is quite high most of the time - quite irritating.

"Signal to noise ratio is quite high most of the time - quite irritating."

A high S/N ratio is a GOOD thing...like 65-70db. Lots of signal above the noise floor.

Anyone have a link to the origins of the "shower" part of the FR lexicon?
