    This intro reminds me of a Stones song.

    Nice to meet you. Hope you guess my name.

    So how does a proclaimed newb "just coming across this website" get this reference?

    Shottie has been creating a style guide 3.0 that might have given it away.

    Nice to know someone reads the instruction manual before plugging in.

    LOL. Yeah, because the natural first instinct of one stumbling on a new website is to dig for and study the style guide.

    I'm here every fucking day. I'm embarrassed by how much time I've spent here. I've never seen a Shottie style guide. But you think Mr. "just come across" newbie has?

    Well, to be honest, that’s exactly what I did in 2011-12. I lurked for about 8 months, and during that time I found the other two style guides (one by Diabeetus), which was like finding the SJ Rosetta Stone for inside jokes here.

    Ok, I see the “just coming across this website” comment as a potential lie. Now I see your point, @Stoney.

    Stoney might be sniffing out a sock puppet.

    Has there ever been an official sock puppet roster with AKAs? Don't know if that would count as outing.

    Lol when Tahoe was brought up as something I needed to know, I typed it in the search bar at the top. Took about 30 seconds to realize it had something to do with being 15 min away. It wasn’t hard.

    I think the "The" is a bit presumptuous.
