My friend Fay once described the birth of an Internet community as such:
Person A: (Sheepishly) I… I kinda like to wear rubber gloves on my head and pretend to be a chicken. Sometimes. Er, for a laugh. You know?
Person B: I do that every weekend.
Person C: I’m wearing a rubber glove on my head RIGHT NOW and it’s fucking great! Those non-rubber-glove-wearers (henceforth to be called NGRW) don’t know what they’re missing!
Person A: Yeah!
Person B: Let’s set up our own forum at World Crossing.

That’s amazing. You know why? Because I LOVE wearing a rubber glove on my head and pretending to be a chicken.
