I love that LW has people publicly advocating for all sorts of fringe positions -

(Someone once commented that in one thread we'll describe common persuasive techniques as "dark arts", and in the next thread we'll bemoan that cutting off heads and freezing them so we can perform necromancy isn't more popular.)

- and someone is using the community throwaway account to give advice on ironing.

(I recognise that it's probably more "don't want to make an account" than "don't want to be identified". But still.)
