RATIONALISTS SAY ALL THE THINGS!
Solomonoff prior gives you 50%, that's pretty cool! :D
I hope someone will use Alicorn's (and other) quotes to make a good Eliza-bot. This could be an interesting AI challenge -- write a bot that will get positive karma on LW! If there are more bots, the bot with highest nonzero karma wins.
the bot with the highest nonzero karma wins I'm taking bets: how long after the bots start maximizing karma until the form is tiled with /~\

I assume everyone has run across at least one of the "Shit X's Say" format of videos? Such as Shit Skeptics Say. When done right it totally triggers the in-group warm-fuzzies. (Not to be confused with the nearly-identically formatted "Shit X's Say to Y's" which is mainly a way for Y's to complain about X's).
What sort of things do Rationalists often say that triggers this sort of in-group recognition which could be popped into a short video? A few I can think of...

I like to think I’d do that, but I don’t fully trust myself. I am running on corrupted hardware after all.
I want to be with you, and I don’t foresee that changing in the near future.
…Bayesian statistics…
So Omega appears in front of you…
What would you say the probability of that event is, if your beliefs are true?
Others?
