Talking Petition to increase Took's shit-posting

By as much as 200% if necessary. We can discuss the potential impact of shit-posting shitflation, but all models demonstrate a lack of both posts and shit on Netphoria.

What we need is a formal guide to mimicking Took's posting style because you can never really have enough of the exact same thing after all:
1. Treat threads like private messaging or a chat room, engaging in one-on-one conversations with single users that are unlikely to interest others;
2. Employ repetition as a tool designed to "meme-ify" concepts much like a sitcom character with a catchphrase; and
3. Elevate obscure users, ideally through the use of Item #2 in conjunction with the development of a sort of "fan fiction" relating to them.

What did I miss?

That's one signature from buzzard on the petition.

Confirmed: buzzard and duovamp don't appreciate the sonic stylings of Milli Vanilli.

When I first saw this thread I thought it read "Petition to increase Took's hobbit."

I see Buzzard contributed a post to this thread.

I gave up reading it after the third word.

Did you make it through "buzzard What we" or "What we need"?

This is important.

Exclamation

I know this is some kind of a clever, ironic joke of yours, but you really should be careful what you wish for, srsly or not.

4. Tell low-brow jokes ironically, distinguished from low-brow jokes told unironically not through any internal attributes of the joke, the context of the joke, or the history of the joke-teller but only through the assertion that "I'm being ironic" when reception of the joke is not as enthusiastic as desired.

5. Seek validation through self-deprecation, treating self-awareness of flaws as an acceptable alternative to correcting them.

A helpful mnemonic:

T.E.E.T.S.

how can you credit Tookus for the survival of this almighty shrine to Our Lord Corgan when he hasn't even ever heard a single track off Monuments to Elephants?

I hope that it's apparent that my post came from a place of love, as evidenced by me paying tribute to Took by employing some of the core tenets of T.E.E.T.S.
