What is even happening?

Jesse, what's your platform?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Everyone wins!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Tiny Buffista flags for everyone!

No Consensus is the consensus not a waste!

plants flag firmly in Jesse's corner, the corner of No Consensus

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Come on, David, the people LOVE No consensus. Live it, love it.

27 just seems like such a juicy number, ripe with possibilities. "No Consensus" displays a failure of imagination. (and consensus. Except for the people who have consensed upon "No Consensus" which is a kind of self-negating loop.)

Ah, but you're missing the inherent Buffista beauty of No consensus. With No consensus, you can remain secure in your knowledge that your chosen title was the One True Natter 27 Title, and everyone else is just crackpots.

And yet? No Consensus leads the race.

(that's in response to Hec, who is refusing to be won over to my side. Sheesh.)

I'm with Hec. And I'd like to see some play on the 3 x 3 x 3 or 3 cubed ideas.

Ann, that's a ferret.

27 just seems like such a juicy number, ripe with possibilities.

It's 3 cubed, which we used at WX (which doesn't stop us from using here, just seems -- redundant).

But I can't think of anything else. Hec, what did you have in mind?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

There was a kind of consensus about the one like "Didn't we already do the three squared one before?" (however that was phrased)

The best "27" reference we could come up with is just a reference to a previously used thread title.

Plus, "No consensus" is a gentle reminder that sometimes we fail.
