You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

What is even happening?
Do we have room for "Rules & Etiquette" instead of "Rules/Etiquette"? In this case, the slash implications are disturbing even to me.Has anyone checked amy's Buffista Passport, lately? It's like I don't even know her.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
It's the incest squick. I'll note that I have nothing against, say, Etiquette/Grammar.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Jon, I can easily sit down and squash Rules and Etiquette into one Don't Do That! Do That Other Thing! document. I remember with the first draft of the lawspeak there was a lot of redundancy we cut out, so it would basically be putting the redundancy back in again and reinserting it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
msbelle's currently working on assembling the votes results into a rules document -- prefacing that with a "how we vote" seems sensical. I think rolling the etiquette into that is a bit much, though. A lot of stuff.

So are we also good at doing the same thing again and again?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wait. The Rules should be WAY less prominent than the Etiquette. People need to not be assholes every day, but hardly anyone has to put forth a proposal.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
What jesse said, and not just to be redundant.
