15. Well, possibly. There ARE a few of them who carry the 'humor' gene, y'know.
That may be the FReep-equivalent of a DUer who forgot to
use the :sarcasm: smiley.

(Bearing in mind, of course, that the FR site doesn't even
support "smileys" in the first place. It's totally 'PRE-smiley'
technology....the stuff of LEGEND!

And in THIS case...
"LEGEND" has it that the original FR "Template SiteWare"
was on a 5-inch floppy that came free with a magazine one
of RimJob's neighbors subscribed to, circa 1993.

Over the years, those who believe this have divided into two main camps:
The "Early Risers", who claim that he found it because of his habit
of "borrowing" his neighbor's more interesting mail,
{
A rapidly-growing EarlyRiser SubSect believes that RJ
had forgotten his glasses when he went out to paw through
the neighborhood mailboxes that morning, and mistook the magazine
for a photo-heavy "male bodybuilding" publication.}
and the "Garbage-Day Adventists", who point to the fact that the subscriber
was an IT Professional as PROOF that RimJob found the floppy disk in the man's
garbage can, 3 days after the magazine was delivered.)
