**Annie-Xmas** votes religiously. Which means she only goes out to vote on occasional Sundays, every now and then, to keep up appearances. She wonders why people complain about the lines.

Annie X-mas spends all of her days hanging out at City Hall and at crime scenes trying to photo-bomb news photos. That’s so so sad.

Many People believe that Kenobi 65 is a Star Wars fan, while the name is just a coincidence. He has, in fact, never watched a single Star Wars movie except for Solo, and he only went into that theater because he thought it was a documentary about his favorite women’s soccer goalkeeper. He has, however, watched each and every episode of Star Trek TNG about three times.

When creating their user name, **Go\_Arachnid\_Laser** took spiders “with fricking laser beams on their heads” and “turned it up to eleven” by the simple application of an exciting 2-letter verb.

Little did they know that they also stole my (copyrighted) cheer for that scrappy high school team, the Springfield Arachnoid Lasers.

Go Arachnoid Lasers!
