I remember thinking, years ago, that this would infiltrate mainstream media at some point. I remember thinking that it would be funny if it did. The actuality of it makes me wish for a global extinction event. What do you think, dearest ilxors?

"WTF" I have noticed on the cover of "Heat" magazine a couple of times - "Cheryl's tummy is overhanging her tight trousers when she leans over WTF WTF OMG hold the front page OMG" ok it didn't say that exactly but that seemed to be the gist of it.
