How often should woot give BOC’s?

Yes, I am already painfully aware of ‘The Secret: A Treasure Hunt’.

I have seen several specials on this book including Josh Gates searching for them…

I think the hidden boc idea is good. But logistically? Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…

If only there was a place to get a lot of tiny tracking devices in different colors with additional batteries.

Then we could follow them to their final location and hunt those people down with pitchforks and torches until they post their boc contents in the forums. As an additional incentive to comply we could make smores.

As have I. Unfortunately I do not live in those areas and I know I would quickly lose myself in a rabbit hole of research that I may never recover.

I didn’t realize so many of them were still out there…

From what I gathered on some of those folk’s forums, that some may be in places that have radically changed and been developed, or on now protected land.

But this is woot, where forums quickly go off on a tangent…or non-sequitur

FYI - I’m willing to hide the BOC(s) assigned for my location.

I’m pretty sure people would find Jimmy Hoffa before they find the ones I’ve hidden.

That’s been the case of practically every internet forum/discussion since the days of USENET.

Speaking of which:

Yakko: The sense of sight
Is what guides us right
When we go out on walks.
Wakko: The sense of smell’s
The way you tell
That you need to change your socks.
Dot : The sense of touch
Is what hurts so much
When you bang your toe on the bed.
Yakko: The sense of hearing is something good
'Cause if a tree falls in the wood
Would there be a sound? You bet there would
If it landed on top of your head
YW+D : Your head
If a tree lands on top of your head!

Wakko: The sense of taste
Affects your waist
Yakko: Which makes five senses in all.
Dot : There’s a sixth sense, too, but it’s hard to explain
It’s a psychic connection inside of your brain
So you can understand people like Shirley MacLaine
Yakko: Who wear crystals they bought in the mall
YW+D : The mall
Who wear crystals they bought in the mall!

Yakko: And now the other senses!

Dot : There are scents you can smell
Like cologne from Chanel
Or the scents of expensive perfume.
Yakko: There are scents of flowers
We hope overpowers
The kitty box next to your room.
Phew!
Wakko: There’s a sense of pride
You have deep down inside
Yakko: When you practice a sense of fair play.
Dot : There are dollars and cents that you pay at a toll
Yakko: Or the census man who is taking a poll
Wakko: And a sense of confusion; we’re out of control
YW+D : And they really should take us away
Away
They really should take us away!

Dot : There’s a sense of humor
A sense of doom, or
A sense of awe, sense of timing.
Yakko: The sense of a word
A sense of absurd
Like trying to do all this rhyming!
Dot : There’s incense
Wakko: And horse sense
Yakko: And common sense, it’s true.
Dot : Sense of wonder, sense of beauty
Wakko: Sense of honor, sense of duty
Yakko: A sense of doubt, a sense of danger
Dot : A sense of fear, when you meet a stranger
Wakko: A sense of style, a sense of worth
Yakko: A sense of direction for knowing the earth
YW+D : A sense of dread as we’re singing this song
That it’s starting to turn out completely all wrong
And it’s time that we end it because it’s too long
'Cause it just doesn’t make any sense
Nonsense
This song doesn’t make any sense!

Clown: When you want to scream
Put away that frown
And never be scared of a clown
Laugh on
Laugh on
Laugh on and on and on
You’ll never laugh alone!

Eh. I’ll make it easy:

Yakko : Let us introduce ourselves
O people of this land
Wakko : We are the Warner brothers
Dot : With sister close at hand.

Yakko : I bet you all are wondering
Who is this young unknown?
And why am I inheriting
The Anvilanian throne?

Men : Yes, why?
Women : Yes, why?
Crowd : Oh, please, please tell us why.

Yakko : The bottom of the family tree
Starts with Yakko; that is me.
I’m the cousin to the sister
Of son’s niece’s brother
Of the uncle’s daughter’s father
Of the nephew’s sister’s mother
And my grandpa’s only cousin
Was the King’s daughter’s sibling,
But they’re all gone,
Crowd : So that is why
Yakko : I am now your king!
Crowd : He is now our king!
Yakko : Yes, I am now your king!
Repeat what I just said!
Crowd : Repeat what I just said!
Yakko : And let the anvils ring!

(Anvil Chorus plays)

YW+D : Old King Yakko’s mania
(Anvils play “E-I-E-I-O”)
YW+D : Was for Anvilania!
(Anvils play “E-I-E-I-O”)

Yakko : So good citizens, I pledge to you
I’ll do the best that I can do
For honor, country and the king
Let the anvils ring!
Crowd : Let the anvils ring!
Yakko : Let the anvils ring!
Chorus: Let the anvils ring!

I tried to explain USENET to someone the other day. I don’t think I succeeded.

Oh wow. Histeria.

It’s been a while.

If I have to explain it nowadays, I’d say “it’s like Reddit but with fewer cats.”

(Reddit’s tagline is ‘Come for the cats , stay for the empathy’.)

So why’d they remove /r/narfcakeisacat?
