Poe's law
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Poe's law, named after its author Nathan Poe,[1] is an Internet adage reflecting the idea that without a clear indication of the author's intent, it is difficult or impossible to tell the difference between an expression of sincere extremism and a parody of extremism.[2]

The law and its meaning Poe's law, in broader form, states:

Without a blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of extremism or fundamentalism that someone won't mistake for the real thing.[3]

The core of Poe's law is that a parody of something extreme, by nature, becomes impossible to differentiate from sincere extremism. A corollary of Poe's law is the reverse phenomenon: sincere fundamentalist beliefs can be mistaken for a parody of those beliefs.[3]

History[edit]
The statement called Poe's law was formulated in 2005 by Nathan Poe on the website christianforums.com in a debate about creationism. The original sentence read:

Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is utterly impossible to parody a Creationist in such a way that someone won't mistake for the genuine article.[4]

The sentiments expressed by Poe date back much earlier – at least to 1983, when Jerry Schwarz, in a post on Usenet, wrote :[5]

8. Avoid sarcasm and facetious remarks.
Without the voice inflection and body language of personal communication these are easily misinterpreted. A sideways smile, :-), has become widely accepted on the net as an indication that "I'm only kidding". If you submit a satiric item without this symbol, no matter how obvious the satire is to you, do not be surprised if people take it seriously.

Another precedent posted on Usenet dates to 2001. Following the well-known schema of Arthur C. Clarke's third law, Alan Morgan wrote:[6]

What's the point of stop masturbation? To save sperm cells from dying out on sheets? That makes sense. But the millions of sperm cells that are released with the average ejaculation cannot all become offspring anyway, even if they're released during heterosexual vaginal intercourse. So how do we save those millions of sperm cells that are released into the vagina but who fails to be the one who fertilizes the egg?
We need to invent some kind of vacuum contraption to suck the sperm right out of her and instantaneously seperate the cells into individuals and insert it into a million other women.

One small side effect would be (assuming a succesful birthrate at 100%) a world population so large that we'll literally be standing on each other in so many layers that we'll start floating off into space, within a few decades. But I suppose that's just god's will....

Somebody slap me.

Prostate cancer actually used to be called "priest's disease" in medieval Europe because it so often occurred in younger or middle age men who denied all sexual release of any kind.

I wonder if they are a registered charitable organization that can issue receipts?

And me thinks that this Bono (the author of the article) is only slightly less famous than the other Bono most have heard about.

Well considering I shave the palms of my hands twice daily because of my pastime entertainments, I wouldn't be too quick to strike this one. As shocking as it may seem....


And yes Londoner, that was humor and wordplay too....
