A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
Watched this on Youtube earlier:

It's about the history of Something Awful and Lowtax. Thought some might find it interesting.

For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is John Galt? This is John Galt speaking. I am the man who loves his life. I am the man who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the man who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are peris

Get a room, you two.
