4. BaconofWar chose his name after the Bay of Pigs Invasion. It is also notable that his posting parallels the outcome of the Bay of Pigs Invasion (which was a complete failure).

Ouch, that was harsh but also amusing. This post was not a complete failure. There was a blog post earlier today basically attacking Idra and EG, and had to be closed by mods. Not great, but it could be worse.
