I wonder what that’s originally from. I don’t think I’ve seen the ur-source: I remember Terry Pratchett doing it with ‘Ankh-Morpork,’ but I think he was pulling it from something else. So much of culture is like that, really: scrap-memes, glittering in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate…
ANYWAY. I have a Patreon! It fuels my ability to self-publish! It needs more Patrons! It’s only a buck, so convince all your friends to get a new short story every month! Buy war bonds! …Sorry, was doing it again.
