    The Simpsons are real footage

    I feel like the tier placement is random, like apparently "professional sports scripted" is more obscure than "goat men", and "operation paperclip" is occult and something very few people have heard of.

        Yeah sure I'm not taking it seriously. I would add that there's both "24-hour year" (tier 5) and "1 day isn't 24 hours" (tier 8). Seems redundant if you've already learned that was the case 3 tiers ago.

        I also like "Eggless travel" and "90% of books are written by the same author". Also there's one that's just "OoO".

        "There are no forests (mountains are trees)" (tier 5) but also "forest stairs" (tier 8) and "trees are mammals" (tier 9)

          I think both the 24-hour ones are time cube references, which elevates this shitpost to legendary status

          Eggless travel is surely a reference to Ong's hat and the diamensional egg.

            I didn't know about that, that's cool. But I hardly think the ability to travel without the use of a dimensional egg is noteworthy.

              The point is to travel dimensionally, to alternate universes. The egg (a type of sensory deprivation chamber supposedly created by some Berkley physicists tripping on acid in the 60s who then went missing.) lets you do it via a series of meditative rituals.

              Eggless travel would allow dimensional travel just by thinking the rituals.

              God I wish i hadn't grown up on USENET.

      It probably isn't. It seems to deliberately put proven theories in deeper tiers, and there's a suspiciously large number of nazi esotericism in the entry-level tiers.
