I can’t explain how it is that I have never looked up “FNORD” before. It showed up on the whiteboard in our office break room a few weeks ago and I kept telling myself to go look it up (seeing as how I’m endlessly curious about odd words and their origins). But I always forgot about it by the time I got back to my desk.

Then today, I saw it in the sidebar of Ghosty’s blog. So I looked it up right away. Turns out it’s been around for ages! How could it be that I never noticed it before? The only explanation that makes sense is that I was brainwashed by the Illuminati!! They conditioned me to subconsciously ignore the word!!

So why can I see it now? Isn’t it obvious? I’ve attained enlightenment and overcome the Illuminati’s brainwashing.

(If you don’t know what FNORD is all about, then you’ve probably not reached my level of mental superiority. Keep trying… or just google it. *wink*)
