the curse of the flairvoyant

the bunny, being a pleb, has no access to flairs.  however he is confused by them.

as can be seen, a flair can look like the closed account symbol. @ilovesmetuna is actually closed while @cricketrulzok is not.  the bunny's also seen flairs that look like the mod/staff pawn.  this can lead to impersonation.  times are a changing ...

looks like the mod-like flair has been taken away.

Well unlike our newly resident cheese boy who denies being cheese, he seems to be accepting that he is bacon. Who's to say?

too bad zeppelin's "flair" was stealing music. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/led-zeppelins-10-boldest-rip-offs-223419/

"Borrowed" as many artists do. Spirit's Taurus class was lost, although is being re-heard apparently.

More flair - not bad for mid-to-late 60's rockers (at the time 2012, now in their 70's). . .

FLAIR!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PD-MdiUm1_Y
