Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.

For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/

I won't be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.

This is like congratulating Don Quixote for killing all the dragons.

It's congratulating Don Quixote for trying to preserve chivalric code, no matter how misguided it may be, with the result being better than what you'd think at first glance.

Cervantes actually didn't like the concept of chivalry and was considering a "companion" novel where he depicts chivalry as it really was. It's pretty unfortunate that he never wrote it because I'm sure it would have been a classic.
