Ooooo. It's not a Turing Test. It's a Breaching Experiment! How thrilling! Every year,LBO gets new members who join up and initially feel like outsiders. Sometimes, they are defensive and dicky. Sometimes, they are defensive and overly obsequious. But always, they see themselves as observers of a group to which they don't (yet) belong. Happens all the time and eventually, they forget they are outsiders and ther's a magic point at which they become insiders, seeing themselves as part of the gang,etc. Happens all the time. Yay! Fresh Meat!
But it is very very rare that anyone calls what they're doing noble. This is so exciting!
