Congratulations, good luck keeping this rabble under control! 🎉

Make sure to take care of the wankers!

Congratulations! How bad was the hazing process?
- Pretty bad, they made me fight an albatross-sized emperor with nothing but bread rolls.

It's time to quiz the new admin.
Would you rather fight one emperor sized albatross, or an albatross sized emperor?
- Albatross sized emperor, it would be madness to pick a fight with a large bird. Those things are vicious.
  
  Good answer. You receive +1 admin point 😁
  Thanks for helping out keeping a normalised normality normal. 👍🏻
  
  They can break a man's arm, you know

Nice. I'm ready for rapid overwhelming normalcy
- Move fast and carry on!

Initiation ceremony is in the Coach and Horses pub in Doncaster at 3pm tomorrow. Bring your scalpels.
- ooh £2.00 shots

Congratulations!
How many flamingos are you? What’s your collective noun?
- At least 4 at any time and apparently the collective noun for flamingos is 'flamboyance'.
  
  Hang on there, you’re not even a flock? Just at least four flamingos in a trench coat? I knew it.

Most important question for your future planning for the instance:
Would you rather stub your toe every day for a year, or get kicked in the chest once by a horse?
- I'm a fairly clumsy person, so I basically already stub my toe everyday.
  
  Good answer! You've got my, entirely unnecessary, approval.

Congratulations. And may I just say I have always been your most ardent supporter.

Do you, as per a book my child has, turn a different colour if you eat food other than those coloured pink?
- Yeah, it's why I keep a pack of pink wafers on my ~~person~~ bird at all times.
- Can flamingoes be colours other than pink and white? If they consume a bunch of Jello or Kool Aid, can they turn blue or green?
  
  I direct you to this book! https://www.worldofbooks.com/en-gb/products/glamingo-book-sam-samson-9781789584813?price=3.80

I'm sorry for your British, hope they find a cure

Is there nothing flamingos can do?
- They can certainly do nothing.

Excellent, I can reuse the vetting procedure. Please state what you call a bread roll and if anyone disagrees then you can't be in charge anymore.
- I just looked up a map of bread roll names. I generally feel there are few wrong answers (perhaps because I've lived in different parts of the UK and had to change like a chameleon to.fit in), except "morning roll".
  
  A 'morning roll' is kind of a different thing from your standard issue 'bread roll', though - bit more robust on the outside, which makes it better for containing hot food on the go. Kind of the opposite of a brioche, which is a waste of bread if I've ever seen it.
  
  "Morning roll" sounds like the work of replicants. Or possibly just toilet paper.
- Baps, though I've heard those six-fingered savages across the river call them cobs‽
