Alternately, prepare a 1000 word essay outlining your unique contributions to the W.O. thread with particular emphasis on the reasons you deserve to be hatted. Submit this essay to the plenary committee for approval no later than 21:00 UTC this Friday. Upon approval of your application (unlikely) an extensive set of one on one interviews will commence, followed in due course by the, rather degrading, initiation ceremonies.
If you survive the ceremonies (again unlikely) your application will be forwarded to comrade Homer for execution, or not, at his whim.
