Seems like submitting boring Erlang stories immediately turned into a meme.

First one on HN?



First one I remember, anyway.

As much as I like being pompous and saying HN should try not to go into decline, this one I'm happy about. It was all a joke on PG, it had a terrific effect on the stories here in a way that was instantly noticeable here, and it was actually pretty funny.

Now we just make sure this fades quickly enough that a month from now nobody thinks they're "trendy" for mentioning Erlang Week.
