There are so far 25 comments (08/11/2018) and already 9 counts of the word i-d-i-o-t.

While the vote tally gives "I am an idiot" more than a third of the votes, and to "they just keep finding better idiots [than me presumably]" only a twentieth of the votes.

I have for a few minutes contemplated if this site was instead called PoliceMonks, BankMonks or even SportfanMonks, each founded by and dedicated to the corresponding, namesake group of fellow human beings. It looks to me that the count of "I am an idiot" would be an absolute zero.

p.s. In escaping an open-square-bracket I used [. Lazy to look the reference again, I guessed that \ would be its closing counterpart. But I guessed wrong, it is ]. Someone is an idiot.
