infrequently asked questions
Who is that man?
You. Me. Anyone looking bemusedly for truth in the city.
What’s up with the groovy background pattern?
Paisley prints have been (over)analyzed as a stylistic cooptation of the yin-yang. That symbol represents opposing yet complementary dual forces within a single entity, which, wouldn’t you know it, is a major motif in Urban Trappistry.
Is Trappistry really the correct declension for the Trappist lifestyle?
I have a degree in English. That may mean I am generally unemployable, but it means I can use any suffix anywherely.
What are you doing these days?
Sorry, but you need to direct that query to the TFAQ page (Too Frequently Asked Questions).
Can I join?
Yes. Well, maybe. The initiation progress is rigorous, hilarious, and soon-to-be posted. It involves funzone points, art crimes, a driving test, and beer. (Definitely in that order for the last two.)
Why did you do this?
I don’t know. Why did I do this or this or this? At least now I have the excuse of tradition.
What’s up with the bizarre pictures?
Him who has eyes, let him see.
What is the best beer country?
Belgium, then the US. Be quiet; you’re wrong.
Is this the best site in the universe?
No.
