Given that Dan Harmon apparently reads TVTropes "pretty religiously", I assume it's a deliberate reference.

This was originally written in reply to your comment below about telling other authors about your poor experience here:

Dr. Brin, I respect that you have been treated more poorly than any of us would like to see, and I truly appreciate the time you spent here... but could I ask that you refrain from expressing your very legitimate dissatisfaction with your experience here in a way that will impact the readers? We did everything we could to make your AMA successful, and while our moderators did a very poor job of, well, doing their job, I honestly believe that such events are rare. The truth is, we need more individuals like you, not fewer.

From a rational and self-interested perspective, even if a high end estimate of 1 out of 10 AMAs were trapped in the spam filter for hours as yours was, would the risk of "wasting" a few hours outweigh the potential benefit of exposure to 150,000 people or 10% of the subreddit's subscribers? And I would argue that your time here has not been wasted, even if you have been disappointed in your expectations.

I'll certainly add my voice to yours in communicating my displeasure at your treatment to the mods, but please don't do anything to reduce our access to intelligent individuals like yourself!

Do you play for dance classes? What makes a class especially challenging?

You've made a lot of fantastic and fantastical costumes... Have you ever designed a costume that just would not look the way you wanted it to, or one that was so fragile it kept falling apart during shooting?

What do you like to see when you watch burlesque/cabaret?
