Can't say I get it, unless you are referring to her massive manjaw which comes out in the second photograph.

Also just ignore Samwise. Everyone who plays on red seriously (i.e. the vast majority of people who play on red) is ragingly insecure about the fact that a) the vast majority of blue players think red is shit and b) blue players outnumber red 10:1. This is why we get this huge stream of "you bluebies suck come play on our server so we can grief you" BS. It's a search for social proof.

I read Influence and one of the most interesting stories involves a cult who believed that aliens were going to evacuate them before the world was blown up. Said date arrived, the world did not explode, and the cult went into full-on recruitment mode. It seems rather dumb to try to recruit people after your most central teachings have been exposed as new-age hogwash, but Cialdini explains this as a search for social proof. The cultists had committed so heavily to these ideas (quitting jobs, leaving relationships) that they could not accept they were wrong; instead they searched for other people to tell them they were right.

Did I just compare P1999 red to a cult? I think so!
