FAQ > The Basics > Okay, I give up. What is it with EPCOT?
Oh, that? That was what happened when an innocent Earth Day post went horribly, hilariously wrong. You can read the original post here.
To "get it" you'll have to take a gander at the comment section, though (and let me apologize in advance for that).
Then you can read the following day's fall-out (and subsequent hilarity) here.
At that point, you'll be all caught up, clued in, and part of the "in" crowd. Promise.
Official definition: An "Epcot" is any comment that is repeated to an absurd degree. This may be as few as four in a row or as many as 42 but no more. 43 would be considered a "Spaceship Earth." In addition, only those who have read the blog for more than a year are allowed to declare an "Epcot" and to take cover in the "Epcot Bunker." Provisions in the bunker may include popcorn, candy and, of course, cake. And 2% milk. There will be no skim milk allowed in the bunker because, really, what's the point.
