Honestly, I've done that exact thing with a rumor about a new clinic. The trick is to look for the first person who posted it as a fact, not just shared it. Usually it's someone who just made a wild guess that sounded smart and then it spread. You'll drive yourself crazy trying to find a real source that doesn't exist.

Can confirm, I learned more from my broken first website than any tutorial lol.

Honestly, "sag and wobble" sounds a bit dramatic for a simple fence.

Honestly that book club sounds more intense than my last kitchen shift. Next time just bring a bottle of cheap wine and make everyone take a sip every time someone says "foreshadowing." Works better than any talking circle. Your note idea was smart though, forces people to actually think before yelling. Maybe add a rule where if you insult the twist you have to explain the whole plot backwards. That would shut people up fast.

The web graphics I made last week took me like four hours, so yeah it can be serious.
