Has Fluther ever had an effect on the outside world?

Asked by talljasperman (21919points) June 13th, 2015

Like a science or technology discovery or innovation? Have any of us asked a truly wonderful question that has led to a discovery? Wouldn’t that be nice?

I’m of the mind that one of the developers for Dragon Age Inquisition saw me on here, and then created the Sera character for the game. ~

Yeah, cuz if we somehow changed shit, I’d hope we’d get some goddamn recognition.

They published a book, but now I can’t seem to find it or the thread where it was written. Any better researcher than me able to find it?

Discovery and innovation in my brain only. What I find out here has existed for a long time, it’s just me who don’t know.

Surely you jest? Fluff, Fluther, they both start with “F”, that is about as far as an outside discovery as this place is ever gonna get.

@Hypocrisy_Central You remind me of that dude I saw on YouTube who thinks sports were invented by Satan because both word/name start with the letter S. :p

^ Satan doesn’t bowl, his golf game sucks, and he has a glass jaw, no comparison as Satan can’t do sports.

If one is not serving the Lord, by default there is only one person left. I wasn’t actively serving him but tacitly I was, he had be fooled, bamboozled, and rooked, thank the Lord my eyes of enlightenment were opened.

I was told by someone attached to a government agency that I regard as borderline sinister that “you would be surprised at some of the people and organizations that monitor or ‘mine’ fluther.
