Sockpuppets 101: Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What is a sockpuppet?
- A: A sockpuppet is a puppet made from an old sock, often used for dramatic performances, but in this context, it's a person pretending to be someone else online.
- Q: Why do you need to ask for permission to use our sockpuppets?
- A: Because, in a shocking twist, we're not actually made of socks and can't be used without consent. Also, we have feelings.
- Q: Can I use your sockpuppets to prank my friends?
- A: No. That's not why we're here. (But if you must know, we have a special "Sockpuppet Therapy" program for those struggling with the ethics of online deception.)
