As for my membership userboxes, they are designed to lull you into a false sense of security, implying that I should be a well mannered and thoughtful Wikipedian, which is completely untrue.

The user boxes have been carefully selected not to be overly helpful in guessing anything about me. I chose the Flexible box in the same way I decide what books to have on my shelf; it was about the right size and colour. The middle userbox refers to House of Cards, the initials of which spawned my user name. The catch phrase is an inspiring example of speaking without actually communicating. Finally, the defcon is designed to give the impression I feel a sense of solidarity to all those hard working guys fighting vandalism. Similar to lefties wearing a stars and stripes pin in their suit. Not that I am trying to throw you off the scent by giving a U.S. cultural reference, of course.

As for my membership userboxes, they are designed to lull you into a false sense of security, implying that I should be a well mannered and thoughtful Wikipedian, which is completely untrue.
