The first rule about a secret society

Do not refer to it as "A Secret Society".

You can call it "The group" or "The Guild" or "The Book Club" or "The Breakfast Club"

But YOU DO NOT REFER TO IT AS A SECRET SOCIETY.

Unless you are obviously making a joke about a non existent secret society.

10. So ironic that a joke intended to make fun of repubs for being paranoid is believed by them...
