Press F to Respect the PC.

I'd like to begin this article by talking about Warhammer 40,000. Orks in 40k are possessed of a collaborative psychic power: If enough Orks believe something is true, with enough fervour, it will become true. This manifests in simplistic examples, such as go-faster stripes on the side of vehicles that actually increase their speed. And, more relevantly here, in the God-Emperor of Mankind. There's a theory that the Emperor should be long dead, and it's only the collective terror of the Orks, for whom he represents something of a boogeyman figure, that keeps him alive.
