Those are my logical thoughts, but those of you who know me might remember
that there is one, more illogical, thing that gets under my skin more than
almost anything else: Wikipe-tan and her short skirt and thigh-high
stockings. Why, WHY is it ok that we even joke about that being our
"mascot"? An overtly sexualized, large-breasted woman who people regularly
draw in bikinis and maid costumes?
FYI, Puzzly is an attempt to create a gender- and cultural-neutral mascot:

Now, I'm not pretending this will solve all problems, but if we manage
to slowly get rid of Wikipe-tan and to replace her by Puzzly, it'll be
a small step in the right direction :)
