Nothing like showing off your mastery of the craft by... making the exact same thing everyone else did.

If they're trying to objectively evaluate someone's skills that's exactly what you would want to do. If you have to come up with a different criteria for every submission then it starts to become subjective quickly.

Check out 90% of woodworking posts, logic holds up.

Oh shit, is the epoxy river table our version of the dodecahedron!? 😱

"We believe 21st century rich people put a long strip of epoxy in their homes for ritualistic purposes. Though some have suggested it's pretty obviously some device for knitting."

Oh cmon, it's obviously a dildo but the scientists didn't want to say it out loud.

Wait till they find the terabytes of fertility idols on my computer.

As is tradition!

but.. tradition is peer pressure from dead people.

and.. dead people turn into zombies.

Ipso facto, you better make it or zombies will take your lunch money.
