Instead of a "caption the picture" contest, we need to have a "suggest what Ivan would comment" contest.

Q: What has happened to lead moderators to consider striking?

This is, more or less, for the benefit of the community at large. Not everyone pays deep attention to the inner workings of Stack Overflow, and it may be disconcerting to some to see moderators are considering a strike. I figured I would share things from my perspective (as an elected moderator),...

This answer actually was "HI, HBr, and HCl are strong acids." However, salutations (e.g. "Hi") are automatically removed, which leaves "HBr, and HCl are strong acids." — Loong ♦ 39 secs ago
