Welcome to the Mother Ship of amateur comedy writing! (Amateur means we don't pay you to do it.)
This is where the original Uncyclopedia wound up. You might as well pick a user name. We have no "partners" that want to sell you stuff. Giving your email simply lets you recover your password; we don't send spam. Uncyclopedians get a talk page, private edit area, and a welcome, maybe, if you actually edit; and we won't de-platform you for your views, if they're funny.

Notes
- In order to avoid syntax errors, put in the c value!
- This template is able to defeat the page cache using the random selection feature (the choose tags).
- The source of randomness is based on the number of articles, pages, files, registered users and admins, and the time (to the second).
- This is suitable for use in parser functions
- eg: 5 + 7 = 12
