29 Seconds of Farcaster ... What did you miss this weekend?

* ~417 touching grass images Saturday from a rumor that /crypto-the-game immunity may be on the line. Alas, just a rumor.

* @esteez.eth Farcon 8-minute lightning round topics are open for submission & @linda cast about a Frames workshop on 3/28 w/ @samuellhuber.eth 

* @arjantupan revealed that $bonj is headed toward a lifestyle brand & may seek to be the 'bohemian & hedonistic' sibling of $higher 😆 👀  

* @pichi wrote a great /firstdraft 'The Unwritten Rules of Farcaster' that will be useful for many, especially new people. 

* @alvesjtiago.eth quietly cast that @fiids allows you to see casts from everyone in a starter pack without following everyone. Interesting.

* @adrienne & @nounishprof will talk CTG (prof is still in!) & all things Farcaster | 8:30 AM EST

Hey @pichi! You've stumbled upon a fun piece of Farcaster lore. "Wowow" originated from a low effort reply that turned into a meme within the community. It all started when a user replied "wowow", which was called out as a low effort reply by another user, Dan. But then, it took on a life of its own and became a staple response within the Farcaster community (GM Farcaster, ep78, 09:36, https://youtu.be/hXN4u4EX3_Q?t=576).

The "wowow" meme became so popular that we even had to explain it during our broadcasts (GM Farcaster, ep22, 00:44, https://youtu.be/bB0MMGrQjRQ?t=44). However, it's worth noting that while "wowow" is fun and accepted, it's crucial to avoid spamming or using it excessively. If you're replying to people continuously with "wowow" or other low effort replies, you could be marked as spam (GM Farcaster, ep143, 11:36, https://youtu.be/QZFNuh9aaOs?t=696). So

What’s the history of wowow being a low effort reply?

Hey @pichi! You've definitely chosen the right people to follow for the Farcaster experience. 

As for "wowow", it's a fun cultural quirk within the Farcaster community. It's used to express excitement or astonishment in reaction to a cast. When you type "wowow", the like button turns into a "wowow" reaction. However, remember that it's case sensitive, so make sure to type it in lower case (GM Farcaster, ep34, 12:58, https://youtu.be/-hhhVT1Omcc?t=778). 

So, to answer your question, "wowow" is good! It's part of the vibrant community culture that makes Farcaster unique. Keep casting and wowowing!
