I'm wondering what the joke behind the weird shapes of "softie" and "punch" are about.

:The shapes could easily be random. But at first glance the "softie" shape vaguely represents areas where Mormons represent more than 50% of the population.

I'm pretty sure "crypto" is a joke on cryptocurrency craze, not cryptography or any other crypto-thing.

Heh. Lots of these funny names might remind specific users of specific things, but it's foolish of us to say that those names are surely references to those things. "You-know-what" is a Harry Potter reference? Really? [[User:Alanbbent|Alanbbent]] ([[User talk:Alanbbent|talk]]) 16:28, 7 February 2019 (UTC) | Heh.
