Default Define 5M.net

Okay, so I was wandering around Bob and George forums (one more plug for the granddaddy of all sprite comics), and I stumble across the list of 1001 Ways to Pass Time on the Internet. Number 77 is ... well, I'll quote:

http://forums.bobandgeorge.com/viewt...r=asc&start=30

Number 77
Name: 5-Minute Voyager
Link: www.fiveminute.net
Type: Star Trek Parody
Description: Compress a Star Trek episode into 5 minutes, add a whole bunch of parody stuff, and you've got a fiver! Even if you don't like Star Trek (unlike me), or are not a hyper-fanatic convention-cosplaying Trekkie (like me), there's still enough to grab your attention.

Oh, and the 77 isn't a rank or anything, it's just the 77th listed. And it was posted in October 2004 (was it still 5MV back then?). So my question is: how would you define 5M.net in one sentence?

FiveMinute.Net: the most wretched hive of reductionist nerds and pie obsessives on the internet.

But that's not great, so how about this:

We are the fivists. You will be parodied. Verbosity is futile.

All your parodies are belong to us. You have no chance to survive read our fivers.

Actually, "Got five?" works for me on a lot of levels. Not exactly a "definition," but since when is anything on this site exactly accurate?
