No, I knew all along that the first part of the original post is the X-Bonus from A Word A Day for whatever day that was which the poster oddly annotated then added "and placebo(5) (a cure for nothing) in contrast to panacea".

People seem to be replying like they understand the meaning of the annotations and the comment, but I guess they don't after all. Is the emperor naked after all?
