Is it OK to use the "Rosie's Corner" category if you're not RosieG?

I recently thought of a question I thought was very similar to the sorts of questions RosieG asks, but I wasn't sure if such presumptuousness was allowed.

    No. RosieG is the only one allowed to post questions there.

    OK, thank you.

    I suspected as much, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to check.

    Perhaps if it happens again I'll ask her to ask the question on my behalf...

      I once presumed that it was okay to do because of the exact justification that you stated: it was part and parcel, chapter and verse the way she forms her "questions".  Anyway, I had the audacity, the tenacity, the sheer gall to actually post it there.  I had both of my wrists slapped so fast and so hard and so many times that you'd think I had stolen from the collection plate in church on a Sunday!  It was pointed out to me that mere mortals are not to deign themselves worthy of such a privilege, as is codified in stone in the rules and regulations of this website. I was warned that were I to ever attempt religion repetition of said offense, banishment from the kingdom would be the next remedy.

    Since I'm only allowed to grant one "Asker's Pick" and m2c's answer is straight from the Holy Writ, I cannot grant yours that designation. But I thank you for it.

    What the HELL is Rosie's CORNER?  

    Just ASK the darned question.  

    Who cares where it comes from?

    I did ask. But in my mind the question I asked sounded a lot like a RosieG question, so I thought maybe putting it in her corner would be an appropriate homage. 

    We cockatoos are notoriously difficult to shut up...

    I don’t even pay attention to the categories. Just ask away.

      They (the mods and admins) now move people's posts to categories that they deem to be "more appropriate", I don't remember how long you've been gone from the website, nor do I remember when they started doing this. If you were on the now defunct AnswerBag, you may remember that many of us loved intentionally posting things in incorrect categories, it drove the admins crazy.

    Ah, well I still never paid attention. I see an interesting question and I’ll answer it, or just see what is going on in the feed. It has been a while though. I think I last used this site back in 2015. I am pleased that this has become the new AB!
