I'm working on a heading and wrote something that isn't super serious, which got me thinking... given the general atmosphere of the R community and R users when it comes to not being super serious (e.g. the artwork being created by Allison Horst at RStudio, a lot of the tweets by well-known R users that include silly GIFs etc, many of the content done by R Ladies like the praise package, the content of many teaching resources), should we incorporate that into the book too? It would (in my opinion) make it more appealing to a broader audience than the typical "dry" learning material that learners often encounter... Thoughts?
