Are you OK with other people using this ? This looks to be the perfect #Code of Conduct

Feel free :-) I warn you that the only way I had the courage to write it was that I drank a considerable amount of nihonshu (Japanese sake). It was pink. The label said that the pink colour was a natural result of the kouji (aspergillus oryzae). I'm skeptical :-)
But, in all seriousness, I've been thinking about it a lot and really the main thing, I think, is for everyone (even the maintainer) to avoid drama. If you find yourself in a dramatic situation that seems to have been caused by your actions, simply apologise for the drama that you have unintentionally invoked. I think that's all that is necessary.
Thank you! I think if you put this code of conduct in it's own repo you'll get thousands of stars :)
You just got another project to maintain. :)
You should definitely host this document somewhere.

Well, if you find it sufficiently fun. :)
