One of my favorite SCPs is a traveling moth salesman that tries to fast talk his way into selling you a helmet that lets you communicate with moths

I love how things in these stories go from “haha gamer weed, ” to “old world god”

My personal favorite interpretation of 05-13 is the idea that they're a person they picked up off the street. That the 05 council gets desensitized to things over years of anomalies and forget what is and isnt normal. So they get a random person off the street to determine if something is actually normal or not.

"How can a specific doctor die in one entry and be alive in another?" I always liked the 'The names are actually job titles.' explanation there.

there’s so much variety in the SCP universe and that’s what i love about it. we have the “you do not recognize the bodies in the water” to a dog that can boil water by shaking its fur so hard.

Used to read SCPs when I worked night shifts some years back, they were (and still are) so captivating and downright eerie in places. Some people are too talented for their own good. I'm just glad they're using their powers to write fiction.

My favorite SCP is SCP-2521
(or SCP- OO I I OO I O)
The idea behind it when I looked on the wiki for the first time is genius. An SCP that can only be described through symbols and pictures cuz every verbal description or any writings about it causes it to appear and take the info (or the author) with it.
By far my most favorite concept. It really caught my intere-

[CthulhuianBunny]

My favorite SCP is 962, aka “The Tower of Babble”. It’s a 281-meter-tall tower of steel and wood, that turns animals into crude facsimiles of humans for its work force, and occasionally sends out balloons with papers containing essays about how the tower admires humans.

I love the way SCP stories go from horror to stupid. Like, one of my favourite SCPs is a crew of coconut crabs who act like pirates, with their leader being a large crab who speaks like a Pirate.

[GearShotgun]

One of my favorite SCP stories is the one about a humanoid Cthulhu who just wants to relax and play video games, but unintentionally causes cults to spring up and worship him just by existing. He hates this, but can’t stop it from happening. So he turns himself in to the foundation for protection, resulting in cultists occasionally attacking the facility under the assumption he’s been imprisoned.

Wendi seems like the type of guy to make a series akin to the Conspiracy iceberg where he just goes through all ~7500 articles and analyzes every one of them

[bmouch]

I love that SCPs can range from things completely natural to earth but extremely dangerous, to cosmic horrors that are completely harmless.

[telecarlster]

Maybe 001 is the friends we make along the way

[author]

the craziest scp I've seen is scp-2137, which is tupac's ghost attempting to help the SCP foundation defeat the scarlet king through giving information in music tracks

[joeyk]

I like the orb monster that is fully intent on scaring humans, so they show it 50s monster movies and have all its handlers pretend to get scared when it appears as the Wolfman, Frankenstein, etc.

[aloe]

I think my favorite SCP is 5031, he’s just a sweet guy who just wants to cook and play piano and the story of the researchers actually caring about him and teaching him warmed my heart

[blueraven]

Just remember Tupac’s Ghost is a SCP that helps the foundation by solving mysteries through his raps. He’s also beefing with the scarlet king.

[hihi-nmuy]

There’s nothing more deflating than already knowing everything in Tier 1 comfortably, and instantly having no clue what the things in Tier 2 are.

Props for adding the warning. I know some people with schizophrenia and other mental illnesses who get messed up just hearing about this stuff.
