-'''The Circle''', short for '''''the Circlejerk''''', also called '''''the group''''', is the name for the [[Sapphire Development#Staff of Sapphire|staff]] and [[Sapphire Development#Staff of Sapphire|culture]] of Sapphire.
+'''The Circle''' is a nickname for [[Sapphire]] of esoteric origins. It can arguably be considered one of [[Bryan]]'s PSYOPs.
-== Etymology ==
+''See [[Sapphire Development#Culture of Sapphire|Culture of Sapphire]] for a summary of Circle culture.
-In the early years of Sapphire, [[DIK]] was not a thing. To have a '''circlejerk''' seemed like a foreign idea at the time. At this time, the group's culture somewhat revolved around '''''That '70s Show'''''. The group was interested in the sexuality and cannabis culture involved in the show. The group could relate to the show greatly, as they were always with what some call '''''a natural high'''''. In the show, there was a Circle in which, under the influence of marijuana, the characters conceived many "great" ideas. This concept of a circle of friends [who were "high"] was integrated into Sapphire and from then on the group itself [of Sapphire] was also known as '''''The Circle'''''.
-== Legacy of ''That '70s Show'' ==
-As a result of '''''That '70s Show''''' being essentially a ''Bible'' for the group, it set the foundation for modern Sapphire culture to develop. From this show, and other minor factors, Cannabis culture became popular in the group. It is also possible that the sexuality in the show is the ancestor of the modern [[DIK]] fad in Sapphire.
