Anything else: I'm not short, y'all are just fucking tall.  I liked Fallout:NV, and I can kick your ass at Caravan, but my high luck score gave me a tragically inflated assumption about my real-life blackjack skills.

The code for & includes an &? :psyduck:

Loki:
All HTML-codes do.

It's usually not a problem. The standard filter goes like this:

1) Ignore normal symbols. Find a special symbol that can be replaced with an equivalent of the form &whatever;
2) Replace that symbol by &whatever;
3) If there are other symbols, go to 1.
4) You are finished.

After that, you will have a text that:
was entered as <&>
was replaced by &lt;&amp;&gt;
The browser sees it as &lt;&amp;&gt; in the HTML and displays it as <&>, so that's all fine.

The problems start if you apply the filter two times. Then your text:
was entered as <&>
was replaced by &lt;&amp;&gt;
was then replaced &amp;lt;&amp;amp;&amp;gt;
The browser sees it as &amp;lt;&amp;amp;&amp;gt; in the HTML and displays it as &lt;&amp;&gt; on your screen (like you can see in ackblom12's post).

Anything else you'd like to tell us: I usually post a lot more but I'm getting married in a month and am pretty overwhelmed with a ton of stuff so I've been absent for a while. And now there are a bunch of new people here! Hello new people :-) Also, I love cheese, art, learning/teaching and bargain shopping (and parentheses).
