It's like you willingly got trolled...the post is a joke, and you knew it, but you still got bummed and made ominous assumptions about the person who penned a silly meme regurgitation. I don't understand.
I think I finally do. For a long time I would see posts like GP's on 4chan and wonder if someone is really making them with a straight face unironically, or if it's part of some master troll orchestrated by a grand ruseman. For a while the grand ruseman theory seemed more believable, but seeing a normal person make such a comment on HN makes me think that perhaps most such posts are really made by normal people which, perhaps paradoxically, actually restores a bit of my faith in humanity. I mean, compared to the idea of people with nothing better to do than orchestrate stupid posts on 4chan of all places.
Sure it does. It suggests the person who penned it had a sense of humor rather than suggesting they are as much of a macaroni art critic as you imagine.
