      Comment removed for being weird (derogatory). I refrained just barely from hitting the “ban from community” button on the slim chance it was a badly misfired joke from a person who can otherwise behave themself, but I won’t object if any other mod goes ahead with the banhammer.

        I was vacillating on reply harshness, but “hey tell me when you’re home” … some people just need to get better with informed consent.

        (agree that this probably wasn’t banworthy (yet), but close)

        Did none of y’all read the comment we’re all replying to?

        Like, did you just completely miss the joke? It went so far over your head that I’m not sure you even understand what the definition of a joke is.

        Yes, out of context, my comment did sound “weird,” but if you stopped to read the comment I’m replying to and could comprehend its meaning towards the original post, then maybe you could see the joke and kinda see where I was going with it.

        I guess people like you are why this instance is called “awful systems.”

          it was some shitty follow-up to your joke so unfunny it made your post less funny just by being under it. pull this thread from mastodon and chances are you’ll see it if you really want to

          anyway if you want a laugh, they threw a tantrum and reported your post because we deleted theirs:

          their joke was in that exact tone too because they’re a comedy black hole

        The fuck? How are you so completely oblivious to the joke in my comment?

        It’s almost like you failed to read the comment I replied to and/or failed to comprehend its meaning towards the original post.

        Maybe out of context, my comment was “weird,” but with context, it’s just a joke that went so far over your head that I’m surprised you even have the brain power to type a reply.
