You can't say you're "absurdly small" without showing exactly how small you are.

- andrewfromx 11y agoum, I was just yelled at for using a jepordy reference on hackernews! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11401408 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11401408
- calbear81 11y agoI thought this was the one day I could have a sense of juvenile humor... let the downvote onslaught continue!
- roflc0ptic 11y agoYou can have a juvenile sense of humor! Just... It's not that welcome here. The downvotes aren't a judgement on your character, just a judgement on a joke that's not appropriate in this context. It's cool. You're cool. Everyone's cool. Just don't make jeopardy jokes.
- calbear81 11y agoActually, I expected this to happen and it's not a big deal. I'll save the jokes for Reddit. The interesting thing is I don't think I've ever seen my karma bounce up and down so much every few minutes.
- Alt-F4 11y agoThe jeopardy part of the joke is hardly juvenile compared to the penis part of the joke.
- BHSPitMonkey 11y agoTitles != comments
- roflc0ptic 11y agoPop culture references lower the quality of discourse. You'll notice the general lack of them on the site. They're not value neutral - they make my life worse. Enough other people here agree that it's a social norm, enforced with words and downvotes. Don't be mad! Just don't make pop culture references.
- franciscop 11y agoMost people forget that a huge percentage of English speakers are not brought up and are not living in USA (or other countries where those pop culture reference are relevant). So we don't get those, it just confuses us. Thanks for clarifying it, @roflcOptic
- ant6n 11y agoLecturing people on the quality of discourse, however...
- jabgrabdthrow 11y agoNo, you made a shitty title, blame yourself.
