How does this get downvoted? I know we're all about good conversation but in bursts, stuff like this completes this forum. This comment was clever and I laughed out loud. If a lighthearted comment is good enough to do that, it's worthy - at very least - of not getting downvoted.
FYI this is a reference to the movie - if you haven't seen it, it won't be funny and is probably worthy in your mind of being downvoted. If you have seen it, you're hitting thumbs up.
- pigbucket 16y agoYes, I think it was not clear to everyone that izaidi was quoting, from the movie, Sean Parker's advice to Zuck about thefacebook. A comment that can pithily cast an ironic sidelight on a sober request for precision in the naming of a company by alluding obliquely to the movie whose title is being rejected is, as you say, clever and funny, and, as I think you imply by saying it "completes the forum," interesting to those with an intellectual curiosity that is not strictly one-dimensional. Your comment, I take it, is being downvoted because it's complaining about downvoting, however legitimately. And this one probably should be because its author takes the whole question seriously enough to compose this excessive reply.
- InfinityX0 16y agoYeah I was subject to the "Curse of Knowledge" - believing everyone who read this thread was someone who had seen the movie. I added an edit likely after you started this and before you published regarding that very fact.
