Headline is clickbait.
There's no evidence that storks deliver babies vs storks being born alongside babies, or babies creating storks, or that storks impregnate mothers.
- lisper 6y agoYeah, that is actually kinda the whole point.
- whymauri 6y agoThese downvotes are Poe's Law at work. I think this is actually a meta joke, folks.
- bawolff 6y agoWhat, we're not allowed to downvote jokes that aren't particularly funny?
- BlueScreenDeath 6y agoBut he was trying to not be funny. To be funny.
- bendbro 6y agoBut how do we know that the root comment had not already succumbed to Poe's Law?
- jovial_cavalier 6y agoEveryone who is downvoting this comment has incurable autism.
- arkitaip 6y agoLet's not attack people with autism because HN is full of the humorless.
- jovial_cavalier 6y agoIt just pisses me off sometimes. How can a community of people be so aligned with my interests, and yet they are the most unpleasant, unfunny, stuck up people on the planet? Everyone in this community is used to being the smartest person in the room, and it shows. No one ever assumes good faith on the part of other posters. No one ever actually tries to understand the other point of view. No one even understands what they themselves are saying. This is an echo chamber of the most egoistic people on the planet, and that's why I browse HN. It's like some kind of massive terrarium for the socially doomed. Even your comment is offensive, with the passive aggressive "Let's not do X," as if we're part of some kind of collective, or I'm some kind of child that needs to be gently chided for my remark. You don't know me. I don't know you. Where does this holier-than-thou attitude come from?
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoIt comes from the site rules. Don't personally attack people here.
- jedimastert 6y ago> they are the most unpleasant, unfunny, stuck up people on the planet > Where does this holier-than-thou attitude come from? I don't think it's just whomever "they" is...
- jovial_cavalier 6y agoThe low quality of HN comments is universally recognized. It's just why you think they're shit that varies.

- slingnow 6y agoThe amount of opinion spewed as fact in your rant is impressive. Which makes it even more entertaining when you compare it against the point you're trying to make.
- karmakaze 6y agoIs the downvote now part of the meta too?
