I don’t program professionally. Just here to keep an eye on the tech-bros who think they’re above everyone else.

if you can't make the leap of imagination to substitue your career path with the provided example, then...boy, I don't know

He was just colloquializing a sweet moment with his wife. Didn’t seem like anything to get worked up about.

To be fair, I know you didn't have much context. I had to look up "tech bro": https://www.wired.com/story/stop-calling-everyone-tech-bro/ https://www.wired.com/story/stop-calling-everyone-tech-bro/ Tech bro does not describe me (I agree they should have an eye kept on them though), I'm a 55 year old man who watches LHOTP on a 10 year old DVD player, has 10.5 years of Visual Basic programming, and wears sandals with white socks. Last week I had to look up "sh*tpost" and "edgelord", and before that "know your meme" when those were leveled at me. Maybe people on the Internet and social media too need to understand, like TV show fans, that it is NOT reality. It also doesn't foster the kind of wonderful, 20+ year marriage we've had--we are BFFs forever my wife and I, like Mr. and Mrs. Ingalls in some ways. I also reserve my right to laugh at the incongruities of the Internet--I have a headache from laughing so hard at it today, so I will spare everyone more annoyance and quit for a long time.
