In part, I expect, due to the double full-stop which looks like it might be a miss-type ellipsis. It makes what could already potentially be seen as a sarcastic “cool story bro” response look even more so.
That, and the fact that HN generally disfavours short reaction comments (including, but not limited to, “Me too!”) which add nothing themselves other than perhaps (in the case of “me too”) an extra anecdata point.
Your follow-up post may well be downvoted too, because complaining about downvotes also being frowned upon (it is seen as adding unnecessary noise to a thread).
