I don't think it's the body language of someone writing for an open source project - he is obviously on a deadline, and the deadline is tomorrow! Do you think he has time to look at anything? His brain is jumping between work and panic every 17 seconds. He has already missed his stop twice and is about to do it again.

Quite the opposite. He was resolving PR comments. Girls like chads who push raw straight into the master branch without any review or testing.

You know what's the joke. Damn, why's everyone so pedant? It's a humour subreddit, half of the stuff posted here is nonsense written by inexperienced programmers (or rather non-programmers). Y'all are picking at this by pure projection

1 day ago
G0x209C

Lmao.. Maybe you should look in the mirror before you sling the word projection around.

Or did you mean to say conjecture? Neither would have been correct tho.

Also, what is effectively your point with involving other posts? What do other posts have to do with this one? Am I not commenting on this particular post?

You’re replying to someone who obviously did not miss that this is a humour community. I literally said I get that it’s a joke.

I’m not being pedantic, but to you it may seem pedantic. You’re welcome to your own opinion.

In my opinion it’s a poor and tasteless joke with sexist undertones. If you don’t agree, which you obviously don’t, let’s agree to disagree.

1 day ago
Fantastic_Parsley986

I don't see the sexism here. Classic joke, computer guy stereotype can't talk to girl, prefers screens, haha, we're supposed to laugh at that, that's all. I mentioned the other posts because if you're picking at the nonsense of this one, I'd guess you'd do the same to most of the others here in this sub, yet I'm sure you don't. I was confused why people would choose this one specifically, but you already answered that

1 day ago
G0x209C

You’re trying to paint me into a corner. It’s a fallacy in the same category as an ad hominem.

“Well, I bet you don’t respond to the other jokes like that so that invalidates what you said” How? I am one person, I see a post, I choose to respond to a post I see.

Yes, it’s a classic joke. That it’s classic doesn’t mean it can’t be received as distasteful.

The sexist undertone in the joke I see is that it places the man as someone who should be simping all over that girl. That he’s a loser for doing anything else.

The joke is not simply that he can’t talk to girls, it’s that he should be talking to them. That’s the implication hidden in it. There are multiple interpretations of course. I’m not blind to that. :)

I actually doubted responding to this post in the first place, but somehow this bothered me enough to say something.
