I remember that quote from the film as good as it gets, where the fangirl asks the author how he captures writing for woman's viewpoint so well, he responds saying he takes logic, reason, accountability away from the character, and what she reads is what is left!

I know you probably don't care because this is about the lulz to you, but if you have a shred of decency in you I'd like you to consider the reason you made this comment, and consider the social effects it has if somebody makes a comment like this on every such story about this subject that comes up.

Or in brief, look at your life look at your choices.

Why are you trying to lecture a troll?

To put it another way:

m8, u 8 the b8

Oh it's not really for them. See, if you don't state the obvious that such people are disgusting little twerps it gets brought up as an example of the things evil tech industry people really think but won't say.

So you're basically putting on a show for people who are spectacularly wrong about the obvious and loud about it?

Don't feed the trolls. That includes the people who think anyone who disagrees with them is a .ist, .phobic troll.

You know people can joke without believing in the stuff the joke is about, right? If someone thinks that the jokes people tell are their believes ... that tells bad stuff about them, not about the jokers.

HN downvotes jokes, even jokes that are funny, and I prefer it that way.

Ironically also a great way to perpetuate the nerd stereotypes :)

It's a great way to keep our community unique and worth visiting. The world is full of vapid joke comments (anyone can make them).

And what happens if s/he considered the effects and find them negligible/irrelevant/not worthy of caring about them.
