Maybe this will make you smile 🙂. Or maybe you _evil_ fellas can help out with some compromise 😁.

It was kind of amusing, but it was also posted by a brand-new account, and people there are saying that it’s actually quite well-aged copypasta, so…

And yet enough people didn’t know about it (including me, and I guess also you) and got some amusement out of it 🙂

We’re today’s [lucky 10,000](https://xkcd.com/1053). 🙂

Eh, being posted on a brand new account and being upvoted 1100+ times (nothing ever gets upvoted anywhere near that high on r/emacs), as well as having been crossposted on two other subs, it looks to me like a clear case of karma farming on a new account. I can’t endorse that.
