    Lemmy is so weird. Some of the memes make me think that average audience here is 15 yrs old, but then there is the occasional post like this which only 70 year old ancient wizards will understand.

      Growing up doesn’t mean we stop finding a well timed fart funny. It means 70 years of memories is still tickled by a crude punchline. Old people and young people have the same sense of humor but slang causes transmission errors.

      I resent that. I’m 38 and I distinctly remember this. RedHat 4.2 (Manhattan) circa 1997 I think. That was when I started messing with Linux.

      How do you have to be 70 years old to understand this?
