Dang, what are the odds of you coincidentally stumbling upon this article? That's amazing. 😁

Not much of one. I was poking around Dev this morning, thought "Huh, I wonder what new stuff Some Dood has written," and there it is!

It sounds so silly to say "I wonder what new stuff some dood has written" because of how vague and ambiguous it sounds when out of context. 😆 If someone outside the community read that, they would definitely ask what you meant by "some dood"? Ah, this is why I love this username. It just sounds so silly.

Irrelevant, but one social IRC room I hang out in is inhabited entirely by Python programmers. We maintain an entire gallery of statements that come up during conversation, but sound ridiculous out-of-context.

Yo, that sounds so funny. I'd love to read the humor of statements without context.

Anyway, we seem to be drifting quite far from your original comment. 😂 I wouldn't want to go too off-topic here. Thanks again for your nice comments! They really mean a lot.

Follow me back, and we can take the conversation over to PM, yeah?

GOOD IDEA! Why have I never thought about that before? I'll see you on the other side, my friend.
