  “It was funny when I used to do it but now I don’t like them anymore so everyone else should stop.”

    It’s okay, nay, good to realise that something you do or did was harmful and change your opinion of said thing. It’s how you grow as a person.

      They haven’t actually acknowledged it being harmful, they just said it was cringe worthy. You don’t have to like everything but it’s hypocritical to complain about others’ sense of humour, for something you yourself once enjoyed.

      No evidence of character growth here…

        None of your objections so far have come close to resembling good faith rebuttals.

        We have eyes, we’ve read the tweet, we (I would hope) know what invoking rm -rf / does. Presumably the context alone there and reading the room here should be enough to clue one in why one would find it specifically cringeworthy (even if I would probably use a tamer way to describe it-personally), and why perhaps one would in the exact same vein just find things funny for different reasons, or just find different things funny altogether.

        Of course, I got the joke straight away and merely chuckled. Not necessarily my brand of humor, but hey, you buy the premise, you’ve bought the bit.

        I made a comment about my preferences and now I’m a hypocrite because I don’t share yours? Let’s temper the conversation here, we’re not analyzing individual levels of human goodness based on individual comments.

        Please continue to find whatever thing is funny to you as funny. I will continue to opine where I decide on my tastes. Glad we have this understanding.
