it has some real "come and get it" energy in how i see the phrase used in ironic contexts all the time, but it's also impossible to pinpoint any examples of it because of its sheer popularity outside of them

except, in this case, the only people who use the phrase ironically seem to almost exclusively be the people it's parodying

it's like a little self-aware joke where the only people who realize it exists are the ones telling it

is there anything else like that?

obsessed with the phrase "we've come a long way since pac-man"

it's like a game reviewer meme, but if you search it up, the only results are ones using it in earnest

it's gonna be cool when i get used to plan 9 because it will mean i have even more extraordinarily-niche muscle memory i can't use anywhere else to add to my collection

one thing i've always kinda appreciated about april fool's is how it's sometimes used to try things you usually can't!

plausible deniability can be used as one heck of a veil to momentarily break out of the expectations others have for you

a way where you can just say "what if?", and play that reality out for a day

i think i know why the quote "they were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should" rubs me the wrong way

expectation:
this person is talking about someone forgetting ethics and impact when creating a thing

reality:
this person is dunking on someone doing something extremely creative and novel with a thing they don't like

(oh, i should mention that emacs isn't in the proot, which is why i was happy with how transparent my scripts are acting)

i already have cider working doing something similar, so now i have both common lisp and clojure working like this!

this is cool as heck, seeing that getting either of those working in plain termux is a pain of monumental proportions (especially since clojure just like...pins my cpu when not in a proot for some reason)

i settled for slime because i feel like it's more stable, but oooh! it's nice having access to this on the go

it even opens hyperspec documentation in my mobile browser when i C-c C-d h (and actually, maybe i'll grab a local version of that too)

i wrote a script to bind mount my pwd and home so i can pretend it's not in its own environment a little

i wonder if that's good enough to get sly up and running in emacs?

i managed to get sbcl to work in termux!
(audience applause)

but it's in a proot
(everyone in audience boos)

THEM!!!!

i sometimes do this thing where i give birds extra space when i'm walking so they don't need to fly and waste energy

but thinking about it, i guess it probably looks more like i'm just scared of birds

realizing i'm osha-compliant

gradle sure has a lot of documentation that assumes i already know all the conventions of the things it's introducing me to
