Maybe the symmetry made people more likely to overlook the conventional way of writing things. Still no hard rule, but more leniency if it looks cool.

There are two replies to the parent comment.

One saying that neo pronouns barely exist, and they're imagining a person who would be angry at it.

The other comment is basically asking for a fight with their Xe preferred pronoun friend.

I just thought the contrast and dichotomy of that was noteworthy.

Reading it in the early 00s it made me wish I lived somewhere far more interesting with far more wild classmates.

All the rules and restrictions were so internalised, I think if we were abandoned on an island half of them would just sit still and starve.

I can't imagine any of them being interesting enough to try to start their own religious cult or anything.

And the discussion on whether or not to pin versions.

Pinned, these packages work together, but don't automatically pull in security updates.

Don't pin, things randomly change on each build, best of luck debugging things.

Engagement bait. Seems to be pretty effective at the moment
