As a tech worker, I resent that comment.

As someone who volunteered time over 20 years to maintain a well-used open-source project, I think your comment is a cheap generalization that shows remarkably low forethought.

Your cat will respect that, once she gets over being pissed at your not noticing her camouflaged on the stair. Because how dare you.

Being actually mean is stressful.

Wow. Paying your kids’ bills in college is so great if you can manage.

We had a lineman up here get attacked by a cougar. Fought off the cat with a 4-inch pocketknife, got himself out of the bush and to a highway before getting a ride to the hospital.

Absolute badass.
