@michael_silva Well, the thing is - some people aren’t joking. Dissent is healthy; passive aggressive is not.

@michael_silva I mean, I get it - there’s plenty to hate about WordPress and the way things go or don’t go. But hate accurately :)

@michael_silva @danielbachhuber Speak for yourself - I’m at 0 unread Trac emails right now.

@chrislema I’m obviously biased toward one in particular, but those are all fantastic :) Love the kiss especially!

@altjoen Don’t even have to click publish :) https://github.com/helenhousandi/snap …

@markjaquith This must be one of the most agonizing decisions of my life. Certainly harder than dropping out of CS.

@markjaquith I DON’T RELATE TO YOUR STUPID DIAERESES THEY ARE AN AFFRONT OKAY

@markjaquith @sarahpressler @salliegoetsch Sometimes I think it’s the entire problem. As if it could be that simplified.

@sarahpressler @salliegoetsch @markjaquith Not personally relating doesn’t make other people’s experiences or reactions invalid.

@chrislema Hey, still early enough for you to get some! :)

Damn, now I want pupusas. That’ll teach me to make jokes.

@chrislema Truth. Oh hey can you make me some empanadas or pupusas or something, it’s all the same, right?

@chrislema I was mostly amused by her surprise to discover that I not only speak English, but I speak it with a little drawl.

@chrislema I guess it wasn’t completely uncalled for; music conservatory must have been at least 15% South Korean plus more from Asia.

@chrislema They approached me instead and asked, loud and slow: “ARE YOU HERE FOR THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE INTERVIEW?”

@chrislema Ha. When A and I auditioned for grad school, he had to go up for an ESL interview (he’s from Costa Rica) +

@chrislema Whaaaa?

@salliegoetsch @markjaquith Most of the stupid stuff said to me used to be racist. Now that I’m in brown people land, it’s more often sexist

@salliegoetsch @markjaquith I think it’s different in various crowds and places. Fellow CS students didn’t talk much, but definitely leered.
