It is hard to imagine that there was not someone inside of Nike that lost their faith in humanity when the pitch for these things was originally taking off.

How did you post this comment? // Were you using an app?

Please refer to the context when interpreting what others say dammit. Your questions stink "ackshyually lol lmao" from a distance.

The OP is talking about sneakers unnecessarily requiring an "app"; in this context, Farts' "anything" should be interpreted as "physical goods" (like sneakers), not "internet services that may be accessed through a browser or specialised software" (like Lemmy).

I'm sorry oh mighty one.

I'll go and enjoy the pun over here while you try to figure out if what I wrote was intentionally funny or accidentally funny, or funny at all. Social ques are hard aren't they.

You might have intended it to be funny, but it wasn’t, as it is clear from the downvotes. So instead of trying to convince everybody in multiple desperate comments that they are wrong, maybe just move on.

Ya a little late to the game buddy. Convo is a day old at this point.

But thanks for trying

Cut off the crap.

"Ackshyually I was totally joking! Yeah, it was a joke! You're just too stupid to get the clue" doesn't work if there's no clue that it's a joke on first place, no matter if you rephrase it with Reddit style passive aggressiveness.

Please do everyone in Lemmy a favour and stay in Reddit. You'll be in more suitable company.
