Not that I, of all people, am the arbiter of what's considered funny, but between the obvious rug pull punchline, and the niche joke that's played completely straight, can't say either landed for me, personally (didn't even bother to read the unironic angry men posts, so maybe that's the funny part)
If this lets Null and the mods vent a little at our expense, all the power to them.
That said, you can't even claim this is to bait cope and seethe reactions since Null locked the thread immediately at midnight. I don't even think anyone took the bait, either.
