Found this when looking for a meme I lost (lemy.lol)

The lost meme in question was like this: A post on r/notinteresting saying "I don't know anything about programming, ask me anything." A comment asked "How to kill the child process?" Then replied to himself: Who reported me 💀

i actually have a script that kills all unattached tmux sessions, named kill-orphans, because its funny (even if the name may be technically wrong idk)

I prefer funny over accurate.

Most of the code I write alone is full of jokes and puns that no one would ever get. But then when I go back to it much later, I smile and go "yep, I know exactly how I most have been looking at the system when I wrote this"
