> Why crisis? People should simply not look up.

I don't understand why this apt pun on that movie is being downvoted.

Would anyone of the downvoters of parent care to explain?



Puns are for Reddit, not HN.


[flagged]


HN's value proposition is high signal-to-noise discussion. Jokes and meme comments work against that.


A lot of people think off-topic puns and jokes are annoying, and HN has a much higher concentration of such people than most of the internet.

That's part of why discussion on HN tends to be much higher-signal than Facebook or Reddit.
