This is a wholly inappropriate comment

I can't speak for anyone else, but it's my favorite comment so far. :-)

Isn't that a conflict of interest?

Is it? A quick look at the Mastodon / Twitter links at the bottom of the article should make it clear the author is (rightfully) proud of his butt. I suppose that won't prevent the rest of HN from getting offended, so maybe it's somewhat inappropriate. But not wholly.

I do think it’s wholly inappropriate to comment on another person’s body parts in a public forum, when it is not the topic of discussion, even if that person appears to be proud of said body part. But I can see your take on it

somewhere the ghost of Cyrano De Bergerac smiles upon you.
