It’s being downvoted because it’s technically incorrect. They are describing a Dutch Oven.

Uh yes, they were being sarcastic.

Once again…the humorless HN strikes. Sheesh.

If the joke was worth making, the joke was worth suffering the downvotes. Have some courage in your convictions, and most importantly: don't whine about it.

My courage is strong, I’m willing to support a downvoted comment with another comment or two that I know will be downvoted to hell too…just to hold a mirror up to the humorless folk on here.

You do realise my comment was a joke right? In fact, I believe HN karma exists for the sole purpose of burning it on jokes.

I mean obviously they were being downvoted because it’s nothing to do with the Dutch, it’s just a fart fort.

Is an unfunny joke worth making? Aren't downvotes people telling you they don't find the joke funny?
