But the entire premise of the scene ▶ this video is that the act of telling someone to "stop trying to make fetch happen" is toxic and mean-spirited, and if someone actually does want to make "fetch" happen, they should be encouraged to do so. And if your "fetch" is the normalization of Mean Girls as a valid lede for didactic technical discourse, then you go Glen Coco.
"a8c" is Automattic (makers of Wordpress) for anyone who was confused. Obligatory "Mean Girls" ;) ▶ this video
I dunno. The constant barrage of: "BlockChains, but for Cancer!" just seems ... derivative now. Like the 'Uber, but for dogs' was this time last year. Everyone knows these hacker-coins are a scam, the last one with them looses their shirt. Yeah, the ideas are kinda cool, but, nah man. Like, from Mean Girls : "Gretchen, stop trying to make 'Fetch' happen, it's not gonna happen" ▶ this video
