  • Tech savvy groups have always included a significant amount of well established people unhappy with how technology is being implemented or used - who then, yes, yell at clouds. Hell, a lot of us still literally yell about the Cloud.

    Paraphrasing a management quote I found a few decades ago - if the engineers aren’t complaining about something, it’s not because they’re happy. It means they’re complaining where you can’t hear them.

    Yeesh, so many people grumbling about poor relationship dynamics. The whole joke is that it was all in his head - she teased him a little, and he put himself into a tailspin by losing an imaginary argument.

    I’ve done that kind of thing a few times myself - my wife says something innocuous, and I read into it until I’ve gone completely off the rails. Has nothing to do with anything she’s done, it’s all to do with me misreading what’s happening and forecasting wrong without checking anything. That’s the joke.
