Software Companies Are Shit

Code is shit. Software companies are assholes. Farts are law. Piles of poop are governments. Code is law. Software companies are governments. You're in the dangerous proximity of synthesizing "Software companies are shit. Programmers are assholes". That goes without saying.

A dark-mode Twitter thread shows a programmer making a cynical statement about software companies, followed by increasingly absurd replies comparing code, farts, poop, and governments. The joke is a chain of wordplay that transforms the original insult into a bizarre logical synthesis, ending with the dry response that it goes without saying. It is shared as an absurd reaction to convoluted reasoning or cynical programmer humor.
