Without the comments, which add nothing of value in this case:

Or with the comment that does add something:

The real content is in the comments, especially when dealing with Tumblr posts.

That's USUALLY so with tumblr, sure, but in this specific case? Not so much IMO 🤷

Too bad that something doesn't adhere to the structure of a limerick.

I found the comments funny and enriched the enjoyment I received from this post.

Fair enough 🤷

It was a graveyard graph

[–] jwt@programming.dev 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

But, but, 0 is also a bit...

[–] rakeshmondal@lemmy.zip 12 points 2 days ago (2 children)

No, it's in fact not a bit, which is exactly what they wrote.

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

It's not a byte but it can be a bit.

[–] jwt@programming.dev 3 points 2 days ago

I was just joking a little bit

It's only a limerick if it's filthy.

[–] A7thStone@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I felt dirty after reading it.

I first saw this a few years ago (without the pointless comments). Thanks for reminding me of it! I'd wanted to save it somewhere for future reference, but forgot.
