Bobby Tables?

[-] SmackemWittadic@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

You know a comic has reached legendary status when "Bobby Tables" is the first thing to come to mind for so many of us

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 month ago

I think in this case the joke is more about intrusive thoughts

Be honest. That database isn't very good anyway. You're doing them all a favor.

This shouldn't be this funny. I need to go to bed.

And the addiction of my world still spreads ~

Brain or testicle?

[-] affenlehrer@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I don't get it. Maybe I don't work enough with databases or it's because English isn't my native language. I know what drop DB does in SQL but it's also not a relatable thought for me and I also can't detect any pun. Also: Why have all the other organs eyes? If there's any organ with eyes connected to it, shouldn't it be the brain?

[-] bisby@lemmy.world 21 points 1 month ago

The entire joke is that every organ has a purpose, and the purpose of your brain is to make bad decisions.

Thank you.

Are you driving? Did you ever have the impulse to just jerk your steering wheel and crash into that tree rapidly approaching at 120mph?

The comic plays off of that.

[-] affenlehrer@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yes, I have had these thoughts and the call of the void. I never had them when working with databases though (I try to avoid SQL) so my thoughts went in a different direction.
