What does your sleep paralysis demon ask you?

    Nearly all the comments are taking a literal position on if it is or isn’t a programming language.

    Idky I’m being singled out for not understanding the joke. It seems like nearly nobody does. And I still don’t.

      The “joke” is that it’s an issue that people feel compelled to comment on, but the sleeping person can’t. Predictably, most people are blowing straight past this and commenting their opinions, but most of the other replies are joking or whimsical. Yours is straightforward no-nonsense. If I had to guess, I’d say that’s why you’re being singled out.

        Ok, that kinda makes sense, but that seems pretty niche. you have to make a few cognitive leaps to get it. That’s ok, it’s fine to make jokes like that, but it seems a bit much to be a jerk to folks who don’t get it.

        Looking over the comment section again, it’s still like it was when I posted: most people are taking the question at face value, and not engaging with the joke.
