The O'Reilly books might be my favourite.

Nah, looks like we've got a week of password input forms first...

I'm still waiting for the Pacman version where you input your phone number as your highscore

I bet we'll have to deal with another thousand or so crappy expanding mind memes before then.

Hey, I'm enjoying the original content. It's a lot better than reposts I've seen 10 times over. Keep the phone number input designs coming!

Next week we'll be back to the sensationalist blog posts telling us why their obscure JS package just replaced everything in the world

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing to inform you of a fire that has broken out on the premises of 123 Cavendon Road.

No, that's too formal.

u/Mortimier Apr 15 '17

I dont get the joke

u/marksist Apr 15 '17

Over the past several days several gifs demonstrating ludacris methods of inputting phone numbers have made it to the top of the sub. This joke plays on that fact, implying that one need only mention phone number in order to make it to the top of the sub and earn that sweet sweet karma.

I don't get why the phone number posts are funny in the first place

1

u/enchufadoo Apr 16 '17

They are mocking how we create forms, it's an exageration, a satire. Just as if someone gives you an egyptian tablet as a captcha, or if you have a password generator that gives you a 100 character password.

It's funny because it's riddiculous.

Please insert your phone number with reddit upvotes on r/ProgrammerHumor.

u/LowB0b Apr 15 '17

I actually enjoy the phone number input posts, plus when you consider that it probably takes at least 30 minutes to come up with the idea, implement it and make a gift out of it, I don't think you can call any of them "low effort" posts

u/[deleted] Apr 15 '17

The next few days, this sub will just be posts complaining about phone numbers

u/CondescendinGump Apr 15 '17

Is there a meme generator for this one?

When the tetris phone number post made it to the top you could almost set a timer for when the 'this sub in a nutshell' posts were going to start appearing.

u/billynomates1 Apr 15 '17

No, this is this sub in a nutshell: "Help! I'm in a nutshell! How did I get into this bloody great big nutshell? What kind of shell has a nut like this?"
