[artlung] Kevin is of course quoting Douglas Adams’ “The Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy” and what was said about the marketing division of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation in that fictional universe. Alas, a reference which may tend to fly over the heads and be misunderstood. A reminder I think to all of us to be cautious about what shared context we assume when we speak to an audience made of not us.
#
aaronpk Just cause it's a quote from a book doesn't make it any less excessively violent

[KevinMarks] Sorry, it is a bit much out of context and probably a bit too 1970s.

[Al_Abut] [KevinMarks] I took it as tongue in cheek as intended, even without the hitchhiker reference, and it made me chuckle. But I guess other people can take things more literally.

[tantek] [Al_Abut] I also sympathize with anyone having a stronger reaction to violent language like that given current events in the US, unfortunately
#
aaronpk what is lego?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "lego" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "lego is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
aaronpk well we have at least 2 indieweb examples now so time for a page?
#
aaronpk Lego is a line of toys using interlocking bricks and minifigures
