You know what's funny?

Being called Jason.

Developers when talking about APIs and similar stuff: "So if you connect to our API you can get XML or JSON-" <pause>
<looks at me with a smirk like "haha! JSON/JASON LOL!">
<I gently smile like saying "yes. yes. I know. Thank you">

Sigh

    I'm waiting for JSOFF to be introduced, so I can build a beautiful facility in my backyard, with the intention of training inexperienced students on how to JSON/JSOFF as they download a todo list of tv shows and movies that I haven't seen yet, via torrent.

    @M1sf3t fortunately... I am the single dev in the company. We have meet-ups with other DMOs (tourism sector) when I hang with our CMS providers and other web developers from other destinations. So it's actually bearable :)

    @iamavalos pronunciation is fine, in French, if you're named "Sam", it can be short for saying "ça me" (this makes me...) as "ça'm"/Sam and add anything after

    This makes me pissed
    This makes me sick
    Ça'm fait chier
    Ça'm rend malade

    It's more what people think they make an original joke when you've actually heard it a million times :')

    @Floydian am here! :D less busy now
