I jokingly suggested a similar crusade against sprints, because the nature of my team's work isn't prohibitively time-boxed either.

None of your objections so far have come close to resembling good faith rebuttals. Or even good ones.

We have eyes, we've read the tweet, we (I would hope) know what invoking rm -rf / does. Presumably the context alone there and reading the room here should be enough to clue one in why one would find it specifically cringeworthy (even if I would probably use a tamer way to describe it-personally), and why perhaps one would in the exact same vein just find things funny for different reasons, or just find different things funny altogether. How is it hypocritical to acknowledge the humor in a joke while pointing out that the same joke carries an uncomfortable truth to it? Sometimes those are the best jokes (best of course being subjective)

Of course, I got the joke straight away and merely chuckled. Not necessarily my brand of humor, but hey, you buy the premise, you've bought the bit.

Coincidentally also works for career changes.

I’ll take the paycheck.
