Nobody ever called me a monkey to my face, and I have several JS projects up on Github. I have trouble believing thismismamterm of endearment or respect, especially as it was used here.


Maybe it's like nigger. It's okay when I am one and call myself one, but not when someone else who is not one calls you one?


Interesting. I always hit the space bar with my right thumb, too.


That was in reference to "thismismamterm," which took me several seconds to figure out.
