I've had my eye on this pack of stickers for my next laptop upgrade: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1133836260/cursed-programming-s...

(the joke here is that all of the tech has the wrong logo, ie the javascript sticker has a java logo, the vscode sticker has a vim logo, etc)



It's actually kind of concerning how these just look normal at first glance


I would get these if they were all OSS alternative logos with the paid names.


I feel like the GitHub one needs an inverse GitLab one. Otherwise it might look like you just have a GitLab logo and GitHub text logo separately.


I think of GitHub more with the octo cat logo (couldn't find a good link for it, and didn't want to hug anyone too hard, so no link), or their current logo: https://github.githubassets.com/assets/GitHub-Mark-ea2971cee... and not so much the stylized words GitHub.


This is incredible


This is awesome


So, you just like pissing people off?


I certainly do like being able to quickly categorize people into groups of those who can find humor in such stickers, and those who will get angry over them. Seems pretty useful in determining whether or not I would want to continue engaging with them :)


Unfortunately it's hard to tell at a glance whether it's a joke or the owner is extremely incompetent (though a quick conversation should reveal that)


Like the 5 people that downvoted my question.
