    Oh, eww. I thought it was a reference to Orks, but it was just racist.

        It’s supposed to be red stripes! Not fully red! Paint the rest blue to help with cooling, otherwise it will keep overheating.

    Really don’t feel like this one needed a comeback. Publicly posting that is enough of a self-own.

      I was very confused how painting a laptop black made it less secure or how that could make it run faster. I was just like, “holy shit somebody painted a laptop” and was thinking about the hinges and stuff and what type of paint they hopefully used.

      Then read the white bit and realized it was about race.

        I thought it was some dumb attempt at thermal management like “oh when you paint roofs white it lowers electricity bills because the heat from the sun can’t go in as good so if I paint my laptop black it’ll be cooler because the heat from the inside will go out better, maybe”

        Like just some real dumb shit like that, but nope, racism

          Same. I remember doughnut on YouTube or ltt or somebody doing a thing on painting radiators black, and whether or not that increased their thermal ability.

          Like just some real dumb shit like that, but nope, racism.

        Yeah, I def didn’t get the racist joke until I read the clap back. Then I re-read the first tweet and was like “oh. Yep. Just straight racist.”

        This complete misunderstanding of “comeback” was surprisingly humorous, thank you.

        Comeback as in “A retort or answer, particularly a quick or clever one.”

        https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/comeback

        Franklin’s response is the ‘comeback’ in this case.

      You mean from the Karen that can’t decide how to spell her own name or the Chad? I’d just assumed it was all made up.

      Pretty sure one person came up with two racist jokes to tell at once.

    She should’ve painted it brown. It would always work without an issue, yet Karren would still blame it for all of her problems.
