I don't get the Clueless animated gif. What does that mean in this context?

The girl represents MS being proud of itself for open sourcing something the two blokes consider irrelevant, as they head to the pub for a nice pint of Make.

That's my interpretation (and not my sentiment - I'd rather MS open-source tools like this than not).

Absolutely nothing, it was as relevant as the pull request itself.

Exactly. Rob was just being an annoying prick.

Jees, what is your issue seriously?

It's all just a bit of fun; there is no need to get directly insulting over it.

You absolutely were being an annoying prick. The best thing you can do is own up to it and apologize. Definitely not what you're doing right now, what with the whole "jees, what is your issue" thing.

The reason he's so touchy about it is he's a narcissistic annoying prick. He only did it for attention since people pay attention to bullies, and it requires no work or intelligence unlike being paid attention to for contributing constructively. Call him out as an obnoxious bully and his ego can't stand it.

This series of comments is absolutely disgusting.

Maybe you overestimate how funny you are.

Most professional developers will view this as a shameful and classless move on your part.

Calling someone a "prick" on multiple websites, as you have done, is massively rude.

The fact that your nasty comment here got upvoted rather than flagged to death is really sad.
