I'm delighted you get the reference!

I'd be more worried if someone who uses the internet to such a degree that they use Lemmy over Reddit, on a programming forum, didn't get the reference. This is famous hacker lore at this point.

Can you be worried for me, and fill me in?

Oh, I’ve seen people do that crap on RuneScape back in the day. Not sure I’ve ever seen the meme though.
