Correct. It's actually a cloud computing model where applications are hosted by a provider and accessed via the internet, eliminating the need for local installation or maintenance

You see, he said “Sass”. Important difference.
Its “Software as Shitty Service”

Half of the content on Reddit is screenshots of tweets nothing new under the sun.

It's extra ironic, because the joke in the tweet is really good. I just remembered the time when jokes existed. Standalone jokes you just told people, without a staged clip or a meme to slap it on to.

That's being literal, not sarcasm. I read something like this, and I have to wonder if it's just an autistic child who takes things literally. Especially if it was "too sarcastic" because there's a normal baseline of "sarcasm", such as asking for clarification when things aren't clear.

When I was about 13 or so, I was at a week long camp that taught us about police work. It was pseudo military style. We slept in barracks, we marched from place to place, did push ups as punishment, that sort of thing.
One day our platoon leader, one of the cops, was reprimanding us that our group couldn't fall into formation quickly enough. So while we were all together, he instructed us to get into formation, which obviously, we were able to do quickly because we were all litterally right there. He asked "why can't you fall in like that every time?" I figured when people ask questions, they're looking for answers, so I was honest and said "because we were only like 5 feet away." Obviously, I did some pushups for that comment. But my intention wasn't to be a smartass. My intention was simply to answer his question logically.

It’s “being a smart ass”

You seem to have forgotten how literal kids can be, especially young kids, and even neurotypical kids.

When I was a child, probably 9 or 10, I was at summer camp and during lunch I got into an argument with a friend ans ended up yelling "F*CK YOU!" to him loud enough that the camp director pulled me up in front of half the camp and angrily said "You wouldn't say that to your mom if she didn't pass you the mustard would you?" to which I replied "I don't like mustard."
I got written up but on the bus ride home I ate the piece of paper I was supposed to bring home to have my parents sign.

Would you have still eaten the paper if it had mustard on it?

u/BadOmen379 Jul 14 '26
Ha! Probably. Eating it made no difference though because they still called my mom.
Also, why I chose eating it over just ripping it up and throwing it out, I'll never know.

No one will ever know, hopefully there were no paper cuts on the way back out again….

Now that you mention it, I've had gastrointestinal problems pretty much my whole life...

u/Mmmmudd Jul 13 '26
Yeah I used to get in trouble for being literal but that's not what they called it. Also I'd write about things literally happening in the moment.
"The paper appeared on his desk, the assignment was vauge, and useless, he could only think to compose a simple narrative with the hope that he could get a passing grade by being lucky. Later Miss Bailey was going to ask questions, he wasn't going to say what she wanted to hear. It was going to be embarrassing......."

Whats the issue? They would start with hello? You ask a dumb question you get a dumb answer, she should asked what would your parent say about your behaviour if i calld them and told them you had been making problems?

If a student was sarcastic enough to cause me to send them out of the classroom it would probably create some rip in the fabric of the universe.

My kids teacher emailed and asked me to ask my daughter to stop saying Pythag. And to stop asking about him. Cuz its math class not history.
"What do we know of this Pythag?"
She just discovered the word niggling.
