This whole post is kind of arrogant and self-important. If you'd read the thread you'd realize that 1) it wasn't just a case of 4 or 5 people in an office thinking it was hilarious, a lot of people (including myself) found it funny even if you didn't and 2) the first few comments in this thread took a cute little ancillary joke that the office staff thought they'd share with their friends on the boards and DID use it as a mandate against everything they do ("Bar lowered," "is this what CHUD has become?" etc).
Instead of telling the staff what they should realize, maybe some of you dudes should realize that not everything done is going to work for you and if you don't like something just let it ride and let others enjoy it as they see fit, rather than take your respective high-horses (even if they're well-intentioned high horses) out for a test drive.
