One entry would be unintentionally funny, I give you that. 5/ what, 30 entries? That's a pattern.

It’s as much of a pattern as throwing a D6 30 times and getting “1” 5 times. It’s not meaningful, there’s no provable intentionality behind it.

The ones that are funny aren’t even particularly so. Many of them are actually plausible HN submissions which we’re only interpreting as funny because we know they’re not real.
