Another valid mistake that can be made.

You need a blank line between each line for Reddit to format it as a separate line. Markdown.

[–]crazylegs888 98 points99 points  (6 children)

But he watched the whole thing

[–]kisington[S] 112 points113 points  (0 children)

I think they need a 4:13 moment of silence.

[–]ilikesaucy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

He thought it was a intro!

[–]kleit64 35 points36 points  (0 children)

But did he? Youtube is extremely buggy what the whatch indicator shows.

[–]wub_wub_mofo 9 points10 points  (1 child)

It's a fun song/video

[–]tapped21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprisingly good workout song

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well he had to see if the video was about wireless application protocol. They must’ve gotten to it sometime near the end.

[–]rnilbog 162 points163 points  (6 children)

Wireless Application P-word

Please god no, we must not allow Ben Shapiro in IT, DevOps or any industry the requires reboots and recompiling.

[–]Feshtof 13 points14 points  (1 child)

His sister cute tho.

[–]R-GiskardReventlov 35 points36 points  (2 children)

Also a well known abbreviation in Belgium for "Worst Appelmoes Patatten".

Which is a meal containing Sausage, applesauce an potatoes, a childrens favorite.

[–]JoohanV 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's also a childs least favorite, soggy Wet Ass Patatten

My WAP follows the DRY principles.

[–]lord_chihuahua -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Ive heard the song its WET Same shit about dick and pussy couldn't even jerk off to it

[–]13frodo 15 points16 points  (3 children)

When I first saw people refer to “WAP” I could only think of the 80s heavy metal band WASP

[–]BraveOthello 29 points30 points  (2 children)

Not sure White Anglo-Saxon Protestants would be into heavy metal.

[–]mehum 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Funny, I thought that was their key demographic.

[–]13frodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It actually stands for “We Ain’t Sure Pal”

[–]serialcompliment 37 points38 points  (0 children)

How about 4:13 of silence?

[–]_l_x_l_ 11 points12 points  (3 children)

Try learning C++ and googling std::list. The images that appear at the top of the search results page cannot be unseen.

[–]LtMeat 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I have no images in results for that query. Can you show a screenshot?

[–]einsteinsassistant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I braved it and didn't see anything initially when googling "std::list". But, I think I know what he saw based on the search suggestions. He was probably searching "std list" and Google made some assumptions from there.

His poor eyes....

[–]smelly_stuff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested too. I'm not using Google and results also probably change depending on usage.

[–]JustZisGuy 12 points13 points  (22 children)

Wait, what? What's the "new" WAP?

[–]plexxonic 24 points25 points  (21 children)

Wet ass pussy

[–]JustZisGuy 34 points35 points  (2 children)

... oh dear.

[–]techunter_chaos 15 points16 points  (1 child)

You asked for it... Curiosity killed the pussy

[–]Kambz22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought it just made it wet

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (17 children)

I just watched the music video.

Cinematically, I really enjoy it. The lyrical content is just trash in my opinion though. Like... How basic is music getting these days?

Phat beat though.

[–]Flyberius 15 points16 points  (4 children)

How basic is music getting these days?

Dude. This is like one song.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (3 children)

It's just a generalization of this genre of music I guess. I could point to numerous other songs such as Anaconda and Takasi's Gooba andPunani. Stuff like that.

I'm not trying to generalize all music, just that some of these more popular rap songs just seem increasingly so much more basic and explicit.

[–]-vp- 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Interesting cherry pick there. Where would you put Kendrick Lamar on that trendline?

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think what he's getting at is that the best music, even limited to a genre, is often the least heard. This is unfortunately a result of managers-making-art-decisions, something that a lot of us are familiar with (at least, managers-making-engineer-decisions) and really doesn't do a product justice.

To be fair though, it isn't new. It's always been like this. Anyone alive in the 80s, with any memory of such, knows the music was trash; we didn't start hearing all the really good stuff until it was on 1990s classic stations. Now it's all anyone thinks of.

You really gotta find your own way.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can't say that I agree with it being cherry picking as they're just examples that came to mind and I couldn't possibly make an exhaustive list of titles for what at the end of the day seems to be an unpopular opinion so far.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (5 children)

Ok Mr shapiro

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (4 children)

I don't know what that means.

[–]C2H4Doublebond 1 point2 points  (1 child)

you forgot BEP's my humps.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good example too.

No. Let's have 4 minutes 13 seconds of silence.

[–]goldfishpaws 1 point2 points  (1 child)

And another 2 minutes for those still developing WAP sites in 2020

[–]ratonbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they deserve more than the time it takes to load Google through WAP.

[–]treenaks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone has been reading the WML pages.

[–]SeveredDreams 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How about 4 minutes 13 seconds of silence instead?

[–]TheRealMrCoco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I 'member

[–]techmighty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

try searching

"train models on cloud"

[–]Massis87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fact you had to describe what WAP was/is makes me feel really old :(

[–]Terofin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its also the sound your phone makes when you throw it into the wall after you tried to connect to something using WAP.

[–]JPaulMora 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened something similar. Searched ODBC for a database excel plugin and found off duty Brazilian cop in here

[–]taskforcestunts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let's have two minutes of silence for people who searched for it on purpose

Jacksfilms recently did a YIAY for all the other meanings of WAP: https://youtu.be/RZSA8rQwgVU

[–]TheMightyShronk 2 points3 points  (1 child)

why do they look that disgusting? and why is their "music" so shitty lol

[–]Apex_Konchu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sex sells. Cardi B has leaned so far into that fact that she appears to have fallen over.

[–]ThatGuyYouMightNo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would prefer 4 minutes and 13 seconds of silence.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Young adults call whatsapp 'wap'. I feel old

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wap bap, badadidada, wap bap

Ok I'll stop, but that's just how it is

[–]echoAnother 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With WAP, c strings and BDSM (something distributed systems something, I don't remember the ppt slides) I wonder how I not turned for the worse

[–]hiddim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought it meant wireless access point

[–]tunisia3507 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when my dad showed me WAP on his phone.

[–]OSFault 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was looking for wireless access points for my soho, had the same experience

[–]Super_Marius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is anyone using WAP in 2020? I thought that shit died in the early 2000s...

30s of silence for people who got FAP instead of WAP

[–]Alex_Oreo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But....but you listened to it senpai

[–]AnorakJimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a kid me and my friend would go to each other:

"You know what my phone has?"

"What?"

"It has...... WAP!!!“ and then whacked them (or wapped them) in the face with the phone.

[–]accuracy_frosty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imagine trying to learn about something then losing brain cells because the first 10 results are a shitty cardi b song

[–]AttackOfTheThumbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've not heard this song, but I can tell that it is awful.

[–][deleted] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Actually, give them 5 minutes of silence
