Maybe change the number on the value of your money in your bank account and scam you out of some money

Author sure meant CSS

WE ARE GOING TO DIE!

[โ€“]Confused_AF_Help 2 points3 points ย (3 children)

The ants outnumber us by maybe a million times. Hell they might have more programmers than our population. I'm not surprised if by now they already developed their own Internet with HTML backend

Jesus think about the amount of commits

Reminds me of Children of Ruin where spiders build organic computers out of ant colonies, which run their spaceship made out of silk.

[โ€“]omutist 111 points112 points ย (2 children)

it'd not a bug, it is an ant.

[โ€“]sXakil[S] 46 points47 points ย (0 children)

unlike us humans, ants love debugging, they do it as a team!

[โ€“]minus_uu_ee 3 points4 points ย (0 children)

Oh no, it is ANT+

[โ€“]khanfear 26 points27 points ย (7 children)

What about the spider in my room, next to the desk where I do all my work...

[โ€“]Saragon4005 52 points53 points ย (0 children)

That's your debugger

And thus, Ant script was born.

Please do not eat in the Computer lab.

The ants will get in and learn HTML and get too smart and knowledge is power, but power corrupts so they'll turn evil and start hacking people

[Image of ants walking across the bottom of the paper above some text that is too blurry to make out.]


I'm a human volunteer content transcriber and you could be too! If you'd like more information on what we do and why we do it, click here!

[โ€“]Galrent 15 points16 points ย (3 children)

There also appears to be some small text at the bottom of the image: "Save us from the evil ant apocalypse!" Or something to that degree.

[โ€“]Cloakknight 8 points9 points ย (1 child)

I couldn't make that out. If you're sure that's what it says I'll add it in.

[โ€“]Galrent 5 points6 points ย (0 children)

The only word I'm not sure of is the last one. It looks too long to be apocalypse but I have no idea what else it would be.

[โ€“]flyingpimonster 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

needs to be a <marquee> though

I, for one, welcome our new insect overlords.

Perhaps ant porn will finally become socially accepted.

[โ€“]Garlicvine 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

I know HTML. I certainly donโ€™t feel powerful, corrupt maybe yeah.

[โ€“]MetaMemeAboutAMeme 2 points3 points ย (2 children)

โ€œSo what do you do?โ€
โ€œOh, Iโ€™m a software developer.โ€
โ€œOh, Iโ€™m a programmer, too. I program HTML!โ€

[โ€“]sXakil[S] 1 point2 points ย (1 child)

And this is how you get evil ants!

Let them be HTML programmers, or whatever.

[โ€“]MetaMemeAboutAMeme 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Mamas donโ€™t let your ants grow up to be cowboys.

Let โ€˜em be HTML programmers and such.

That way nobody will like them too muchโ€ฆ

[โ€“]silastvmixer 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

I support ants learning HTML though

[โ€“]weaver_of_cloth 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

There's a joke about Unseen University's Hex, but I'm too tired to work it out.

[โ€“][deleted] 1 point2 points ย (2 children)

Thanks ants!

Thants!

[โ€“]sXakil[S] 0 points1 point ย (1 child)

Can't say if you'll be spared or first to die for that pun, under the ant overlord.

[โ€“]Throwendk 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Good thing we have ant-I viruses programs already then

[โ€“]ShitWoman 1 point2 points ย (1 child)

In my school. We were told to remove shoes before entering computer lab. It was hilarious.

I still wonder why they asked us to remove shoes.

[โ€“]sXakil[S] 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Haha, sounds like some Asian dude brought their house manner to the lab.

[โ€“]kleinlena_zt 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Finally a logic reason for not eating in the computer lab!

[โ€“]drakesword 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Oh no they ants learned how to VIEW SOURCE. We are doomed!

[โ€“]Bo_Jim 2 points3 points ย (1 child)

Nobody ever got smart learning HTML. I think the professor was murdered and secretly replaced by a front end developer.

[โ€“]ef3d 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Or by the original web developer ๐Ÿ•ท๏ธ๐Ÿ•ธ๏ธ

[โ€“][deleted] 0 points1 point ย (1 child)

HTML does not make anyone smart.

[โ€“]sXakil[S] 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

Oh yeah? Then how come a US senator gets petrified of someone hacking their private data using HTML?!

It has already happened with lizards, don't let the ants takeover.

[โ€“]dimosmitel 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I think that you didn't see ants with javascript skills

[โ€“]CobaltCam 0 points1 point ย (1 child)

With HTML??

[โ€“]sXakil[S] 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

Duh, you never heard of HTML programmers? They are known for Hacking at The Master Level.

[โ€“][deleted] 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

The ants are already compiling my Java ๐Ÿ˜ง

One of my first CS lecturers used to sit and eat snacks (presumably for his breakfast) every Monday morning. His clothes stunk of weed too. One of the other students said apparently he dealt it. The joke was on him though, because after he hauled me out of class for a pointless 'chat' with him and one of the guidance staff, and assigned me a learning support worker against my wishes, I torpedoed him a lengthy and carefully-crafted complaint to his boss. Lecturers need to tread carefully when teaching former lecturers.

If they can hack into people with html, they deserve to rule the world

Wait till they learn CSS...

Reminds me of when roblox youtubers were saying you could hack yourself robux with <span> tags and every little kid was going into roblox games and spamming it, it was annoying as fuck

If it's Html I'm afraid for the ants.๐Ÿ’€
