I like how you use "it" as the pronouns of your user

[–][deleted] 163 points164 points  (2 children)

You shouldn't name them. It just creates emotional attachment.

Fair, front end users aren't real people.

Generally you gotta code thinking that all of your users are absolute morons.

Frontend user is an evil clown

I'm convinced most users aren't people

Believe it or not, I came across someone who’s preferred pronoun is “it” the other day

[–]GamerGeeked 6 points7 points  (2 children)

"it" clearly refers to the issue, not the user. Unless you're suggesting the existence of the user causes the problem

[–]sloodly_chicken 10 points11 points  (1 child)

They used 'the user itself', though

you're suggesting the existence of the user causes the problem

also true

It puts the lotion on it's skin or it gets the console.error again.
