Deere has been utter garbage for a while. Any piece of equipment they made (until recently) had software preventing replacement parts from being installed without a verified tech from their company (for whom you had to pay travel expenses for as well) turning what could have been a $20 home repair job into a decision to forgo a harvest or enjoy your farm going into debt.
I’ve been the butt of many a joke. Some even especially mean and personal. I also do the same to my own friends. This is something one of us would say to eachother and not expect to be especially painful. I don’t know, maybe I am just not too sensitive and don’t hang with a sensitive crowd but I feel like we tend to be emotionally supportive and apologetic if things go too far as well. Idk but this is pretty fucking tame as a meme.
