That's not how you use the format-
Is it not? I have only ever seen it used like this.
I'm assuming they are referring to the fact that this is an unironic usage of a format that typically contains an ironic message. But I think this format is used to express counter narratives of all kinds, both serious and unserious, so I wouldn't call this an incorrect usage. I mean, the format already has some bone hurting juice energy to start with, so I think gatekeeping its usage is maybe outside of the spirit of the template
Well, it was used like this.
Haha yeah, that’s like validating traffic engineers but I get the spirit of the message
