On: Bill Gates pledges 120 million to boost African, Indian farmers

But it's all dirty Micro$oft money! That can't be good!

[Technophilis → kyro]

How do you define "good" ?

[kyro → Technophilis]

The same way you'd define "sarcasm," I imagine.

[indranil → kyro]

Well, it's Bill Gates' Microsoft money, so it's actually the good part... remember when MS used to be the good guys taking on the big guys?

[mahmud → indranil]

"good" and "big" are not mutually exclusive.

I love how everyone on HN is so well-versed in sarcasm.

</sarcasm>

Vote parent up. Sarcasm is an art in danger of dying.

[philjackson → ComputerGuru]

But it also wasn't funny, or should we just vote up arbitrary sarcasm?

[ComputerGuru → philjackson]

Not necessarily. But it shouldn't be at minus 2 :)
