You think being a human is violating the norms of a community to satisfy one's base urges. This is just selfish unthinking arrogance.
You piled on more useless snark but didn't actually make the point you wanted to because you snarked.
You see human beings typically when they congregate and communicate express humor and emotion. Snark, being a form of humor and free expression, is more human than what Hacker News expects, which is that every comment be optimized for information density and "value" and positivity.
