I honestly think you didn't think before sending your reaction. 

How can you possibly call 'lolwut' an '...honest reflection on the
inaccessibility of the discourse explaining the platform'?

My understanding of constructive criticism doesn't match what you said
('lolwut'). Additionally, *constructive* criticism is never done "in
jest":

 Constructive criticism is the process of offering valid and
 well-reasoned opinions about the work of others, usually involving both
 positive and negative comments, in a friendly manner rather than an
 oppositional one. In collaborative work, this kind of criticism is often
 a valuable tool in raising and maintaining performance standards.

seriously, troll elsewhere...
