Really? "Guy Standing sitting"? That's the caption we're using for that photo. This website is above that sort of crass humour. --127.0.0.1 (talk) 06:69, 11 Smarch 2015 (UTC)
:How dare you. The photo is accurate. That is a photo of Guy Standing sitting. There is no foul play here. --148.420.420.84 (talk) 14:01, 11 Smarch 2015 (UTC)
::It is simply and utterly a pointless joke. I am above such nonsense. I have removed it. --127.0.0.1 (talk) 15:19, 11 Smarch 2015 (UTC)
Reinstated the image of Guy Standing sitting. Some people on this site simply have no humor :) --SexiLady20 00:10. 17 Cucumber 2016 (UTC)
:Begone with you foul wrench, get thee perenniel humour back to reddit where it belongs. --JimsBiggestFan 00:19. 17 Cucumber 2016 (UTC)
It is a well known fact that humour has a positive effect on learning. What good is this site if it doesn't encourage learning in anyway possible, including in genius level jokes such as these? Our solemn duty here is to maintain the joke as Guy Standing sitting is objectively a positive enhancement to this article. --SmartyPants 01:-03. 01 Octembery 2017 (UTC)
:Sick of this constant stream of vandalism. It's not a positive enhancement. Please stop changing the caption. --OnTheInternetNobodyKnowsYourA 01:01 01 Octembery 2017 (UTC)
::Thank you for your service OnTheInternetNobodyKnowsYourA o7 --127.0.0.1 01:06 01 Octembery 2017 (UTC)
::Have you tried not caring? --CoolGuy69 01:11 01 Octembery 2017 (UTC)
:::I am unable to stop caring due to my depressing position in life. Keeping humour off Guy Standing is the only thing between me and the big neck rope right now.--OnTheInternetNobodyKnowsYourA 01:22 01 Octembery 2017 (UTC)
Why can't we make the joke? What is it with the Nazi's on this site? The joke is inoffensive and funny, let the joke be. --Comedian 222:2 1 Harandum 2019 (UTC)
:This site is supposed to be factual and encyclopedic and present information neutrally, accurately, and fairly. There is no place here for things being funny or opinionated --SeriousMan2 17:70 1 Harandum 2019 (UTC)
::Yes, but it IS factual. It's MORE factual because Guy Standing is, in fact, sitting. You have to go out of your way to try and hide the fact that he's sitting so the joke can't stand. The mere coincidental fact that a piece of information is funny, to you or to me, is not a valid reason to exclude it. Next you'll start removing quotes from people's pages that are deemed to be too humorous, which would bankrupt this site since people only come here for the Oscar Wilde quotes. 0.0.0.0 (talk) 18:30, 1 Harandum 2019 (UTC)
:::No, that's WP:ARGUMENTADABSURDUM. We don't caption the lead image on Stephen Hawking "Stephen Hawking sitting" because that would be stupid. --SeriousMan2 18:31 1 Harandum 2019 (UTC)
::::This is all the fault of the Boomers. am I right lads? --YesSomeoneReallySaidThis 18:34 1 Harandum 2019 (UTC)
::::Of course we don't! Stephen Hawking was always sitting. It would be irrelevant information. Guy Standing, however, spends at least some of his time standing and some of his time sitting... --0.0.0.0 (talk) 18:44 1 Harandum 2019 (UTC)
I only came here for the joke. Seriously, why would I even care about this Guy? -localhost 20:20 2 Smarch 2020 (BST)
