I find a lot of humour here in the &quot;standup is supposed to be short, standing up emphasizes this&quot; as a kind of fradenscheude commentary on the typically unhealthy office workplace environment of sitting down in front of a computer screen all day. I have a stand-up desk and spend most of my day standing, and I realize this is a luxury most people do not have, but I do find humour in the implicit space in your comment about standing being a kind of chore.
