The humor in this situation stems from the absurdity of an indie developer's overreaction, exemplified by his comically aggressive decision to send a "cease and desist" letter via email to a reviewer, showcasing both his hot-headedness and the desperation of his attempt to silence criticism.
“This developer took out his frustrations on ETP by filing a 'cease and desist' letter that he actually emailed to him. Hilarious, I know!”
“You can see how hot-headed this indie developer is and his hilarious and desperate attempt to bully English Teacher Plays (ETP) into removing his review and video.”
