You missed the point of the meme...

no i was trying to show my method for avoiding that. i get the joke but i was also trying to be actually helpful

I can't for the life of me figure out how your proposed method helps in the described scenario.

Maybe I misunderstood it, can you elaborate?

With your method, as soon as you hit control+C, the program is terminated.

Or what are you doing to avoid the program being terminated?
