Anyway the thing that really upsets me about the fight with Morgana is that Morgana had been consistently shitty to Ryuji from the very beginning. He is constantly berating Ryuji and calling him names and yet somehow it’s Ryuji’s fault for the entire fight and he’s the one who has to apologize???? Like ya Ryuji was shitty to Morgana too but it kills me that it’s always Ryuji who’s the problem. Leave my sweet boy alone
I wonder how many of these we would have to send before his security level would rise…
I half-assed this but I’ve been wanting to do it for a while! What if people who strongly oppose Trump flooded the White House inbox with these? I can’t even imagine hahaha
Nigh on twenty years knowing about this riddle, and IT NEVER OCCURRED TO ME THIS MIGHT BE THE ANSWER.
FUCKING CHRIST
Given Poe’s wordwide fame and the date of his death (1849) compared to the year Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland was published (1865), coupled with Carroll’s age at the time and the stylistic similarities between the Alice books and Poe’s stories that point to a literary influence from Poe to Carroll, this theory is actually extremely plausible. In fact, this is one of the best and most logical answers to the riddle I think I’ve ever read.
My answer was “they both produce notes, though they are very flat” but this, this is so good!
I’ve said “I hate this” so many times on this website, and never actually meant it, because “I hate this” is just shorthand for ‘this is an example of a meme given a twist I wasn’t expecting with intent to surprise’. Which is, in of itself, a meme on this site. God damn it.
But this… This is something else.
The rapidity of a meme’s introduction to its zenith to its decline is so rapid that in ten years, you’ll need a damn twenty-page manual to explain this. It’ll be as unfunny and hard to explain as jokes in Shakespeare plays, except even more inexplicable because fuck, at least Shakespeare’s jokes are usually about anal or fucking your mother, good wholesome sex jokes we can all get behind.
For the love of fuck, how do you explain loss.jpg? How do you explain gun?
….I THOUGHT THIS WAS A YMCA REFERENCE
it is a YMCA reference - that’s one of the 6 memes being represented here
ok let me see if i can break this down easily. YMCA is the easiest place to start - the song itself has become a meme over time with people changing the lyrics to reference other pop cultural events. so YMCA is meme one (1)
this first lyric replacement (”take the breadsticks and run”) is a reference to the tumblr meme ‘stuffing breadsticks into my purse’. i think everyone remembers that one so i wont bother to explain it. that’s meme two (2)
“man door hand hook car door” is a meme of its own, a creepypasta from i dont remember when. it was a terrible stupid retelling of the generic ‘stuck in a car while hook handed man tries to kill us’ story so the stupid title caught on for memorability. that in and of itself is meme three (3)
‘gun’ is… yeah i dont know how to explain gun. long story short you add gun to the end of a phrase instead of what you expect the last word to be. its shock funny. its everywhere but its popular to add to “man door hand hook car door” for.. some reason? gun is meme four (4)
and the thing is, this four meme combo is something thats gone around before. meme combos are, itself, a meme. which means taking this meme combo and mixing in another meme actually becomes meme five (5)
which leaves us at loss.jpg. loss.jpg was a terrible bad comic supposed to be about some tragic event, but it was presented so poorly literally no one takes it seriously, and for some reason recreating the four-panel setup has become popular. so thats meme six (6)
(but i need to add that this is the greatest version of loss.jpg i think i’ve ever seen. the initial ‘young man’ lines up with the guy bursting through the door, and the shock meme ‘gun’ matches the shock scene of the woman in the hospital and idk if OP even thought about that but it makes this just so much better)
People are going to have fucking degrees in this shit and I’m dying.
