Especially with niche internet culture like here on Lemmy. Very few people understand the “highly sophisticated” bean memes we’ve got.
“So a guy asking how not to shit for a weekend was funny for a whole month?”
When you put it that way we sound weird!
Wait, there’s actual context behind the bean memes? I’ve been missing out.
The not shitting guy came before the beans. The beans were mindless. The not shitting guy was an enigma.
I have been around when the bean meme came and I still don’t know how that meme started.
Someone stole it from Reddit who stole it from Instagram.
The best memes are buried in 6 layers of irony and meta-references.
And accessed via a proxy of 6 VPNs
What the fuck did you just say about me?
Got some reference material?
Is this loss?
I consider Loss to be common knowledge at this point
Which is why it’s a great meme to bury in six layers of irony and meta-references.

THE NUMBERS, MASON
Explaining loss humor is impossible
So like, she had a miscarriage and is crying about it and her boyfriend makes it just in time to see the results and uh yeah it’s the funniest thing ever why are you leaving
No, wait, it gets better. Get this. Circle jerk about it for a couple of decades and it gets funnier, oh, OK, still going.
Saddam meme too.

Oh no there’s a bear in my bed!
Nope!
Honestly, things like that remind me how vast the internet is. There are some things that I think are just ubiquitous that my friend has never heard of before. She had never heard of Creepy Pastas. She had never seen Long Long Man. She didn’t know what an SCP was. I was baffled. Made me think about my own digital world, and what sources I may be completely blind to.

Is this loss?
I tried explaining to a SO why stappling bread to trees was funny or why “Cat.” was peak humor.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone questioning my sanity and theirs by association this clearly in any other conversation.

yeah…
especially if they don’t know what a trans person is
Who doesn’t know what a trans person is?
You’d be surprised lol
One of the funniest that shows just how little people know is this, a conversation I heard from someone like a month ago: “[name] is nonbinary, she uses they/them pronouns right?”
for context this is a Gen z person, not even a retired grandma who doesn’t go around queer people at all, there was a group of really fruity folk next to them about dieing for their whole conversationdies from cringe
