A man has fallen into the river in Lego City

Image looks gross

They get elected?

Joke’s on them, I already stole all of the fire extinguishers in the courthouse

Sigh… You’re being difficultly obdurate and pedantic. Let’s say “No overtly and/or directly political memes” then.

Dark blue scribble

There are suitable subforums for most of those, but they’re typically bothersome in a general meme page for both audiences and mods

I’m finding no matches for this image or some text on it, so it seems like you made this meme and posted it onto a forum which has only a couple of those criteria as its actual rules. Is this just bad faith smear campaigning to stir shit against this community and/or its mods?

Rule 3 is also the only one of these rules that is the slightest bit dubious. The rest are justifiable for most audiences and mod teams, assuming there’d be a reasonable time limit to when reposting would be permissible.

I have enmity for that first COVID-19 virion that found its way to where it shouldn’t be

What if I’m in my Job era and I think that God hates me more than everyone else?

I understood that much. Take it up with [email protected] for what their interpretation requires.

The set dressing either should have been communicated clearer to not be confusing or wholly omitted.

“call” is a transitive verb.

“from” is a preposition.

Words have meaning. Grammar has a purpose. The joke-teller is necessarily within the store making a call to an unspecified “her” for unspecified reasons and we know this via the rare skill known as reading. Just because a vocal plurality of people interpret a Rorschach inkblot test or a Jackson Pollock painting as a specific message, that does not make those pieces mean anything, let alone any specific one thing or analogous things.

Ok, then a person who uses “her” as a pronoun rather than exclusively a woman.

All other criteria are essential to meet the apparent meaning of the joke.

I thought this was an actual photo of Bananarea 51

Counterpoint: I am tired of this earth. These people. I am tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives.

Vine, Tiktok, etc are all just finally sinking into the swamp that is the internet.

They’re already on the internet. Well, except for Vine since that site has been toast for a while now.

you just never participated in the real internet

What does that even mean?

Yes, that’s why the first thing I said was asking if it was meant to be comprehensible because I could not parse a clear and singular intent behind it for reasons I’ve already mentioned. “Incomprehensible” is a genre of media, especially for TikTok.

Nope. I’ve deleted Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit each about 3 years ago. I will give you that Vine and TikTok have historically ticked those boxes, which is why I never had any reason to use them. Companies found that more engagement means more ad money and more sellable user data, and content that is problematic or superficial tends to provide more engagement, or bad actors intentionally poison the well of content for their own agenda. People also bring that profit-motivated content onto other sites, including sites without a profit motive. Yes, there definitely were these problems everywhere online since the beginning, but the way they breakdown our language, ways of communicating, and understanding has been manufactured to become more severe.

I’d understand the scenario and perhaps even find it funny if the joke-teller were to provide the essential context

The joke is so poorly phrased that you inverted the roles of who is shopping
