The difference is this one was obviously a Skweezy Jibs level joke instead of a weird subversion of the "what the gently caress are you talking about" meme
The joke wasn't that inscrutable. Literally the text guides you through it.

I wouldn't give a poo poo about a middling at best joke, but the way people reacted really reinforces that, to most cis people, there's only one way to be trans, and that's being born with a penis. This isn't the fault of trans women, this is on cis people.

A lot of the people here aren't as progressive as they tell themselves. It stings a bit.

I really don't think that's what it is.

I think people assumed posts itt would include a joke or humor of some kind. The positive reading of that meme story is... not that. It's blessed or whatever you want to call it but what's supposed to be funny about a straightforward reading of a supportive conversation about transition?


If a bunch of well meaning people misinterpret a piece of communication, it's a flawed piece of communication that could use some workshopping.

fwiw I understood it the first time but yes it did not appear to have a joke in it, so just sort of read it and that's it.

but I also haven't seen breaking bad so I dunno

Dr. Leon Adoso Sumbitches (prounounced soom-'beh-cheh) (born January 21, 1935) is heir to the legendary Adoso family oil fortune.





The joke is that the images are reappropriation from a show about casual violence and using other humans to further your own means. The subversion of this meaning through the text is supposedly the punch line, but it's not exactly haha funny.

Neither are most of the memes in this thread, btw.

You can't tell me that Batman isn't a little bit psychotic, so hearing voices is not out of the realm of possibilities.

There was an episode of Batman Beyond where a villain tried to drive Bruce Wayne crazy by making him hear voices through some high tech transmitter device. It didn't work because it called him Bruce.
