I know Facebook shares are extra-low hanging fruit, but COME THE gently caress ON PEOPLE



Poe's law is really messing with me on that one.

On the one hand this is just too dumb and cliché to be unironic.

On the other hand this is Facebook. :psyduck:

I think it's meant to be a response to this one, e: entitled "A baby just handed me this on my flight. I ain't mad.":



Yeah definitely. Those ones have been around for a while under different forms. The parody one is apparently from r/circlejerk which seems to be kinda like r/shitredditsays in that they make fun at how dumb the rest of reddit is. I can get behind that notion.

Each time I hear "This is gold", "You won't believe what she did", "his reaction is amazing" or any other phrase of the time I get irrationally angry behind my screen and just want to punch the author in his face.

Also goddamn it this story is obviously supposed to be a dumb joke what with the nervous breakdown and all that. Why are they trying to pass this off as something that happened. Who would believe that ?

Where the gently caress are you goons finding those troper tales, I thought TV Tropes was just to index dumb poo poo about videogames and furry fanfic.

Haha no, tropers love making up poo poo about themselves. It's on the forums that go with the site iirc? Though it has been discouraged in recent times I think.

Yeah I know, sometimes even imgur calls them out on it (though rest assured, most of the comments still believe it's an actual story), but in the end the dude who uploaded it probably still did so thinking it was a believable story.
