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.
Enigma? You mean enema?
No, enemas do the opposite of that
but ideally you would start something like that by clearing any buffer, you know?
I have been around when the bean meme came and I still don’t know how that meme started.
Nobody does but we all just pretend
Someone stole it from Reddit who stole it from Instagram.
Or the orb-pocalypse
Or the jeans era
You mean the memes about the small misshapen orbs?
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?
where saddam

Ima send this to all the people who love “Roman history”.
Got you bro !roughromanmemes@lemmy.world
I love it.
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.
I still don’t understand how it’s funny
I think it
's(Edit: started out) more about how Tim Buckley is terrible than anything. (Edit: Then from there it) sort of collapsed into its own joke.I think it’s more about how people on the internet are terrible than anything. It sort of collapsed.
I think the joke is terrible people being terrible to terrible people when a genuinely terrible thing happens in their lives.
As long as everyone is terrible, I’m in.
if only there were more staggeringly interesting queer women with red/green colorblindness who held this opinion.
That seems oddly specific.
Its not “haha!” funny, but rather “aha!” funny.
I think it’s more for fun than funny. Like The Game or the 👌.
Saddam meme too.

Memes are art.
Me explaining why anything is the way it is at work…
Well you see…before I started they had this hare-brained idea, and I’ve been trying to fix it every year since.
My career has been long enough that in hindsight I’ve been the one with the harebrained idea and I swear it was a good idea at the time!
At the time it was the best way to duct tape over someone else’s long-forgotten but recently uncovered cut corner.
And so the cycle continues.
It’s the circle of life and it moves us all.
Aha! We’ve cut so many corners it’s rounded into a circle!
Did we win or lose?
This is the bad thing about finding a good employer…the type you feel okay staying at a long time because they treat you well, the pay is reasonable and the benefits are great.
That’s where I’m at now, and I’m starting to get bit in the ass by my own harebrained ideas, too.
There are tiers? I must not be an internet person.
the tiers are just that user’s headcanon, actually memes are on a spectrum of interdependency
memes are on a spectrum
Autistic memes are lit tho
you’re not a person?
Ceiling cat haz contempt for your puny 7 years of historical warez. Leave Brittany alone with your shallow funnies.
Leave Brittany alone
OG reference right there.
… Britney. Britney.
Christ, that meme’s old enough to drop bombs on Yemen.
Ceiling cat encourages your masturbation to Britney.
Frosted butts
I usually don’t have a hard time explaining referencial humor when it’s, like, an older movie that was super popular in my day to a younger person who hasn’t seen it; but memes are often inexplicable unless you just know.

You forgot the strikethrough for the four panels

so uh this guy once ordered a pizza with no toppings but only beef on the left side and that’s why I have a 40-year-old man’s face on my shirt with a pizza background.
I often laugh about things that are not always funny haha but sometimes horrible nonsense. So now when I laugh about it, my wife gives me the “do I want to know or not” look and I have an escape route to tell her its not really something funny or something she wouldn’t think is funny
You sonofabitch, I’m in.
So there’s this kid and it’s about a heist parody…wait let me start over. Theres this show with a smart old guy and a kid, kinda like back to the future, but like…
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.
At least I know what SCP is. I use it sometimes.
not an internet person
This phrase confuses me.
I think they mean not clinically online.
Chronically. But clinically works too.
I’m chronically online to a sub-clinical degree. I have a friend who is terminally online.
Me being clinically online:
