(⬤ᴥ⬤)every generation loves it's brainrot
[deleted] in lemmyMonty Python bits were funny!
They are still funny, but they were then too.
IamsqueegeeIn with the Hedberg, too. Noice.
But they made their bread with nonsense, though! It was absurdism at it’s finest.
I fart in your general direction!
That parrot is no more! It has ceased to be! It is an ex-parrot!
He’s just pinin’ for the fjords

jelloeater85I … But… Whatttttt
edgemaster72But I grew up only 1 degree removed from nerds incessantly quoting Monty Python at each other, so obviously that’s the sweet spot and everything past that is bad and wrong
I think this round is where I’ve peaced out, but part of me is interested to see what comes next
agamemnonymousI somehow missed the MLG phase, but everything else makes sense to me
JackbyDevMy brother in law sent this to my wife and I on our honeymoon and we drunkenly watched it in bed together.
As an old fart, I like saying some of the brainrot to Gen Alphas that I know so that it makes them cringe hard.
Semi related, but my mum likes to pretend she doesn’t know what ‘Netflix and chill’ means. She keeps saying it to people. One time I said mum please google that phrase. She said she’s well aware of the meaning and just likes to see people’s reactions.
Real life trolling is much more fun!
You can turn an entire party against you by insisting jaws is a documentary.
I mean, but it is, right? I mean, clearly re-enacted, but…
No they literally had a documentary crew with them when they were trying to solve the case.
Oh! Yes, of course.
Gradually_AdjustingOh okay. Cool
I enjoyed all of that, so maybe I just like braindead bullshit.
I almost went into academia.
My friends and I still quote Monty Python to each other. Embrace tradition.
I love that they keep coming up with dumb slang cause there’s only so much mileage you can get out of the dumb slang you had growing up.
Monty Python’s Flying Circus
KazuyaDarklightComma’s people, we have them for a reason!
Commas. The comma possesses nothing so why the apostrophe?
The comma possesses my love and admiration, and the apostrophe deserves love too.
loves its* brainrot
It annoys me so much that the “proper” way to do possessive it is “its” instead of “it’s”.
Of the two versions it makes sense that the one that is combining two words into a contraction takes the apostrophe. Makes sense to me anyway, it’s how I remember.
I see no reason why contractions should get dibs on apostrophes.
Contractions are obviously supreme over possessives. Do your own research.
RivalarrivalHomonyms are where two words are spelled the same, yet carry different meanings. Both the possessive and contractive “it’s” are now homonyms. I have spoken.
Agreed. The possessive and contractions should be homonyms, both carrying the apostrophe. “Its” would be the nonsensical plural form of an inherently singular word: “This “it”, that “it”, and those “its” over there…”.
The good news is that all words are made up. We can, indeed, use the same “it’s” for both the possessive form of “it” and the contraction of “it is”.

People who “make” a lot of memes are the internet equivalent of that really obnoxious kid in middle school in the 90s who couldn’t go a full five minutes without quoting the Simpsons/South Park/SpongeBob.
On a side note, what’s the show(s) that obnoxious middle schoolers quote nowadays? Can’t imagine it’s still those 3
RivenProbably Rick and morty, skibidi toilet and bluey
Haha, I’m Pickle Rick! Please laugh
Punctuation. Use it.
An Hero. Become one.
(That’s not actually directed at you; you reminded me of the meme. Don’t actually become an hero.)
It’s strange as a german zoomer who grew up watching Gronkh
Eyyyyy waddup?
LaunchesKayaksOh shit waddup!?
Dat Boi is unironically my fave meme.
Unfortunately, Dat Boi was part of the capitol riot on January 6th. smh my head rip in peace.
Bro what. No… No…
Skibidi-nii
I’m in this picture and I don’t like it
Also, are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
Leate_WonceslaceI don’t know if I should be more proud or disgusted that I was able to parse that entire thing.
Well, I’m proud of you, Internet stranger.
It is sad how many “is just the latest” I read before I figured out what was going on.
My favorite piece of text from a few years ago that I was disgusted to be able to parse was “Shrimp cereal Topanga husband is a Me Too milkshake duck.”
Maybe it’s because I’m slipping into a migraine, but I’m going to need that one explained to me.
Danielle Fishel, the actress who played the character Topanga Lawrence on the show Boy Meets World, is married to a comedian named Jensen Karp who tweeted that he found shrimp tails in his box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
After his tweet went viral, [writer Melissa Stetten alleged that he was an abuser(vox.com/…/what-is-a-milkshake-duck-definition-exp…) and stated that other women had reached out to share their own allegations against Karp with her.
Karp being a “milkshake duck” refers to a June 2016 tweet from Aussie cartoonist Ben Ward which read
The whole internet loves Milkshake Duck, a lovely duck that drinks milkshakes! 5 seconds later We regret to inform you the duck is racist
It gave a name to the phenomenon of seemingly harmless individuals’ sordid pasts being called out after a brief brush with fame.
Good lord well done 👏
My hovercraft is full of eels.
That’s actually a phrase translated into every language that has a phrases page on omniglot, which cracks me up consistently.
Ah! I will not buy this TOBACCONISTS! IT is scratched!

I’s all in a day’s work for… bicycle repair man.
It’s just memes broken out by who was under 30 when they became popular.
