Same exact thing as “How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real?”

I think they were joking

No, the issue is that he didn’t understand how the technology he was using worked. I mean, one of Apple’s most prevalently advertised features is their product integration, it’s like, their whole deal.

Ooh, I’ve had that, it adds a surprisingly mustardy taste to the milk…

Yes it is, because “boomers,” by definition of the word’s intended memetic use, are old yes, but more specifically they are old rich people in power. Using “boomer” as an insult doesn’t hurt them. Meanwhile the actual boomers are literally trying to stigmatize and criminalize queerness. It’s the same logic that makes it ok (encouraged even) to be racist against white people, it just doesn’t affect us.

It doesn’t count as self-awareness if he disassociates from the statement entirely, it’s actually the opposite.

Yah, it was a joke based on the ambiguous title. Lemmy is just reeeeeally bad at recognizing sarcasm, even when it’s literally labeled as such, lol.

Wow, y’all really don’t know what /s means, huh?

The sign of a good game is when it takes 10 hours to get into… (/s)

I see a mistake…

But any pronoun could be your preferred pronoun or the preferred pronoun of someone receiving the e-mail, so it really is safest to avoid them entirely.

No that’s Mark Harmon. He does have a similarly bad haircut, but this guy looks a bit more like Dustin Hoffman. Another alleged weirdo, I believe, but luckily for Mike, he’s neither of them. Just a dude with some kittens, I think.

They didn’t get years in prison, look up “suspended sentence”.

Yeah, they defined a lot of things differently then. They defined legal voters as whites only, should we rely on that definition too?

I don’t know much about computers except for the one at my house my mom put some games on there I play em sometimes—

Idk about that, I miss my niche podcast subreddits, it’s just one big quote-fest.

Yeah, we need the classic Drake meme with "She’s a 10” on top and "She is 10” on bottom.

Sorry I didn’t read and respond to that wall of text, lol. All I’ll say is, If you need 6 paragraphs to explain why it’s a good joke, it’s not a good joke.

But it doesn’t make it better for anyone, and it does make it worse for the rest of us, so…

Lol, I never suggested anything about the author’s writing process and I certainly never even implied that I thought you were a dumbass, which I don’t. But now I’m not convinced you’re not the actual cartoonist, since you seem to have intimate knowledge of their creation process and their recreational habits. It’s not a “character study”—you would need characters for that—it’s a setup with no punchline, it’s half a joke. Actually, it’s worse, it’s a joke with a decent punchline, followed by a whole extra panel that just restates what the reader already learned in the previous panel with the actual punchline, making me feel like the author thinks I’m a dumbass.
