I don’t know if it’s because I grew up in a different time period or whether my sense of humor is just misaligned, or if it’s just that I don’t have the background necessary, but I don’t understand shit.

I don’t get any of the jokes, some are just completely undecipherable, and some comics just leave me feeling stupid as hell.

How do you guys understand any of this? What do the user demographics of this community look like?

Is this a government psyop? Are these comics evidence trails to hire super smart cryptography detectives like Cicada 3301? Are they memetic triggers for activating sleeper agents? To be honest I think I’d feel better if it was.

    Thanks. I understand this a little better now. As for other comics, I’ve read Calvin and Hobbes and have no problem reading them cover to cover. And the comparison to memes make this whole thing make a lot more sense - we weren’t there for it, so it makes little sense, but they might still have been funny in its time like Markiplier farquad saying “E” was (for a few weeks some time ago) for us.
