    Is a ski mask just a beanie that covers your entire head? If so, I guess this still makes sense: Bank robber lol

      You fell into the asymptote; even the mighty beanie can’t divide by zero. Try wearing a single thread from a beanie instead.

      Forklift operators yes, construction workers also yes depending on the region. In many areas of the US the majority of construction workers are undocumented workers and thus kept at or below minimum wage. Forklift operators really don’t make a lot of money. Like more than general warehouse labor but even in decent states that tends to be pretty low on the spectrum.

        For real though get a Carhartt. They make high quality shit for workers. I got a new one for Christmas and I can’t imagine a head too big to fit, I gotta roll it up.

      Haha I see what you’re referring to but what would be different in the meme in the case that it wasn’t a dog whistle? I feel like the extrapolation is purely in your head

        Literally look at the highest voted comment in this thread. Comparing a yamurlke to the smallest beanie playing into the idea that Jewish people control the world.

          That post extrapolated a possible new tangentsl meaning by taking the concept based on actual common trends of wearing beanies to an extreme by applying it to different a head covering and was obviously a joke. That was fun!

          You inserted meaning that wasn’t there by speculating that the ‘real’ joke was something not even pictured or relevant to twist the joke into something negative. While there is a ton of shitty memes out there this is not one of them.

              People like well crafted jokes.

              The joke was taking a premise about one thing and exaggerating it to mean something it didn’t, which made it clear that it was mocking the jews rule the world thing.

      Yea, I don’t know anyone, anywhere I’ve ever worked that wore a beanie.

      Except when I did construction, or mechanic, or maintenance… You know, where we were outside in the cold.
