Re: Meme Thread for Memes and other assorted Lulz
You know it’s a hilarious joke when it’s followed by an extensive explanation as to why it’s funny. I guess the left memes are fire after all.

I don't think the problem was with the communicative qualities of the artist. The misunderstanding of the reader, in this case, was caused by his quickness to assume it was patronising the dumb blond without properly reading the content.DBTrek wrote: ↑Thu Dec 06, 2018 8:27 amDepends on whether you believe effective communication is the responsibility of the reader or the author. Europeans and Americans generally believe the burden of clearly communicating an idea falls upon the author. Middle Easterners and people from Southeast Asia place the onus on the reader.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

You know the joke hit its mark when multiple snowflake posters refuse to find it funny and make up alternative meanings for the punchline.

I'm convinced he is either "differently abled" or a Super Troll....
I'm leaning towards Super Troll.

Nothing says “joke hit the mark” like a majority of the audience not finding it funny. Good call.

Your attempts to defend this Turkey of a cartoon are far funnier than the actual “joke”.
