We're the anti-meme community where the joke is that there isn't one, and by explaining that, we've ruined the whole thing, but we all find the collective misery hilarious.

The music of comedy is more important than the joke itself.

Follow the instance rules please, this is a lovely instance.

Do people here mind if there are antimemes whose original context was political.

Upvote this if you dont care.

Downvotes if you dont want them.

Just wanna check the community opinion.

There’s a whole cottage industry around repurposing hateful Stonetoss comics, so I don’t think so.

Actually it was “Grip coffee really hard while crying and gritting your teeth profusely” day*

Oh, I get it. Because we all hate Christmas?

I have so many questions about the world these people live in.

How this exchange goes down in reality;

Me: Merry Christmas!

Queer person: Merry Christmas!

Or reply with happy holiday. The comic is strawmaning.

If people wish me Merry Christmas, what's the harm in just saying it back? The holiday is important to them so why not reflect that? I don't (really) celebrate any other holiday anyway.

I'd only use "happy holidays" if I wasn't sure what the audience observed.

The one person I know who actually hates Christmas is possibly the straightest, cis-est human I’ve met.

I guess the comic maker thinks “Merry Christmas” bothers us the way “Happy Holidays” bothers them. Even though the phrase features in old festive songs 🤔

to be fair, I do hate Christmas

[–] KernelTale@programming.dev 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Same, I dislike that not only I have to buy gifts but I also have to receive them?!

[–] individual@toast.ooo 1 points 1 month ago

I mean I also dislike whatever the other holidays in this comic are

I like Halloween tho, and 4th of July can be pretty hilarious

We need an actual war on Christmas, they have been annexing their neighbors for decades and most be stopped

I thought it was going to be a lot worse than that.

It should be backwards with the pink character saying happy holidays
