Next year it will be ten years since Harambe died.

Good on this kid for wearing a suit to his interview for a teenaged part time job.

Bad on him for what he did to my boy.

I think the kid is a victim of poor parenting and should be given a bit of slack, but the parents should have been hanged, in my opinion.

This is a meme comment section, you get outta here with your logic and temperence.

It has been a long, long ten years.

I was told time would speed up as I aged.

2019 alone might as well be 10 years ago.

It was also yesterday.

I will put my dick away for the day, out of respect

Should I put mine back in and take it out again? Mine was already out.

Oh I'm sorry, are you not prepared to suffer any consequences at all for an important cause? Fucking tourist.

The existence of Harambe implies the existence of Halalbe

I randomly drunkenly said that to my partner a while ago, apropos of nothing. No idea why it popped into my head.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Shaking my partner awake violently at 12:00am just to look into her eyes and say "First" before immediately falling asleep

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago

absolutely halal

It all started with that damn gorilla

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Please, no blasphemy.

Also, it didn't start with Harambe... it started with the end of the world in 2012. Harambe was just another casualty of the Mayan Calendar.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And the large hadron collider, which was first turned on in 2012, ending existence immediately - as predicted by the Mayans.

Right? We're all dead, what you are experiencing is your last few moments of life stretched out into decades as the chemical and electrical events that in your brain, that keep track of time and interpreted your senses, slow and dull and flicker out. The last gasps and glimmers of a fleeting consciousness hurled into the dark.

For others like me who have no clue what this meme is about:

In 2016, a 3-year old got into the Gorilla enclosure, where he was grabbed and dragged around by a gorilla, Harambe, which was then shot.

[–] [email protected] 67 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

and the timeline hasn't felt right since

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago

Harambe was the last vestigial of freedom, locked in a cage and then shot to death for acting of his own volition. /s

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's when the shift happened. Downfall of the US. Video games slapping you with my over quality. Nature preserves declining at an embarrassing rate

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

We were all so young

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 weeks ago

So if time travel gets invented, someone should travel back to 2016 to prevent the child from getting into the enclosure and everything will be good.

And then Elon musk made a shitty rap about it 3 years later for some reason.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

How the fuck do you not know about that? It's been talked about and memed almost constantly since then. One of the biggest memes ever.
