    Oh, I understand this one.

    You see, the artist is trying to express their frustration with the process. “There is no joke” because we are the joke. We are the frog, putting on our clothes to drag ourselves through the day-to-day, never taking in the absurdity of our situations, of trying to get through.

    Top notch work.

      Is a meme artist the same calibre as a sandwich artist? Asking for a friend

        My friend, they are one in the same.

        What is a meme but a sandwich of words? One feeds the body, but you, you feed the soul.

        Eh, I’d put a meme artist a peg above. Sandwiches are so ephemeral, a meme is forever. Or at least until compression artifacts ruin it’s legibility.

    Someone has to provide the content, and it’s not me, so I’ll keep passing out the upvotes until better content comes along.

    This post is the equivalent of a throw away round in Cards Against Humanity where the card you threw away somehow won.

    I get it, but maybe dont post just to be posting? The internet misses you, but it will get along OK without you for a day or two while you think of something relevant to anything.

      You think I’m posting just to post?

      Tom, you deeply misunderstand.
      I post out of necessity.
      I post to fill the gargantuan void in my being, created by self-loathing and a massive inferiority complex.
      I post out of soul crushing boredom.
      I post for the respite my memes offer to millions of introverts, who would rather light themselves on fire, than attend another office meeting
      I post to shout into the abyss, and to tell it that it cannot have my soul, my creativity, or the surrender of my will just yet.

      but mostly…

      I post, just because I really, really like memes

        Oh shit. I would give you my usual “Sorry for being a dick, I had a few too many last night” but that was actually kind of inspiring. In this case I’m glad I drew something beautiful from tour soul by being a douche.
