Reflections From a Murky Pond

Yes, “Barbenheimer” is a term now. It’s a freaking meme, and a quite well done one at that. Indeed, it’s well enough done IMRHO that I’m posting about it – mostly because I find the image above disturbingly compelling.

And, I’m actually pretty sure that there’s some deeper sociological meaning to the Barbenheimer meme’s prevalence and popularity. After all, Barbie in many fundamental ways is the child of Oppenheimer’s work.

Beauty and the Beast seems like it should have ended like this, yet it didn’t because so many people forget that Belle was a White woman… and we all know, thanks to internet memes, that White women will ride into battle naked on the backs of wild beasts. 😆

And yeah, most people also either don’t know or choose to bleach their brains of the fact that Bad Dragon Enterprises, Inc., a company that makes a variety of non-human shaped sex toys, has revenues exceeding $100 million USD. So, this ending seems at least a probable as the one that was shown.

OK. Yeah; I laughed stupidly hard when I saw this. As someone who is not, and has not ever been successfully, monogamous, I find this really funny. The way it suborns the meme of monogamous people cheating on each other hits my humor just right.

That glass of water – is it half-full? Is it half-empty? Or, is it like the #Woke would rant, racist? And no, as sarcastic and comedic as most would find this, the #woke sorts and those that they pander to- and enable really say crap like that. But then, they say that anything “White” and anything that doesn’t specifically privilege non-Whites at the expense of Whites is racist. 🙄

Hehehe – Mematic changes – they happen, whether you want them to or not. 😉 And no; NFTs aren’t going to help you. The Internet can and will twist, suborn, and corrupt your memes. Indeed, that’s Rule 13, and arguing against it runs afoul of Rule 15.
