dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in [email protected], it's a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

There's something to be said for being so feared by one's enemy that they'd rather take themselves out than face you. I think that's a pretty good consolation prize.

Reminds me something I read long ago where (iirc) a western journalist asked a red army soldier what he would do if he got ahold of Hitler. The soldier replied that he'd heat up half an iron bar until red hot and then jam the cold side up Hitler's ass.

The journalist asked why the cold side.

The soldier replied plainly: so he couldn't pull it out.

Could be apocryphal but I always thought it was chefs-kiss
