It's like the equivalent of finding out your kids also like Thomas the Train or Pokémon as you did once. Mutual meme humor is way more precious though.

Thomas the train just sounds so wrong.

Unrelated, but I recently worked with a guy who was basically identical to the child thing in this meme.

My wife asked me why I carry a gun around the house.

"To fight the motherfucking Decepticons," I said.

She laughed. I laughed.

The toaster laughed.

I shot the toaster.

I'm not one for mocking someones appearance, but he was a total cock so I'm gonna go ahead and mock his appearance.

I'm 38 and remember this R****t moment, she wasn't even born when it landed. She's a very cool kid.

Can I get some context? I’ve not seen it, but it looks like fun crazy

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I honestly have no more context other than someone made it and I remember seeing it across all the aggregator sites (I was mostly on fark back then) for a short while. Someone posted the KYM link upthread.

It's just so stupidly random, I love that she's developed the same weird sense of humour as her two (much) older bros.
