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 /c/slop

  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

How do you figure? I do the same shit and take no responsibility for the stupid way the people around me will react.

I don’t force them to illegally pass me in the shoulder… I don’t slam the gas pedal on their car and jerk their wheel into oncoming traffic in a fit of rage… They do that stuff in reaction to my very benign driving. The need for other people to drive like shitheads is not my fault.

Sure, but you still contribute to the creation of the dangerous situation. When you bait someone you know has a short tempter into lashing out, it is ultimately their action and their responsibility, but it's still not a good thing to do.

I love making pickup trucks and Nissan altimas mad.

100% they're creating the conditions in which people are likely to die. Def not good.

"I didn't do anything wrong when standing in between a bear and her cubs. It is her fault and her fault alone that I got mauled."

Seriously, nobody cares if dead people are in the right because that won't bring you back.

Such a clever reply someone had already done it. The edit is totally not the same thing 👍 (edit: they ninja edited out a meme image that was basically the same as the original attempt which was a copy of another poster)

lol your edit has big “what about the homework?” energy. Fucking dork.

Yeah, I realized I was beat to the punch, so edited my comment to actually be engaging.
