Fake History Porn

Welcome to /c/fakehistoryporn@lemmy.world , where fake history is made. Find a historically significant photo, come up with a fake history title, post it, laugh.

The name is a reference to the fact that the pictures should be worth marveling at. This is NOT a place for hardcore pornography. Tasteful nudity is fine as long as it fits within the context of the post (please mark it as NSFW).

I'm pretty sure you know what follows...

Image transcriptA recreation of the Piper Perri Surrounded meme. A white CASIO CFX-9850GB PLUS calculator is laid on its side on a cushion while three TI-83 Plus and two TI-84 Plus calculators, all black, are standing behind the cushion. The faces of corresponding actors are shown in 4-tone pixelated pictures on each calculator's respective screens, grayscale on the TIs and sepia-toned on the CASIO thanks to its (limited) color graphics. Words of the text "Original meme by Chaotic Neutral Czech" are used in place of the SHIFT functions on a row of keys on the Casio as a mild watermark.

You misunderstand the purpose of this community so hard

I did read the sidebar but I don't think it's a major problem - as I explained above, this is fake, history and porn, and will likely be appreciated by subscribers of this community.

I do think it is fine, but the point is...

Find a historically significant photo, come up with a fake history title, post it, laugh.

I mostly agree but I would not call it the point. The point is to have fun over fake history. This is a rule or guideline which I admittedly broke de iure but I think I acted sufficiently in the spirit of our community that such posts should be allowed sparingly (as long as they don't overrun the community outside its moderators' intentions). In 2020, I posted this on r/memes, r/mathmemes r/fakehistorymemes, where it arguably fits better, but the r/fakehistoryporn post got most upvotes and there is no fake history memes community on Lemmy anyway.
