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 !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, 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.

why do liberals give a shit about the dumbest shit possible

Also tan is such an old people color. My dad wears a tan jacket. It's very Walter White, pre breaking bad, to wear tan anything

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 26 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

I have a tan chore jacket.

I think it's nice.

Meme about the physical appearance insult bouncing off the intended bad person and hitting the casual bystander

[–] Black_Mald_Futures@hexbear.net 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Im sorry homie but i would reconsider my color options in future clothing endeavors

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

But navy blue was all sold out and I already have too many dark jackets

Hey it's okay, maybe I'm wrong. I post crank shit all the time and maybe this is just more of my crank shit and you actually look really fly and totally youthful in that kick ass tan jacket <3

[–] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Haha It's all good but thanks, that's very kind. I just thought it was funny. But I do like my tan chore jacket though. It's good to have light options.

And actually my girlfriend would tell me I looked like a grandpa in it so I know it's a thing. Haha

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

Don't worry about what they're saying, tan chore jackets are totally in style again. When I was in high school, my tan bomber jacket got me more compliments than any other piece of clothing and that was just a few years ago

[–] quarrk@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

It probably looks awesome, don’t stop wearing it. Tan looks really good when done well. Just hard to wear solid tan, like a suit. It’s better when broken up (e.g. wear a tan top or bottom but not both) or accented with darker browns

[–] ImmortanStalin@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And the tan colors he wore were supposed to blend him into the Nevada environment. Like he's invisible, insignificant.

America's best president's tactical genius going under appreciated, smh my head. I'd vote for him for a fourth term if I could rat-salute-2

[–] GeorgeZBush@hexbear.net 7 points 2 weeks ago

Poor aesthetic choices, like a tan suit, are the type of thing they can chuckle over while at brunch.

[–] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 2 weeks ago

I like tan too :cri:

American politics truly is just WWE. The media is the equivalent of Vince McMahon - the executive who also inserts themselves in the story.

[–] huf@hexbear.net 19 points 2 weeks ago

it's prestige tv and they're competing with the likes of gambo

[–] muad_dibber@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 2 weeks ago

The WWE is pretty honest about it being theatre / only for entertainment, bourgeois politics pretends its not.

[–] muad_dibber@lemmygrad.ml 27 points 2 weeks ago

The meta-analysis around their theatre performances and characters are more important than the content of what they're actually saying.

Of course that's always been a thing with electoralism, but I feel like the meta-analysis really eclipsed content in the 90s.

Liberals always look goofy when they try to own the chuds.

[–] LeylaLove@hexbear.net 10 points 2 weeks ago

Obama is the only one that looks good in the suit because he wasn't going for a stupid dunk. The other two pictures are ugly as hell

[–] daniyeg@hexbear.net 18 points 2 weeks ago

kamala not wearing a tie exactly like THE FORMER PRESIDENT OF IRAN MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD.

[–] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 15 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Tan suits are the liberal version of Confederate flags.

Edit: come to think of it, that would be the Coexist bumper sticker

[–] tombruzzo@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago

Autism be damned, that tan can suit

If you asked a LLM to come up with an inside running joke to simulate a friendship

Friday the 13: The Series, episode 102: The Tan Suit

[–] gramxi@hexbear.net 4 points 2 weeks ago

copmala is the only one that pulls it off tbh

[–] Deinonychus@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why is it such a big deal that they're wearing tan suits?

[–] posthexbearposting@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Why was Hitler such a big deal? Do you think tan suits are okay? What is wrong with you

[–] Deinonychus@hexbear.net 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Sorry, i dont know the history of tan suits. Please could you explain it to me

[–] posthexbearposting@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It's not my job to educate you sweetie, please do your own research on the problematic nature of tan suit

[–] Deinonychus@hexbear.net 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I can't tell if you're trolling or not. When i search it up, the only thing i find is stuff about Republican polititians calling it 'unprofessional'

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

They were trolling, but yeah, the "tan suit" thing is because republicans can't attack dems for their policy (because it is identical to their own) so they need to target them for pointless spectacle bullshit. Obama wore a tan suit and they freaked out, so Biden and Kamala have worn tan suits to imply they are like Obama, who was popular, hoping they'll be popular by association.

[–] Deinonychus@hexbear.net 1 points 2 weeks ago

Thx <3 i find it difficult to realise when people are trolling sometimes

[–] an_engel_on_earth@hexbear.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

from all the things passed down

from all the apples coming before

damn you now the song is stuck in my head again
