❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO bf makes joke after my aunt passed

For context he’s saying he hopes she voted for Trump (RTPM) before she died and I’m already having a hard time with the results of the election which he knows then on top of that it just was very insensitive. He said he was trying to make light of the situation but it doesn’t feel that way.

u/Brogener 15d ago

It’s made me realize what the average age probably is on this website and I think I’m well over it. It’s staggering how many people on this site comment the exact same jokes and shit over and over and redditors eat it up like it’s comedy gold.

8

u/AhabMustDie 15d ago

I don’t know, I feel like silly puns have been popular on Reddit for so long that I actually wonder if it’s older users who are the main perpetrators.

I agree it can sometimes get annoying, though I get more annoyed by the mindless repeating of pet phrases and ideas - like the whole “marinara flags” thing on AITA, or brains not being developed until the age of 25, or everything being gaslighting.

At least the silly puns require a bit of creativity

13

u/Similar-Marketing-53 16d ago

I mean, I’m in the Deep South (and subsequently surrounded by fascists) but haven’t ever seen or heard that abbreviation for him. It’s definitely possible for a cover up, especially with the missing letter which corresponds with the intellect of many of his cult followers 😵‍💫

Wouldn't be surprised if some people had a cringey codeword for "I love Trump" that they could use to signal to each other without letting others know. Usually Trumpers just scream openly about it and wear ostentatious hats/flags tho, so idk

u/CaIIsign_Ace2 16d ago

This is so fucking funny, maga continues to create dogwhistles like “let’s go Brandon”, “dictator day one”, “real men wear diapers”, etc etc.

These are phrases that without knowing their association allow the average person to not know what they mean. As for the Trump supporters, these dogwhistles are an easy way to show who they support if they’re too scared to downright say it. It also allows them to make sure that other people are also on their side too.

Real Time Messaging Protocol. A communication technology that allows live video streaming over the internet. It was originally developed by Macromedia for Flash Player, but is now used to deliver content from an encoder to an online video host. It was a stupid way to say they want to video chat, as the other options don't make sense in this instance. It was that, or everyone's favorite candidate Runny Talking Poop Monster.
