If you’re not a stoner and a fan of Adult Swim or an internet person: You wouldn’t get this meme right fucking now.
You have to have at least seen the clip from Tim & Eric: Awesome Show, Great Job to understand it and that is a pretty big ask for a super niche show that doesn’t have mainstream appeal. lol
If you wish to know more, search “Tim & Eric free real estate”
I’m neither and I got it. It’s a well known meme.
It’s well known… On the Internet, you obvious Internet person.
Totally agree. I thought I was an internet person, but according to this I was wrong. I had no idea what any of this was, I watched the video and I’m still not sure.
I watched the video and I’m still not sure.
It really helps to watch Tim & Eric while as high as you can possibly get.
My day is made every time I see Tim Heidecker. That is all.
It’s free real estate.
THE HOUSE IS FREE!!
you gotta buy the furniture but the house is free
It’s a free house there’s a pool in the back
It’s loss.

Jim does it get better than this??

A dog walks into a bar and says, ‘I cannot see a thing. I’ll open this one.’
I just love that “x walks into a bar” is such a universal joke format. Even if we don’t know why it was funny.
I Googled this, read about it, and then found a Reddit thread where two historian/Sumerologists get into a discussion about the potential meaning.
Maybe it is we who are the joke.
I think I first heard this from Ea-nāṣir
So his jokes were as shitty as his copper!
I have no idea who the person is or what the context of the photo was, but just the cat + box part tells me all I need to know.
Ha, I only knew the whispered line, never saw the conplete sketch. Brilliant.
“I am not a bot, and this action was performed manually”
“I am not a bot, and this action was performed manually”
Why is that in quotes? Are you actually a bot?
Thanks I try to remember but this one slipped by
We’re all better together
Good human.
Holy shit yeah having context makes it way different
If cats are still around then, then yes they will.
You see, cats, even over a 1000 years will not evolve, because they are absolutely perfect specimens of life and there is no reason for them to change in any way. The other imperfect beasts around them are always having to evolve.
According to cats.
Its not about the cat its about the reaction image being interpreted without its usual text because many people have seen it so many times that its not needed.
Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra
His memes spreading wide
Shaka, when the walls fell
Shakira, who’s hips spoke truth.
Shakira, her hips truthful*
Kelis, her frozen dairy drink desirable.
A bit off topic, but I was playing RimWorld and ended up with a colonist nicknamed Real Estate. He got captured during a raid at one point. I kept waiting for the quest to rescue him so I could post this meme, but it never happened…
I absolutely love the idea that hieroglyphics were all just period specific dank memes that we just don’t get because we’re not in.
If they can read the English of this era and cats are still around, yes they will. The expression is pretty universal as depicting satisfied smugness.
Aha but that would be only partially correct! Theres more to free real estate than smugness.
I remember the first time I was shown a meme by a friend. She showed me a rage comic on 9 gag and I absolutely didn’t get it obviously and she was desperate to explain and just said “yeah it’s not that funny but when you see them often you kinda start getting what they mean” and I thought that’s a stupid ass concept and wtf.
Well, here we are now. It’s about 15 years later. By now I have a toddler who speaks “English” but it’s basically just meme quotes in fitting situations because her parents mostly communicate in memes.
Beautiful. You’re raising a top tier meme lord. Meme nostalgia is gonna be huge
Idk why I originally thought this was a schrodinger’s cat joke. Thought it was he opened the box and the cat is happy because it’s observed to be alive or something like that lol
I thought this was the adoring fan from Oblivion until I saw someone linked the source.
I guess that would make knowyourmeme the modern Rosetta Stone
perhaps, but it will be indecipherable due to the 42gb of advertisements and pop-ups it loads.
ublock origin is going to be seen as a hero-like figure
Or the death of the Internet when 100% of people use ad blockers.
Or maybe websites can go back to simple ads that just have a picture with a link. Modern advertising is about harvesting your data, which is why I use an ad blocker. They also use a ton of resources that slow down websites.
We can’t close pandora’s box. Google ads are extremely profitable, nothing else comes close. I work for a company that uses ads as the main revenue source. We tried to avoid Google but it just makes no business sense. We’re talking 10 times the revenue compared to other major players. Google not only pays better, but the ads are just better.
I’m very pessimistic. I’m pretty sure we’re heading in the direction where most websites will be DRM’d and impossible to block ads.
It’s not already?
All hail
Knowyourmeme has ads?
If I become rich I will download the entirety of knowyourmeme and engrave it on a giant block of granite or carve it into the side of a mountain. Our descendants will thank me.
The fact that the reply used “hieroglyphics” and cats have been pulling this shit longer ago than those were used as written language… And said poster’s argument was that “someday” that wouldn’t be the case?
Have they met a fucking cat?!
pretty sure it’s about the subtitles of the meme missing (it’s free real estate)
