Meme needing explanation Common reposts

106 Upvotes

Hi. I'm the guy surfing New day in day out looking for reposts. I'm going to post some of the most common ones in this thread as I come across them.

Why does Peter explain the joke?

Cow Tools

Per u/cthulhuscradle: The creator of the comic confirmed that the joke is "if cows made tools they probably wouldn't be very good"

Genie increasing earth's gravity

Per u/Nearby-Actuary-3835: There was an earlier post by someone else on the same sub that went "when I'm about to enjoy a watermelon but gravity suddenly increases". With a gif of someone cracking a watermelon with their head. This is a funny follow up/reference to that post that explains how that happened

Guy named Ice

Per u/HorseStupid: It's a "Kid Named Finger" type meme, where the punchline is irreverent to the set up.

A joke that may be the original for this punchline may be like, "Crush: All I want is Ice Cream / Guy named Ice:"

Half circle finding the perfect fit

From a deleted account: His perfect match is with someone else. No one else matches. He finds a pet that matches perfectly with some part of him. 

Heathcliffe Comics

The joke is that Heathcliffe comics have descended into madness and surrealism in recent years and nobody's really sure what's going on. Are we in on the joke? Is the artist in on the joke? Is it laziness? Is it a commentary on the obsolescence of ancient newspaper comics in a modern Internet and social media era? Nobody knows.

Hey rabbit population, how's it going?

Per u/umikali: Hey, Chris here. The thing in the right top is a mathematical curve, which has many connections to other fields, from physics to biology, and that curve represents the reproduction factor to the stable population of rabbits, veritasium made a great video about this :https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ovJcsL7vyrk

Her: I really like men that think ahead.

Him: I already drank a liter of pineapple juice.

Drinking pineapple juice changes the test of ejaculate. Supposedly to make it taste better. The dude drank it because he's hoping to get a blowjob after their date.

Last night I JAMES BOND BURGERED your sister

These are usually nonsensical posts that have no meaning. An anti-joke.

My 7th graders just asked me to add 43 + 24. I fell for it.

Probably a variation on the 67 meme.

The numbers 10-99 are called the double digits. Memorize them.

Per u/13thFleet: Think of it like a parody of life pro tips. It's a silly scenario where a guy doesn't know something obvious and tries to help people learn it.

Nothing beats a Jet2 Holiday

That's an advertising slogan for a low cost carrier in the UK. The joke is that the person or thing tagged Nothing in the meme is physically abusing whoever is tagged as A Jet2 Holiday.

Oreos and attractive starlets

Per u/Zuzara_Queen_of_DnD: The images are metaphors for what the women’s inner and out vulva look like

Philosophy people disproportionately look like evil villains

Per u/ThenaCykez: Peter here! The character at bottom is Chidi from The Good Place, a philosophy professor who has died and entered the afterlife. He has severe anxiety and indecisiveness. As in the picture, he gets a stomachache whenever he has to make an important decision because it takes him hours as he considers his philosophical principles. Spoiler:Although he thinks he is in heaven ("the good place"), he later learns he is actually in hell ("the bad place") because his overthinking had made everyone in his life miserable, and he never did anything good with his life.So maybe OP is saying "You're not going to like the answer: most philosophers ARE villains."

when her TV is on HDMI2 but nothing's plugged in

She's cheating or getting with another guy. He plugged something into HDMI2 then didn't change it when he unplugged and left.

Why are you late to work? 630 calculator

The person accidentally put 630 in their calculator app instead of their alarm clock app

Time machine wolves in captivity

u/0xKaishakunin with the explanation: That's Lucyan David Mech, who die research on wolves and came up with the term “alpha male” and “alpha female” and the theory that wolves live in a strict hierarchy, where the alphas constatnly attack lower ranking wolves.

This has inspired the alpha male/incel bullshit that spreads nowadays.

Mech convinced his publisher to stop publishing the relevant book.

Woman Come, Woman Go. Man Come, Random Fruit Picture

The joke is a subversion of the expectation that the fruit will be a mango. Man come, mango. A random fruit is inserted to be random and funny.

You're Whale Come

u/whitecholklet with the explanation on this one: Hi , Peters Surfing bird album here, After someone says “thanks” it’s common to say “Your welcome” The joke is “your whale cum” ie the baby way was made with whale cum
