dank memes

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 /c/slop

  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.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

one time a family member was visiting and he kept reacting with surprise at red jalapenos from my plants, like he didn't even countenance their existence and could only conceive of green jalapenos

he was a retired career landscaper, thrown off by red peppers

edit: y'know I've never really thought about it but there was definitely a class aspect to this reaction, he was a quite well paid landscaper-to-the-wealthy in California for his career and I think he saw growing food as lesser or blue collar instead of growing bushes and flowers for rich dickheads

you should blow his mind with some of those peppers that straight up look like multicolored christmas lights
