Like yeah ok, for the first 5 five times one sees it, it’s like haha, lol, there it is! But, these do get old really fast for me.

For me it’s now more like -wow. So that is literally the entire joke? Like oof, I guess they really wannted to be funny.-

EDIT: Updated the funi image to actually be what I wanted it to be… Took me a while, sorry.

    Loss is only funny with the context of what an enormous shithead Buckley was online for years prior; it was the juxtaposition of sanctimony in the comic against his awful miscreant behavior that makes it laughable to begin with.

    If you weren’t around and involved in the scene to see the kind of person Buckley was when loss was released, then you’re just laughing at an echo of a joke.

      I was there. /v/ was ripping on Fuckley in the weeks leading to Loss. Every comic was dissected to find the joke, and then remixed to be funny (because CAD wasn’t).

      And then Loss dropped, and /v/ went ape shit.

      I miss old /v/ :(
