I'm in the dark on this one. Can someone please explain?

[–] chuckleslord@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago

So is the person who doesn't know

I was confused as well at first, but then I realised I need to think real literally: The one on the left is lit up and colourful, because he knows how to turn on a light; the one on the right looks as if he is in the dark (due to not knowing how to turn on the light)

Though you saying you're "in the dark on this one" does make me wonder whether you did get the joke, and in fact I am missing a joke that you are making.

One of my favourite silly jokes when I was a teenage emo was "how many emos does it take to change a lightbulb? None, they all sit in the dark crying". I've outgrown much of the crying, but admittedly, I do still spend a lot of time sitting in the dark. I blame the autism.

And here I thought it was a joke about self immolation

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 points 1 week ago

Bone hurting is always welcome.

This feels more of like a puzzle than a meme

Is it.. possible to make light run hotter than at the speed of light?

Rub some cheetah blood on the photons.
