Next year it will be ten years since Harambe died.

Good on this kid for wearing a suit to his interview for a teenaged part time job.

Bad on him for what he did to my boy.

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 17 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

I think the kid is a victim of poor parenting and should be given a bit of slack, but the parents should have been hanged, in my opinion.

This is a meme comment section, you get outta here with your logic and temperence.

[–] khannie@lemmy.world 26 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It has been a long, long ten years.

I was told time would speed up as I aged.

[–] QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz 6 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

2019 alone might as well be 10 years ago.

[–] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 4 points 5 hours ago

It was also yesterday.

Should I put mine back in and take it out again? Mine was already out.

It all started with that damn gorilla

[–] Bob_Robertson_IX@discuss.tchncs.de 14 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Please, no blasphemy.

Also, it didn't start with Harambe... it started with the end of the world in 2012. Harambe was just another casualty of the Mayan Calendar.

[–] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 10 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

And the large hadron collider, which was first turned on in 2012, ending existence immediately - as predicted by the Mayans.

Right? We're all dead, what you are experiencing is your last few moments of life stretched out into decades as the chemical and electrical events that in your brain, that keep track of time and interpreted your senses, slow and dull and flicker out. The last gasps and glimmers of a fleeting consciousness hurled into the dark.

For others like me who have no clue what this meme is about:

In 2016, a 3-year old got into the Gorilla enclosure, where he was grabbed and dragged around by a gorilla, Harambe, which was then shot.

[–] em2@lemmy.ml 39 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

and the timeline hasn't felt right since

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 12 points 6 hours ago

Harambe was the last vestigial of freedom, locked in a cage and then shot to death for acting of his own volition. /s

[–] scala@lemmy.ml 10 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

That's when the shift happened. Downfall of the US. Video games slapping you with my over quality. Nature preserves declining at an embarrassing rate

[–] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 hours ago

We were all so young

[–] rimjob_rainer@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 4 hours ago

So if time travel gets invented, someone should travel back to 2016 to prevent the child from getting into the enclosure and everything will be good.

[–] hardcoreufo@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

And then Elon musk made a shitty rap about it 3 years later for some reason.

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 32 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

The existence of Harambe implies the existence of Halalbe

I randomly drunkenly said that to my partner a while ago, apropos of nothing. No idea why it popped into my head.

[–] androidul@lemmy.ml 5 points 4 hours ago

absolutely halal
