Look man. I'm pretty sure everybody already knew this going in. It's like going to a pro wrestling show, and proudly declairing it to be a fake sham of a specticle.

We all just want to see 20 midgets attack a bullfighter waving a red flag, while we eat nachos and drink beers.

Let us have our fun, alright?

No, fuck right off. That BS attitude is a big part of what killed reddit. Fake shit that tries to pass itself off as real is lame as fuck and insulting. With pro wrestling or plays or movies, you go in expecting it to be fake. It doesn't really matter if the wrestlers don't have any real beef or real drama, you still get to see 20 midgets attacking a bullfighter. The lie is just the set up, not the main event. But shit like this post? The lie is the entire thing. Take it away and you just have someone's shitty, unclever, poetry that isn't interesting or funny enough to stand on its own.

What is the entertainment from the meme? Is it that "Auto-translate did this"? Or is it "This is All Star as if it was a passage from the Bible"?

If it's the latter (which I personally found amusing) then why are you getting your panties is a twist that it wasn't a computer that did this?
