Sommeliers spit out the wine that they tell you to drink. Very suspicious. /s

This is such a dumb trope that keeps getting repeated in memes. Dosage size matters.

I think 99% of the people sharing the meme understand it is a joke.

Its a joke here because we don't have an anti-vax community.

If this was Facebook, this meme would be sex and candy for that crowd.

I wanted to ask who was lounging in my chair, but you went straight to dig it T_T

I think 99% of statistics are made up on the spot.

It's not a very good joke.

Jokes can still be dumb and unfunny.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

Most dumb things are unfunny.

Sometimes seemingly dumb things are funny because they make you think a little bit and realize that it seems weird to someone who doesn't understand the context. This one is actually clever because without knowing the context of cumulative effects would be confused by the tech hiding behind a safety shield while telling you it is safe. The humor requires seeing it from someone else's perspective and having the knowledge of why it seems contradictory.
