Im guessing some conservative freak out happened over fruit cups?

[–] [email protected] 50 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There was a video on twitter of migrants selling fruit and a conservative woman freaking out. I assume that’s what it’s referring to.

It's so tiring to keep track of what they're outraged about now.

“Fruit cup" = a queer person

I thought that was a pretty common slur?

I thought a fruitcake was a crazy person.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Shit. Fair.

But fruit cups are tasty and nutritious

Controversial opinion but I don't think humans taste good.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

Maybe you don't. I'm an absolute snack.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Tried to make a sex joke about tasting people but I guess I just literally don't know what about that is sexy, so someone else do it

Actually human meat is lacking in key nutrients because it has already used up the nutrients that the human body burns through quickly.

Wut? Too early for me to try and make up context...

[–] Mr_Blott 8 points 2 months ago

Fruit bats are scary, apparently

[–] Crampon 46 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Fruit in a plastic shaker is unnecessary waste. Makes sense its a trigger.

What is the meaning of this meme? Im lost.

I think this is supposed to be a joke about MAGATs never eating fruit?

That just begs the question: Why is he skinny?

Also, it appears they accidentally left out the part where it's funny.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Why is he skinny?

Meth. The answer is meth.

I worked with a woman who'd just gotten off meth. She swore that she got sick more often while clean because... meth was made out of cold medicine.

[–] TexasDrunk 9 points 2 months ago

I think you worked with my ex.

I love how no one understands this, but it's still massively upvoted. We like the vibes.

Fruit bats?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Looks like a fruit bat. But I still don’t get the joke.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago

Me neither. I can only assume there was some news item about right wingers wetting their pants over fruit cups that I missed.

And honestly, I wouldn't be surprised. They wet their pants about everything.

Seems to be referencing this tweet which I found on another post. Doesn't seem to be just about fruit, but easiest thing to mock I guess? I agree with mocking them, but seems a little easy to strawman: https://twitter.com/LibsSuckaBigOne/status/1774570717545107602

Someone’s mad about people selling fruit cups? She can’t just not buy the fruit cups? Or, it’s a racism thing, isn’t it?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

She makes a reply calling someone a fucking commie and complains about us voting in politicians that allow "illegals" in. Absolutely racism.

Is the flying fruit cup a metaphor for the gays? 🤔

[–] EdibleFriend 8 points 2 months ago

Whenever I'm confused I assume gay has transpired.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

They're also scared of falling acorns. Squirrels are braver than them.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)
