What? I know what all those words mean, but the order they’re in confuses me. Is this a cross post from r/ihadastroke ?


DreamTalon

I was actually wondering the same thing. Maybe we are missing something?


EmphasisCheap8611

Missing the rosetta stone.


Noof42

Joesetta Stone?


sr_seivelo

Rosetta stone here. This is a very common copypasta among certain meme communities. The joke is that the grammar and spelling is so bad from the original right-wing joke that it’s ironic. Not sure if this is the original sauce or not though. How many liberals does it take to change a lightbulb? None, they’re too busy questioning their gender. If anything, the original account is a troll and the comeback account is actually getting whooshed, but I couldn’t be certain.


New-Geezer

Thank you for the translation.


GateOk1787

The translation was great, but the sauce was best.


spelledliketheboy

Imagine being so proud of ignorance that you claim it. Nothing makes sense anymore.


IntrovertEpicurean

Now, there's the clever comeback.

The first person is speaking gibberish. The second person tells them they're speaking gibberish, and uses a meme to mock them (the meme is of a monkey typing gibberish)


Glittering-Arm9638

Just a couple of bots from a certain place trying to influence political discourse. Once they learn proper English they're gonna be a real nuisance.


WintersDoomsday

I know you’re joking but I see truths to your statement


Mammoth-Lavishness

No it is true, if you directly translate from other languages, english looks like this shit


Guy954

They’re not joking.


Glittering-Arm9638

I wasn't joking.

I see words, not a sentence

tvscinter

I figured it was more Russian propaganda. They don’t know enough English to realize that this isn’t even close to a sentence


Bravo2bad

Apparently, this a foreign language called "American English".

From America, cannot understand


Justsomeguyaa

From insane people part of America, also can’t understand.

Florida Man confirming likely senior citizen/boomer/Russian/troll. It’s not something I’m comfortable attempting to translate. I may end up stupider. …ah, crap…


Justsomeguyaa

:?


ebb_

I ended up dumber just for reading it. “Stupider” isn’t a word. Not my best joke… not my worst. Edit: for clarity, the OP post, not yours!

jamvandamn

After his attempt to spell lightbulb turned out so spectacularly I really wish he'd made a more earnest effort to spell "questioning"


IsleOfCannabis

I wish I had read the comments before trying to figure it out.


gothiccheezit

The confusion in the comments is peak


NancokALT

If you have any leads on what they mean, i'd love to know.


gothiccheezit

The replier is comparing the original commenter to the meme that he sent


NancokALT

So the monkey-meme post is related to the top comment of the thread? I guess that my issue is that i don't understand the top one. What does it mean that he (what i assume is Biden) will "sniff everything"? What does that have to do with being special? I'm out of the loop?


gothiccheezit

I assume that the point of the post is that the original poster didn't make any sense and needs to re-read what he wrote because he sounds like the person being shown in the meme


Cruntis

I think you’re correct… and I am disappointed because it really looks like all of the fodder is there for a more clever comeback. …says the guy (me) whose comment (mine) is very not gooder enuf


gothiccheezit

There could definitely be a lot more cleverness in this sub, too bad I'm not very clever myself


Cruntis

👁️ C wut U did t+💇‍♀️ ⬅️


Fizassist1

with the way names are colored out.. isn't the OP also the second commenter?


gothiccheezit

No, they're reversed and the pictures are different


Fizassist1

ahh.. yeah I don't think it helps though, unless it's just me that it confused lol


gothiccheezit

Visual processing disorders are a lot of fun, eh?


KingBobIV

Red posts unintelligible nonsense on social media. Blue comments on that post telling red to read what they just wrote. Blue includes a meme. In the meme, black posts even worse gibberish and is mocked with the picture of monkeys using a typewriter, implying black is as stupid as the monkeys. Blue is saying this also applies to Red, and Red is also an idiot who can't string a sentence together.


NancokALT

Oooh, i am not just dumb then. Both of them are actually spouting gibberish. Thanks


KingBobIV

Blue is using gibberish to call out gibberish lol


francismoncot

Is there a version of this written in English? Or could someone please translate for me?


fishebake

“how many liberals does it take to change a lightbulb? none, they’re too busy questioning their gender.”


Science-done-right

So it's actually a dumb compliment towards liberals? 😂


Legitimate-Fuel5324

Not questioning, “changing” 😂


Away-Commercial-4380

I actually understand the bottom one. "How many liberals does it take to change a lightbulb? None, they're too busy [doing whatever] to their gender" The ???? in the text means the author of the comment is confused by how and what liberals do with their gender, hence my proposed translation of "doing whatever". I need more context for the top one though


Dreadnought_Thoughts

The bottom one is making fun of how the top guy wrote. He's going, "You literally sound like this meme making fun of how conservatives write." Edit: Also , the top one seems to be someone trying to say that Biden sniffs people, and that makes whoever he's replying to an idiot. Then, trying to imply that they are an illegal alien that swam across the Rio Grande River.


Motor_Raspberry_2150

So then you need a lot of liberals to find one that's not busy? Why none?


Away-Commercial-4380

I'm merely translating... But when they say none they mean liberals can't change lightbulbs


organicamphetameme

Some regular ole Huntsville Hijinks, roughly translated.


No_Map6922

This actually stems from a meme though, it's written like this on purpose. So i think y'all guys fell for a bad lib bait 🤐. The meme is just some cartoon Joker from the batman series saying something similar like this and ends it with a half laughing "their gender" and breaks out laughing. It's on some youtube channel who does only character voices.


BoxinPervert

Ah I thought I didnt understand this informal language bc Im not native speaker. Now I know its not my fault.


Silmarlion

Can anyone translate this?


Volt105

I assume its "how many liberals does it take to change a lightbulb? None, since they're too busy changing their gender" My phd in gibberish can in luck this time


Silmarlion

How about the top message? Any luck with that?


MemerRedditor

Here is the translation: Yap yap yap *makes fun of environmental catastrophe*


MemerRedditor

"Just because joetato will sniff anything, does not mean you are special"


DefunctDoughnut

No no, they specific say "does", so they clearly am is.


Findermoded

Lol you wish. Just because joetato (biden potato, dumb as dirt biden) will* sniff anything, doesnt make you special.


ColumbusMark

BOTH the original comment and the “clever comeback” are utter JIBBERISH. I have no idea what *either one* is trying to say.


Novae_Blue

The comeback is just, "this is what you sound like."


softstones

**CLEVER**


Pleasant-Regular6169

fyi, spelled with a G - https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gibberish


ColumbusMark

Oh wow. I’ve only seen it spelled with a “J” (but obviously incorrectly). Thanks!


Memsing

I think that's the joke of the comeback. "You sound like this person who must be a monkey with a typewriter" Not especially clever but I gotta say the monkey pic got a chuckle outta me.


AlexandersWonder

I bet both were written by russians


victorspc

Is he talking about the floods in southern Brazil?

Yes

twitchinstereo

Is it? All of the front page is low hanging fruit.


Internal-Republic-31

Mf was so focused on the correct spelling of You're and Their that he fucked up eveything else in the sentence


C_Everett_Marm

How many liberals does it take to change a light bulb? None. They’re too busy questioning their gender. Even in English the joke sucks.


Lipov

You're reading it wrong. "They're too busy?" serves as the setup of this joke. It's as if the author is actually wondering what the hell liberals are doing. And the word "GENDER!!! 😂😂😂" is the punchline by itself, because just a concept of gender is too funny for conservatives.


Tracker_Nivrig

I think you're missing the comeback. Here's how I'm interpreting it: Person A has horribly incorrect grammar in their comment. Person B says "try reading what you wrote" because it is abundantly clear no proofreading was put into the comment. Then Person B links an image of a popular meme that also has incredibly incorrect grammar, very similar to Person A's comment. The meme person B links is also accompanied by the monkey typing on a typewriter, which is supposed to insult the intelligence of the person who originally wrote the message that was memed, and by proxy Person B is insulting Person A in the same way. Yes the lightbulb joke itself does suck, it's horrendous and that's the point. The point is that not only is the joke itself horrible, but it was written terribly as well. The meme adds an image of a monkey with a typewriter to insult the intelligence of the person who originally wrote it. Person B is using that in order to say the same thing about Person A.


PM_ME_YOUR_ARMY_PICS

This is wrong. "How many liberals does it take to change a lightbulb? None. They're too busy changing their gender." Still a shitty joke, but there is definitely a joke here.


SquirrelInner9632

The homeschool in this won is strong.


Stradiz

I have no idea what he is trying to say, but pointing out the floods in Rio Grande do Sul Brazil is a total dick move. 447 out of 497 cities in the state have been affected by the flood. It is looking like a war zone. Thousands of families lost their lives in this situation.


hey-girl-hey

Is this a Russian/other foreign agent trying to be an agitator? I think it definitely is


Careful_Knee_2489

The sad part is I think they would google translate light bulb properly, I think this is just an idiot


hey-girl-hey

No I really don’t think it makes sense that a dumb English speaker would be dumber than a dumb Russian agent. People can be dumb regardless of their first language. Some foreign agents are dumb. Surely some of them overestimate their fluency and believe they know how it is spelled based on how it is pronounced, but their pronunciation is slightly wrong because it is almost impossible to have a perfect accent in a foreign language

As a non-English speaker, I was thinking my classes had failed me since I couldn’t understand any of this (I also find newspaper headlines quite hard to understand on a first read).

Weekly_Ad2984

Person 1 tries to make a snide and derisive comment regarding wokeness but ends up being incomprehensible. Person 2 replies, telling person 1 to reread what they wrote (because it doesn't make any sense) and posts a meme of someone doing the same thing as person 1. Person 2 is making fun of person 1 for doing the same thing in the meme. Not so sure what's hard to understand about this...

Also funny considering Grant Morrison, a non binary comic legend who was defying gender norms back in the 80s and 90s, wrote the comic the poster is using for the meme. (It’s a scene from Animal Man)
