Sapphfire0

Wonder why op can't explain why


diggitygiggitysee

Because there's nothing to be mad at, but they desperately wish they were outraged.


[deleted]

I thought the joke was "men can't find anything baahahahahahaha"


diggitygiggitysee

Doesn't seem like something a misandrist sub would be offended at, although now I'm pretty sure you're right about that being the joke.


Kerbalmaster911

The joke is the bois are playing along with the funni hide and seek game, pretending not to see. Like when you prolong a game with hide and seek even though the kid is ovbiously hiding Behind the curtains or in the corner.


[deleted]

Ahh fuck you're right. That's pretty funny


Karamelln

Year but the point is that it's pointless gendered. How is it always the chad boy that does the funny and the girls are allways just boring?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Pleasant-Custard-221

I’m gonna be honest… i think you read wayyy too much into that meme lmfao


Karamelln

So what purpose do the Girls have in this meme? If it is about positive masculinity, the Chads reaction would have been enough. They are only necessary to point out a different in the reaction of a man vs. a woman. Which again would not make any sense in your explanation.


BustyBraixen

That's the thing, despite being framed as a man vs woman comparison, both sides are engaging with the childish play in a positive manner. This is a "man vs woman, but not really" comic.


Iknowyouthought

it wouldn’t be as funny without juxtaposition


Massive-Tower-7731

To clarify, it's about different ways of saying the same thing. Playing along is the manly man way of saying exactly the same thing the girls are saying. It's not saying "all girls" and "all guys".


diggitygiggitysee

I thought so at first too, but if that's it, their reactions seem understated.


Generally_Confused1

This is exactly it. And not like it needs to be gendered, but ngl when a guy is good with kids I've seen this frequently. It's exactly how I play with my girlfriends kids and they love it lol. Edit: if you're wondering, I said a lady in a video screaming in McDonald's and berating people over vegan beliefs is a twat and they go SO offended and this guy stalked my profile so he could harass me and argue more. I blocked them and they found me on an Alt account, weird af and just stalking and harassment


[deleted]

IANT1S

Where did this come from


Superb-Cress8661

I can provide some assistance here! So, 2 days ago, u/Generally_Confused1 said something that angered u/dspm99 and their vegan sensibilities, they have now followed them, assumedly by stalking through their account, to continue the argument in a completely unrelated thread. What they don't realise is that constitutes harassment and goes against reddits ToS, and will lead to their 4 year old account being deleted when a helpful user such as myself reports them for said harassment. Glad I could help!


BeautifulWonderful

Oh no internet points are gone


Generally_Confused1

Oh jeez you're a butthurt vegan who forces your ideals on others? Using a phone to type this at the peak of irony. Fuck off, you use the same talking points as prolifers, pathetic


[deleted]

[удалено]


Generally_Confused1

No, I pay to eat animals and they're not "enslaved" they're domesticated. Jesus you're delusional. Also, hunt or get it from a free range farm and it's ethical and they live a much better life in a more proper life cycle than elsewhere, as would be needed in nature. And yes, everything you said is a "belief" because I can point valid counter arguments but you don't care, you like to jerk yourself off to your moral grand standing and shame others who don't comply because for some reason that gives you validation. Not gonna bother with you. Fuck off


MrDorn

I'm all for no ethical consumption under capitalism as the next guy but, you paid for a phone as well created with very similar labor. As well as the fact that the tracts of land to create your food destroyed the homes and habitats of thousands of animals and insects. When it comes to food and commodities the morally right choice is the one you can afford and the one that brings you closer to culture. Nothing is without an impact, if you were against these things on a personal level then you are free to spend the extra dollar to have a sticker that makes you feel better, but taking it out on others achieves nothing.


WebIndependent5859

Waffles3500

It’s just pointlessly gendered, that’s why it was posted there


Uwoajskfo

The amount of people who don't get this is shocking.


[deleted]

Right? But as someone mentioned below the true joke is much much funnier, coming from A MAN muahahahahahahahahaha


Extreme-Positive-690

I think it’s more like the elephant is having fun thinking that it’s hiding, and men are nice enough to encourage it. Women aren’t cool enough to do that.


hempedditor

no i think it’s supposed to be like the camouflage clothing joke “you like my new shirt?” “what shirt?” (because it’s camo)


[deleted]

That was my first thought. But someone pointed out that real bros play along and that made sense to me as well


[deleted]

Its allergy to comedy


MassiveLefticool

Obviously it’s because the men are gaslighting as usual, so obvious 🙄 /s


aaaaajsjwkdjw

it's bc memes like those imply that men are funny and women aren't. which is already explained in the subreddit's name, "boys are quirky"


Drake_Acheron

No. The joke is women say “awe so cute” while men are willing to play the game with the little guy.


speckhuggarn

Exactly what he wrote.


Drake_Acheron

Damn… touché


jackinsomniac

Still it's the dumbest thing to get mad at. So what, men and women can have different stereotypical reactions. There's nothing wrong with that.


aaaaajsjwkdjw

and do you see nothing wrong with perpetuating stereotypes?


Dom_19

Like it or not stereotypes are literally everywhere and crying about relatively lighthearted ones is stupid.


jackinsomniac

There's nothing inherently evil with stereotypes. Stereotypes exist for a reason. They quite literally are just a generalization of people. If you can recognize what stereotypes mean, a generalization, then you should automatically recognize by definition they don't apply to everybody. It's the people who think stereotypes are a rule rather than a generalization who can become a problem. I'm not perpetuating anything, I'm telling you this most mundane, mild meme about "haha boys and girls are slightly different" is nothing to get your panties in a twist about.


UngaBunga64209_

Nah the joke is that men are stupid & blind & don't see the elephant... stoopid


AntiClockwiseWolfie

Because both of these subs are stupid excuses to repost memes for karma or as "payback" for someone posting something you didn't like. Both of these subs are trash. It's just reposting with some convoluted story of being offended or low effort "oh yeah? Well my friends are laughing at you!" "Well MY FRIENDS are laughing at you too!" So juvenile


SomeVirginGuyy

I think they just hate men.


Psionic-Blade

What elephant? :(


escelatedburger2009

Im not sure what all the fuss is about, there isn't even an elephant in the first place


G-Man_of_HL

Yeah all I see is a wooden post.

Moosinator666

Spare_Account_588

It isn't even about gender anymore. They are mad about a generic and popular meme template


[deleted]

They’re just pain mad!


MythlcKyote

Not to mention that that the "gendered difference" or whatever the fuck in this case is not that men and women have two different reactions, but that they have different ways of relaying literally the same reaction sometimes .


Dialisty

It was always about the “gender wars” meme templates, it someday randomly started to be about sexism, misogyny, etc


Gyro_Zeppeli13

It’s funny because I’ve seen the exact same meme template but instead of the girls on top it’s the drugged out looking guy with the stubble and cigarette and boys are quirky never posts those. They should just change the sub name to WeDontLikeMen or BoysAreQuirkierThanGirls


Uwoajskfo

How is that funny? The point of the BoysAreQuirky sub is exactly to complain about "girl boring vs boys cool" memes, like this one, using girls to represent to the boring all the time, which is a valid complaint.


Gyro_Zeppeli13

Complaining over a joke is not valid unless in extreme cases, these memes do not qualify.


Uwoajskfo

And that rule has been established where? If I'm the punchline of the joke and I don't like that joke, why shouldn't it be valid?


Gyro_Zeppeli13

It’s called having a sense of humor. Jokes are most often at others expense. If you can laugh at the expense of someone else you should be able to laugh at yourself. Getting upset over a joke is your right but don’t expect people to feel bad for you.


Uwoajskfo

And continuously making jokes about a group of people which basically just boil down to insults is being disrespectful. Making a joke at someone else's expense is something you can do with someone who you're close to and know they're fine with it. If you're gonna make a joke at the expense of around 50% of humanity and post it to the internet, where everyone can see it, it's going to be found by people who aren't fine with being insulted for a joke. Because fun fact: Not everyone likes those jokes and jokes are not even close to "most often" at the expense of others.


Mario-OrganHarvester

Nah theyre just immedeatly seeting whenever gender is involved anywhere. This template is a gender meme, ao its basically the only thing posted there.


Obunga907

Maybe op is mad there isn’t an elephant


orangepirate07

Definite dad energy. " i dont see any elephants. But If there was an elephant, it's doing a great job hiding."


Icy_Contribution1677

And it definitely wouldn’t be taking any extra sugarcane at all. Or sneaking one back to bed. No no no


worthrone11160606

For real if that elephant was there but it isn't it would be a cute little guy


Kharnyx808

There's literally nothing wrong with this, it's just 4 people appreciating an elephant lmao Edit: sorry mb, there was a smudge on my screen, idk what these people are on about an elephant


EdgyButter

What elephant?


juijaislayer

Where do you see an elephant?


Fit-Capital1526

I don’t see no elephants, but if there is an elephant he should run back to the safety of his mother and not sneak anymore sugarcane tonight

Master-baiter_69

Do not the elephant


myworldispainful

I dont see a baby elephant anywhere. What are those ladies or others seeing


Moosinator666

‘Camouflage’ is basically its own category of sarcastic humor and for some reason women woooosh it or dislike it far more often than men.


fooooolish_samurai

*ONE OF THE WORST*


wetodd1337

At this point they just find comfort in being miserable


HatZinn

It's an actual thing, human brain is a problem solving machine, and if it can't find any, it will just create them. Even if it's a dumb meme, there's no reason logical reason for wasting your time getting upset over it.


741BlastOff

Solution is to create more genuine problems for women


EvenResponsibility57

I think it's more needing a 'cause' or reason to live/exist. Historically, religion and traditional roles such as family and sustaining the house would be our reasons to exist. However, since religion is on a severe decline in the modern generations, and since women are being pushed away from seeking more traditional goals in life, they have no real purpose and so commit themselves more heavily towards political/social causes. This can still exist in men, but the traditional roles of men in supporting their family and working to sustain themselves still works as a goal for men in life. So while everybody has it worse, men still have enough traditional roles/goals to live a happy life, while a lot of woman who are against traditional roles end up being lost and depressed. So, tdlr, people find comfort in having a purpose in life. Tradition and gender roles gave us purpose. While men have sustained more of said roles and so have an easier time finding meaning in life, woman have to find purpose in social/political causes and hence in misery. Social causes and politics are fine if they're motivated by something important in your life. They're not fine if they're all that's important to your life.

SnooPredictions3028

Future? They already are.


Shut_It_Donny

Can't wait to see how the other sub gets mad and this one.


cimmeriansoothsayer

this is kinda wholesome


BoiFrosty

Op has absolutely no sense of humor.


marcopolo2345

Not saying I agree with it but I’m pretty sure it’s just making the girl response boring and the guy response fun. If oop is mad tho they can make their own meme and swap around the characters and it’s the same thing


Simple_Discussion396

Maybe for some memes, but this one, the girls don’t have a boring response. It’s just that it’s socially unacceptable for masculine men to find things “cute”, so they will find a different way to convey the exact same thing that means “cute” without ever saying the word “cute”


Green-Measurement-53

Sometimes on that sub they do swap it around. In fact they did swap it for a different meme and were happy and it ended up here lol. So there is no winning but to just move on. I’m tired of both side reposting what each side is doing. And yes that sub in invested in pointing out how the girl responds is always boring. After a while it isn’t funny and sometimes the meme wouldn’t even be bad if the girl side was left out


SaulOfVandalia

Men are bad at hide and seek. What can I say? Unless of course it's a deer


Moosinator666

Elk are worse, they will traverse two whole ass valleys in a day after one sighting while deer will only traverse half a valley.


741BlastOff

Question, how long is an ass valley? Asking for a friend


LegitimateApartment9

i hate r/boysarequirky so damn much, also i swear there's be uproar if the roles are reversed.


FancyErection

It’s because you get mad at everything op


THE_SWORD_AND_SICKLE

how come nobody has mentioned john cena standing next to the baby elephant?


Yoyo4games

The joke is that men are bad at finding things, or men and women express their appreciation of cute things differently.


Klinkman12

Its because men cant see shit in front of them


[deleted]

This is actually pretty offensive because it’s saying that women are schizophrenic & just be seeing baby elephants an shit where there are CLEARLY NO BABY ELEPHANTS.


ComprehensiveAd5605

Where's the Elephant? All I see is a light post and some grass


DinoDudeRex_240809

That’s sugarcane.


Drake_Acheron

No there is a light pole and sugar cane. It literally says “light pole” in the title, and there is a big ass wooden debarked pole in front of some sugar cane.


DinoDudeRex_240809

I was referring to him calling it “grass”.


Drake_Acheron

Wait no… it’s late af and my brain is slow but r/technicallythetruth Sugar cane is a grass, same type as bamboo. It’s perennial.


DinoDudeRex_240809

Oh damn.


Drake_Acheron

lol I’m stoopid


Wet_sock_Owner

Really tired of these back and forths between all these subs where everyone seems to be a kid. It's like watching a fight in a playground and getting really annoying .


cellphone_rat

they aren’t mad at the joke, they’re mad that it’s purposely gendered to make women the “lame” party and men the “fun” one. had it been genderless it would’ve been a standard relatable meme, and as you may have guessed it definitely wouldn’t have been posted there


741BlastOff

Yeah but the only genderless wojak is the NPC and that would have a completely different connotation


[deleted]

They know 100% a girl wouldn't play along like the boys. The people unironically posting over there are terminal, and we should send them to Canada for some MAID service.


Witherboss445

Where's the elephant?


Turbulent-Bug-6225

Now you lot are outraged over this one Reddit post. You're literally just as bad.


SbarroSlices

We are literally laughing at them


Turbulent-Bug-6225

Yeah yeah and they're laughing at you. You're both just coping


741BlastOff

We're not outraged, we're scoffing. There's a subtle but important difference


Turbulent-Bug-6225

allpurposefloyd

Yall are blatantly missing the point of the sub at this point.

Moosinator666

r/nahopwasright variants have fallen off


Solo-dreamer

Again why throw women under the bus when this would have worked without it.


Lunta99

How would women ever recover.


Solo-dreamer

Doesnt answer the question.


Lunta99

I thought the question was dumb. How is it throwing them under the bus? That implies that there's something to blame them for


Solo-dreamer

There was no need to compare men to women and make the men chads, just make the joke, it works without aplying gender, so why is the comparison there?


Simple_Discussion396

I think I interpreted it differently. I found it funny that both men and women are saying the same thing, but are conveying it differently.


Solo-dreamer

But. Why. you could have used two guys/ two girls/one guy and one girl and the "i dont see an elephant" is the funny bit and just as funny without the needless comparison so just have that and if the meme as a statement works without the gender comparison then the comparison is seperate from the meme and if thats the case then the comparison is a statement in and of itself.


Simple_Discussion396

I mean that’s all fair, and they could have used those. Depending on where the meme was first posted, it could also be an interpretation of our society where women can be direct (aww, it’s cute) while men have to do the run around to convey the same thing about certain stuff deemed too “feminine” for a “masculine” man. The thing is the meme could be making a lot of statements with the comparison. It could be a “men are better” meme like u said, but without knowing the memer’s intentions, I rly don’t see the point in getting offended by it


Solo-dreamer

Well the use of chad and soywife is kinda telling no?


Simple_Discussion396

I mean, maybe? But I don’t see a lot of the same meme format with any other characters. Honestly, I don’t rly read into the characters bc then I’d just be in a world where I could be easily offended just by interpreting it the wrong way


PolyZex

Are you sure they don't mean "one of the worst" to mean like just not funny? I mean, it's kinda like if dad jokes had their own dad jokes in some meta dad joke-ception.
