[+] stoy@lemmy.zip -9 points 10 months ago

Nope, this is a real photo, the Space Shuttle was transported on the back of a modified 747

[-] cdf12345@lemm.ee 27 points 10 months ago

Woosh.

[+] stoy@lemmy.zip -7 points 10 months ago

To be fair, it is hard to know if people are joking or not through text

[-] Pumafred9@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

To be faaaaiiirrr.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

No it isn't. Basic reading comprehension and context is all you need.

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip -5 points 10 months ago

Exactly, and I fon't see the context of

this one's outta this world

And the image related.

So please, instead of just downvoting and making fun of me, downvote me while explaining the context.

[-] xorollo@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

The second plane looking thing is actually the retired space shuttle.

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip -4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Ok? How does that explain anything regarding the context of the quote I mentioned?

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 11 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Space shuttles go to space. They go out of this world.

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip -1 points 10 months ago

Ok, I'll admit that I have been a bit slow today, and while I still disagree that our world is limited to a single planet, I do see the logic.

[-] xorollo@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

You're right that the word "world" is often used to represent different scales in different contexts. Some scales may be larger than our planet, and some may be smaller. The context is very important to interpret the meaning. "The world of I sects" might be a science documentary about small scale nature and the life spans of bugs. World building is a phrase often applies to fantasy/sci-fi/fiction novels or collaborative games where there is an effort to build a rich description of reality that arises from a set of initial assumptions/conditions that differ from our own reality. The scope of that may be much larger or much smaller than a single planet. The word really does have a lot of uses, and the context is really necessary to understand the meaning.

In the case of this image, for me at least, "out of this world" evokes a cliche elementary valentines or A+ style sticker on a school assignment that has a picture of a rocket ship with the phrase, "you're outta this world". If you received such a sticker in elementary school, you knew you did a good job. In that reading, the OP is cleverly telling the original meme creator that they have done a good job with the meme.

You're in a shitpost community, first of all.

Second, read some books.

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 months ago

You're in a shitpost community

Finally, an actual reason for this, I can accept that.

Read some books

I have read plenty of books, none of which mention the quote.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

You obviously need to read more books so you can learn how to understand how words go together in different ways to convay our thoughts and emotions.

Thousands of years of written language didn't just stop having meaning because you are unable to grasp jokes.

Edit: Drink some coffee and wake up dammit!

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip -3 points 10 months ago

Oh fuck off.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

Work on your reading comprehension, kiddo.
You'll get it someday.

No, this is when Taylor Swift has to fly commercial, the other passengers are forced to fly in the shuttle.

Or that’s for when Taylor Swift brings an extra piece of luggage.

[-] casmael@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Actually the shuttle for the ‘swift’ part of ‘Taylor swift’. The ‘Taylor’ part goes in the plane. It’s very complicated and requires a lot of people to put it back together again, kind of like Humpty dumpty, but with more different sizes of Allen wrench.

[-] casmael@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

Glad to see the final frontier of memes is swiftly being approached

[-] OpenStars@startrek.website 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

OMG when will this madness end?

(Hopefully not today - keep 'em comin'! :-P)

Edit: we all need...

[-] Everythingispenguins@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Which one is Taylor and which one is Travis?

[-] Samsy@lemmy.ml 2 points 10 months ago

I hope that NASA guy used prevention.
