dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Pakleds are more self aware than Elmo has ever been

Always weird to see the photos of Quark with Rom's nose prosthetic

This is 100% truth, jesus fucking christ

What firing your PR team does to a πŸ…±οΈillionaire

This is so perfect.

Who is the first guy?

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 26 points 4 months ago (2 children)

That's Zefram Cochrane, he creates the first warp capable drive in Treks history, which leads to first contact with the Vulcan, and is the subject of the film Star Trek: First Contact

[–] Beaver@hexbear.net 18 points 4 months ago (3 children)

In Star Trek Discovery, Cochrane and Musk get specifically compared to each other, and to the Wright Brothers.

The writers admitted they added that line in hopes of getting a free Tesla.

[–] Bureaucrat@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago

Getting a tesla would be an appropriate punishment for writing such a terrible line

By a fascist from the evil fascist mirror universe

[–] Beaver@hexbear.net 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

True, but I also think the writers meant it unironicaly.

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 6 points 4 months ago

Oh, absolutely, they did not intend that reading of the scene.

[–] TheLepidopterists@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (2 children)

Jesus that's fitting.

EDIT: the only problem is that technically the Pakleds do have ftl space travel, so the melon-musk comparison is a little unfair to them

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago

The implication seems to be though that it's not "their" FTL space travel, it's FTL space travel they've appropriated through manipulation.

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 4 months ago

They are also less cringy, lie and steal less, don't take government subsidies and do things by themselves. I would say it's pretty unfair.

Zefram Cochrane

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago

He's star trek jesus

Ty, haven't gotten to any of the movies yet

2010 Elon: That'll do, Captain. That'll do.

I only just recently learned that the lad on the right was the voice actor for Cobra Commander and Starscream.
