I think I’ve given up on finding Farside funny. I must just not be enlightened enough.

Who made a community called “shermanposting”? Why does it feel like entire communities are made to support a single post sometimes?

Thank you for sharing. I now grasp the disConnect.

I mean, it tracked just fine for me when I read this.

I’m using Connect.

I’ll give a very literal example joke demonstrating how this used to function.

NOBODY:

ME: Yes, I did get a haircut. Thank you for asking.

See, nobody asked, but the speaker was still compelled to share this fact (or in other cases, an opinion). Over time, it became such a common format that people didn’t even grasp the initial purpose beyond it being convention. The term “POV” in captions is used this way now too.

Is the display different for others? Mine shows the word balloon on top but the text on the bottom instead.

I don’t know if I can get on his side for this one.

Why did you have to give away a dog? What made you able to get given a new one?
