The first instance of this joke I remember was in the post-apocalyptic action drama from 2002, Reign of Fire. Starring Matthew McConaughey and Christian Bale.
“This is water!”
“It’s important to stay hydrated.”
Was probably the most funny for reasons the director didn’t intended moment of that movie.
This comic is the Garfield for millennials. They’ll hate me because I speak the truth
Garfield is legendary so I’ll allow it.
I don’t know why people think it’s like a cool thing to shit on Garfield. It was on forever you may not like all of them but I guarantee there’s some in there that will kill you. I dunno maybe it’s people expecting that a comic is going to be hitting it out of the park every single strip which most are not.

That’s probably it then. All the fans keep dying while the haters remain.
It’s that it appeals to a certain generation of humor. The humor tends to be bland and predictable if you read even the first panel, much like this comic. But that doesn’t mean you can’t like it, if you don’t find it bland nor predictable then you are not a lesser person for finding it funny.

No, we’ll mock you for speaking nonsense.
Btw, did you mean millenials or Gen Z? Some of us elder millenials are 40 or older now, a fact that Gen X and Boomers sometimes have trouble remembering…
It’s very safe, middle of the road humour, that’s certainly true.
That’s a great one! It’s amazing the culture of alcohol had most of us expecting this to be booze
*edit: lol based on the downvotes I’m not sure who I’ve offended more, the boozers or those that said this is the joke…
Yep, that’s the joke.
I have found the misdirection most humorous.
I mean, it’s a flask. Those are typically designed to hold alcohol.
If it were a water bottle it wouldn’t be funny.
