      It’s cool, you’re sharing it with all of us.

      God damn this is funny.

      Same.

      My wife and her friends think the “square hole” video is hilarious, but I don’t know anyone who is aware of the Amigara Fault comic.

    I’ve seen this a lot of times, and I still love it. Usually there are some comments asking whats going on, by some people not knowing some layers, but I can’t see one yet. Are we finally arrived to an utopia where everyone knows all refrences? Where is today’s lucky 10000?

    A+

    Is there a name for a rememberrey like this, but it is a very specific meme crossover?

    Like, a t-shirt with the Mario font but the text is bros before hoes, or something mainstream pumpkin spice like that. That’s a normal crossover.

    I only like crossovers when no one else in my life will understand them, whatever you call them.

        I also want the description to only be understood by the in group.

        Like saying 196 to someone, or reciting the pillars poem, or the 40k mechanius creed.

            Right, would have to be even more obscure than that. Like you can’t call it a jork report. Too main stream.

      I enjoyed hearing about meme crossovers in a recurring Reply All segment where they would take a host who didn’t understand a complicated Tweet and break down all the pieces.

      Here’s an excerpt that stuck with me:

      PJ: Dog underscore rates. Ok. So, there is a–there is a Twitter account, uh, that has over 2 million followers.

      ALEX BLUMBERG: Ok.

      PJ: And it is devoted to rating peoples’ dogs,

      ALEX BLUMBERG: Rating them.

      PJ: Yeah. So like, scale of one to ten?

      ALEX BLUMBERG: Ohhhh.

      PJ: Except they always give them above 10. Like, every single time. Um, can I just show you the best moment in WeRateDogs™’ history? Where a guy got angry, that he thought the ratings system was skewed?

      ALEX BLUMBERG: Uh, so, this guy Brant?

      PJ: Yeah.

      ALEX BLUMBERG: He was like, “@dog_rates You’re rating system sucks! Just change your name to cute dogs!” And then WeRateDogs™ wrote back: “Why are you so mad, Bront?” And then he said, “Well, you give every dog 11s and 12s, it doesn’t even make any sense!” (laughing) That’s a guy who is not in on the joke.

      PJ: Yes.

      ALEX BLUMBERG: (laughing) And then WeRateDogs™–and then WeRateDogs™ says, “They’re good dogs, Brent.” Brant: “It’s a cheap gimmick!” WeRateDogs™: “Well Brint, (laughing) the people love it and I’m doing it for them, not you.” Uh. Brent: “All I’m saying is you could have real legitimate ratings instead of every just saying (laughing) every dog is a 10, 11, or 12”

      PJ: So like, that is basically–that is like a good encapsulation of what is good about this.

      ALEX BLUMBERG: (laughing)

      PJ: (laughing) Alex Blumberg is losing his mind.

      ALEX BLUMBERG: Oh, “They’re good dogs, Brent” is really funny.

      Here’s the episode: https://gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-all/o2ho9j
