    Hey! I read a blog once also. You’re telling me I’ve had the option all this time, to become a deranged, delusional maniac?

      We all had the option all this time to become a deranged, delusional maniac on this glorious day.

      The great part is, you don’t even have to have read a blog! Even merely having learned to speak is sufficient!

      And maybe not even that! Wild howling! Guttural noises! Ooga-booga! Ugg! Waaga! Eeegh-eeegh-eEeEe!

      … I fear I may be too good at this.

      As someone who also has no talent or expertise, the comic does make it seem kind of appealing

    “Now go tell those experts who the real guy who once read a blog is” is my new favourite response

      Also impressive:

      Wow! I used to be a sad loser who lost my kids from drinking too much, but now I’m Neo from the Matrix. Hya!

    I prefer the conspiracy ouroboros:

    Conspiracy theories do not generate spontaneously. They’re all crafted deliberately by a nefarious cabal of corporate interests to distract and manipulate the public.

    Killer comic. Last panel’s a little weak though. Maybe it should break the fourth wall, like the guy looks at the reader and is like: “This is causing all the world’s problems.”

    Anyone else notice the bots with 5 letter names spam posting comics here? Didn’t take long for bot infiltration and karma farming to infect the fediverse.

      1 - I’m not a bot.

      2 - Posting content which people are upvoting, commenting on, and enjoying IS NOT spamming.

      Is your life so easy and dull that you have to invent imaginary outrage over nothing?
      If people weren’t posting here then you’d bitch about lack of content. Go back to reddit!

      I’m not sure why anyone would think “karma farming” would accomplish anything here. Can most users even see the karma others have on Lemmy? I know I can’t.
