Well maybe I was referring to deer, and not ants. Humor is dead.

Humor is dead.

What was the joke? That your grammar is bad?

[–] UmeU@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The joke is that the meme has bad grammar, deer is plural. Rather than point out the obvious, I say that ant is plural, which is funny because it is both stupid, and draws attention to the deer/s. When my comment wooshes over heads, I follow it up with an even stupider comment, thinking that nobody could possibly be stupid enough to think that there is someone out there that thinks ant is a plural american english version of the British ‘ants’… and then I am once again astonished.

If it makes you feel any better, I got the joke :)

Thank you, I should have just kept pushing it further and further into absurdity.
