The R in recursion stands for Recursion

slaps roof This meme can fit so many recursions in it

I think this is technically a loop.

Yep. No self reference here

That's what I thought initially, but it does look like the guy on the left is pointing out the meme deeper in the recursive structure

[–] TheOakTree@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

Recursion is a noun denoting a situation that is recursive... so both work, especially considering the subjects of the meme are aware of their existence in a meme.

I didn't make the meme, pal, just stole it.
