Thanks for the title, I think I'd never got it otherwise

[–] 5too@lemmy.world 20 points 4 months ago (1 children)

This sounds like sarcasm, but the joke legitimately didn't click for me until I scanned the title again.

[–] illi@lemm.ee 13 points 4 months ago

It wasn't. I legitimately wouldn't get it otherwise. Which I also don't necessarily see as a bad thing either in this case.

I thought it was because they were all dying and fertilizing the soil with their corpses.

If you don't get the Jo try this:

Citing extensive experience, anti-vaxers are hired by cherry farm as cherry pickers.

One such cherry picker was shown to pick cherries 340% faster than non-anti-vax pickers. The anti-vax cherry picking spokesman was heard to be explaining that this data proves anti-vaxers are the superior farm laborers, and expects the farm to see a correlation in overall productivity improvement across farms employing anti-vax cherry pickers.

But that's cherry picking!

I've never seen it as "vaccers" only "vaxxers". Also, 2018!

What's a vakker?

[–] prime_number_314159@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

They're vaccers because they suck.

If you don't get the joke: the cherry farm was planted over the graves of all the antivaxers.

This picture is going to be cited by someone as actual evidence against vaccines. I guarantee it.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 1 points 4 months ago

It'd be the same quality as their other evidence, so it might as well be funny

I love stealth puns

I figured they were making hugel mounds out of the dead people and planting cherries on them.
