Im glad you like it!
This one might be overused but it's a personal favorite of mine
I especially love the one on the bottom left because you know someone told the artist "you know, cats? Stay up all night, get the mice out of your house, generally pretty moody?" and the artist was like "...yeeeessssss....caaaats. Right." and just assumed that the cats are bipedal because no one thought to tell him they aren't.
Brilliant!
Oh there's a set of these memes?
Excellent stuff, I eagerly await the next
Is that music next to it? Does that mean this is actually a bass clef?
Thank you!! I looked at this and figured the real joke was calling a bass clef a fucking "D" 😂
Here's a statue that this made me think of.
Not sure why someone would make a statue of a boy having sex with a turtle.
it's a metaphor
I thought it was depicting Urashima Taro but I guess it could be what you said.
Here is an article on it. It's by my office. And that boy is behind the turtle not on top of it. No one knows the meaning of it. And the guy that made it committed suicide not too long after.
That's a clef
*cleft
Butt crack is a cleft
Now this is a clef for truly fiery beats!
