    This is the zoomer humor I don’t get.

    Like, antijokes are cool. But absurd memes like this? I don’t get.

      I dont either, most of these just leave me puzzled, but sometimes they tickle me exactly right. Its like a YouTubePoop in a still image.

      I’m a zoomer. I don’t fully get it. It’s funny! You ever read something and do a double take bc you thought you misread it but no, this very official print document/book etc left in a massive grammar mistake, and you laugh to yourself? A lot of zoomer memes are just silly. It’s like abstract art, you’re meant to enjoy the things that break the joke as well as those that make it work. Although, to be honest, another part of why I often don’t get these types of jokes is because they’re communal. They’re very isolated from other online cultures but often depend a little bit on reference to other jokes within the subculture.
