Salles it's one of the best artists(?) of this generation. he used to translate his work to english in a parallel tumblr, but i can't find it anymore.
-
If you find his work on Tumblr or some other RSS-able site, let me know. It's good shit.
-
i'll let you know. right now i can only point you to his tumblr, but it's in spanish.

Here's a computer related one that requires no language knowledge.

Here's another good one about the last Superbowl:
Super Bowl 49
For the fans of the Pats
For the fans of the Seahawks
For the rest of the world

For the rest of the world
the rainbow phrase can be translated as "I don't give a fuck"

The joke is that despite Microsoft "killing it off", it's going to take ages to actually die.

So.... yes? That's basically the same thing?

Wow. I could not think of something that's more Misunderstood Genius Fourteen-year-old With Lots Of Societal Insight than half of those. The fact you asked for tumblr is icing on the .

Oh look, he's captured the essence of those Saturday Night Live skits that are almost funny but awkwardly go on way too long.

-
Congratulations on retelling the same joke but in a less funny way.
-
Except this isn't even almost funny. Here, let me explain the joke:
HA HA, Microsoft hates IE but it's so old it won't die for a while, but then it does.

Not funny is less funny than some funny, right?
Ben seems a bit snippy tonight. Hey Ben, that RWBY clip was just a joke.

I liked the comic he posted. I always liked that comic. That comic is the sirloin steak to my McDonald's.

See, you made the mistake of assuming I'm capable of being serious.
I'm not even being serious right now.
I know, it's hard to toothpaste.

The comic itself is moderately funny but it never really appealed to me. I didn't even bother trying to read it because it was too small even when clicking on it and I'm not about to make an effort to see the larger version when I already understood the joke.
-
It was a bit of a different setup though.
-
you made the mistake
Really, Ben? You would say that to someone who wore a headcrab hat into Kroger and work this morning and got one person at each place to jump and yell "Oh my God!"?

That sounds like a mistake unless you're 16.

I am 45 and I have yet to be shot at (even here in Texas, where neither of the two places mentioned have a 30.06 or 30.07 sign!) or crowbarred.
It may be a mistake, but it's funny.
-

Congratulations! Getting shot (at) is no fun. I don't recommend it.
It may be a mistake, but it's funny.
How is it funny?

You've never startled someone like that before?
Ok, it's probably not funny for them.

How well can you imitate those headcrab or zombie sounds though?

You'd be surprised at how little you need to in such a situation.
Although I guess that'd be a neat add-on for my motorization project.

Why would drivers be hired like programmers? That's the stupidest analogy I've heard this week.
What's next, "What if interns were hired like CEOs"?

You mean nepotism vs...nepotism?

Fine, "What if skating rink attendants were hired like F-16 pilots".

I thought you were making the joke that rc4 made. Now I'm wondering if you're trying for a or if I'm the one that should get one.
-
I'm sorry, I was looking for the funny stuff thread, but I seem to have gotten lost?
-
"What if X was hired like Y" is a funny joke if X and Y have enough in common to be a reasonably fair analogy. Otherwise, it's just kind of dumb.
-
Then why'd you fucking ask.
Because instead of a direct "Yes" or "No", you returned an explanation, which could indicate that the position was incorrect, while the actual content of the explanation seemed aligned with the original position, indicating it was correct.
You're not being very clear here, hence the questions!

No, the juxtaposition can be funny, too. And is more likely to be funny / interesting since they're so different. Like this one was.
If things are quite similar then it's easy to lose the humor where it could just look like a mistake of mixing up two similar things.
-
Also, programmer job ads are funny for being a keyword-laden list of contradictory or impossible requirements, but that humor is inaccessible to people who don't know what all the keywords mean (which is how they get written in the first place). Likening it to a car-driver job makes the humor accessible to more people.
Unfortunately they missed the part where a candidate with those skills shows up, and is then given a plane to pilot.

I dunno, piloting an entire fucking canoe sounds kind of interesting to me.

"What if X was hired like Y" is a funny joke if
it exposes how ridiculous the process of hiring Y is.
-
Well, I couldn't even notice how ridiculous it was supposed to be. I knew I was supposed to be noticing that, but instead I was too busy rationalizing why the process of hiring Y had to be a shit ton more strict because X and Y are so incomparably different on the levels that the analogy was trying to compare them on.
If someone compared programmers to, say, the engineers who built the truck, then sure. That analogy actually works.
