Garage sale find

Did MemeCenter sell printouts of memes as postcards or posters or is this a metaphor?

I think it's that it's a meme so old your granddad would have thought it was funny back when he was your age

Still, I don't get the meme itself. Is it like the "dad's way to school" joke where he came every day despite the worst weather ever?

(My grandpa grew up in the mountains and always told us about the one time he was the only one to show up to school despite living in another village after 120 cm (4 ft) of snow fell in one night so this is the first meaning coming to my mind, the other one involves cum but that would not be antique)

You'd be surprised ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I know, cum jokes are ancient but they seem to have risen in popularity on the Internet recently; they are regarded as one of the pillars of Gen-Z humor.
