Pointing out the alien color palette looks like it changed 3 times

[–] thawed_caveman@lemmy.world 6 points 5 hours ago

I don't think this is real. Not because it's a crazy scenario, but because the aliens would definitely make a better simulation.

Frankly all i wanna do is escape this reality, so

The location of the tear in panel 3 and 4 relative to the protagonist’s body prevent me from fully enjoying this piece

[–] wolfshadowheart@leminal.space 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

The tear is the fabric of reality, not the beer bottle. You remove the bottle, the tear is still there.

[–] Faresh@lemmy.ml 6 points 6 hours ago

The problem boobies is referring to is the fact that the tear's shape should be horizontally flipped when seen from the other side, but it's just sorta scaled up in the comic.

Maybe you are seeing through the simulation yourself, and are actually taking part in weird alien sex. Makes you think..

[–] breckenedge@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

That and the color change of lobster’s shirt

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 12 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

We used to say that peeling your beer label was a sign of sexual frustration. Hmmmm...

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Can't be, my friend did that all the time and I'm the one being frustrated? 🤔

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 5 hours ago

I'll have what he's having!

[–] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 49 points 16 hours ago

That’s some delicious existential horror right there!

Joke's on you, I'm into that shit

[–] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 67 points 23 hours ago (6 children)

What if I want to be awake for it?

Wait, what? A gregtech instance?

[–] gregor@gregtech.eu 7 points 7 hours ago

My name is gregor, I like to do tech stuff, I am from the EU and I did not check whether something named "gregtech" exists before registering my domain name.

[–] SailorMoss@sh.itjust.works 17 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I mean how much worse could weird alien sex be than our current reality?

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago

don't ask questions if you can't fap to the answers.

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 16 hours ago

That's why you're still a virgin.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 52 points 23 hours ago

If they wanted consent they would just ask.

[–] Hammocks4All@lemmy.ml 9 points 19 hours ago

That explains everyone who was never here

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 58 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Not a very good matrix, that reset button doesn’t even wipe his memory he will be up again in five minutes.

[–] PlantDadManGuy@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

Nah they'll just label him as schizophrenic and put him on some antipsychotic drugs.

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 40 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Just a sensory reset. And they fixed the bug that let him get out. Enjoy your nightmare.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 2 points 12 hours ago

Hey. That bug's name is Larry, and he has 5 kids and a houseboat.

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 131 points 1 day ago (2 children)

This is very rick and morty, I love it

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 54 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Truely the dark souls of comments right here.

[–] BenFranklinsDick@lemmy.world 33 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

This is the Skyrim of humor

[–] dragonfucker@lemmy.nz 2 points 14 hours ago

Getting some Boss Baby vibes from this comment

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

CHEEEEEEEEESE

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 28 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Relax, everybody, he signed a consent form before having his mind submerged deep into a fictional reality while his body becomes used for weird alien sex.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 70 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Not exactly, he agreed to the terms of service of a Disney Plus account and the alien R**e Corporation was located on there property And the terms of service included wording including all services associated with Disney Parks.

It won’t hold up in court but luckily the terms force all disputes to be handled by forced arbitration so legally they did nothing wrong.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 11 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Thats a cute fantasy but forced arbitration is illegal in weird alien sex contracts.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 21 points 23 hours ago

It was unconstitutional last year but Sonald Srump Was elected along with the entire government being replaced by Sepublicans and they rewrote the constitution in Alien court to remove constitutional restrictions on corporations.

[–] QProphecy@lemmy.world 53 points 1 day ago

I always hate it when that happens

[–] superduperpirate@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Makes me think of the “My name’s Buck and I’m here to fuck” scene in Kill Bill.

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Sadly, this just reminds me of Gisele Pelicot.

[–] scutiger@lemmy.world 7 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

My name's Buck, and I'm here to party.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 1 points 12 hours ago

My name's Eddie, I like Spaghetti

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 27 points 1 day ago

You could if you weren't a coward.
