What's that? A shadow with two legs and a poop falling inbetween? I really don't get it.
i think it's one guy one jar
Jar size does not check out - though my mind may have distorted it to bigger proportions than it was in the video... I won't be double checking though, I'd like to think that I'm too sane for wanting to see that shit twice ^^
This is the 3rd time this has been posted this year and the comments section is still clueless even with a caption hint
I’m just wondering why that kid’s watching a guy drop a deuce
Much worse, it looks like he's watching 1 guy 1 cup... 🫥
Jar*
Do...do you really want the context?
I was one of the unlucky 10,000 the last time this was posted. Let someone else have their day ruined.
this is a nuanced topic. as much as this meme is trying to be intelligent, it's just as dumb as what it's critiquing.
you learn to think from books, but film and TV exercises that thinking. in film you'll find symbolism and metaphor and meaning, intentional or not.
being able to extract that is intelligence, not raw facts. americans love to boast about how educated they are and about the virtues of education, but why are there millions of users of goodreads and letterboxd and few can write a coherent paragraph about a book they read or a film they watched?
it's because of this type of braindead thinking--it's all about imagination!!! imagination is great, but it's really about thinking; it's about not being stuck in thought patterns that lead nowhere.
Like I understand the sentiment but I've got ADHD so the sentiment is bullshit for me.
I have ADHD so when I get into reading I read a lot, but I haven't been able to focus on reading anything in like 4 years.
This is uh...
Yea it's been exactly about 4 years since I put down my book to go to sleep and never picked it back up. Yes I have ADHD too.
And it was an interesting book! It was a Discworld book and I've heard it's one of the funniest ones.
I got up to book 11 of The Wheel of Time. ADHD is truly torture.
Shadows confirm he's a dark mode chad
I have aphantasia.
How does reading and watching it in your mind's eye change anything from just watching it on a screen?
I prefer audio books because it allows me to critically think better during because I can listen and think at same time, but reading words takes more brain power.
I guess it's a matter of preference, because in my mind there's no way listening takes less brainpower than reading.
I think it must be a spectrum or something because I'm fully capable of mentally picturing things in detail if I want to, but it's a thing I have to actually /do/. It doesn't just happen automatically when I'm reading, I have to make a deliberate decision to picture the scene.
That's wild, I am the complete opposite.
When I read my mind takes what I am reading and provides a rich imaginatory backdrop replete with emotional undertones that unfolds and plays out as the words become concepts and the concepts link together in context to the plot/scenario/etc. It's like a combination of a movie and playing make-believe in real time. It doesn't seem to require any particular effort, it just happens automatically.
Except with math heavy subjects, I can usually get the gist of any topic by reading about it.
Conversely, I can barely follow audio instructions or explanations at all. Having something explained by a friend is fine, lots of back and forth until it clicks. Casual listening, like a fiction book, is fine.
Anything else and I get a little lost halfway through, usually trying to remember the first thing that was said.
Being at work is torture because I'm nodding along with the boss but I usually don't know what the heck he's talking about if he's trying to explain something complex. Just let me read the documentation, bro.
You do sound like the opposite. Do you have hyperphantasia?
I'd definitely take just audio over reading any day.
Reading just requires me to play the audio in my inner voice. If someone else read and said it then it's less brain power for me.
Hyperphantasia. I had to look that up. While it is pretty descriptive of my inner world, I don't think I would ever self-identify as that. Feels.. a little much.
I find the whole concept of cognitive styles fascinating and I think there is a trade off. While the advent of reading is certainly a great thing, I think for many it has shrunk a part of the brain that processes speech. Prior to books, if you needed to know something you had better listen close, comprehend it quickly, and be damned sure you remembered it because there may not be a second chance.
yall are missing the edit on top of the original boomer humour LOL
when i first saw this meme i thought the left one was a dark fountain from deltarune lol
I mean they do represent fiction
