I’m pretty sure you know what follows…
Image transcript
A recreation of the Piper Perri Surrounded meme. A white CASIO CFX-9850GB PLUS calculator is laid on its side on a cushion while three TI-83 Plus and two TI-84 Plus calculators, all black, are standing behind the cushion. The faces of corresponding actors are shown in 4-tone pixelated pictures on each calculator’s respective screens, grayscale on the TIs and sepia-toned on the CASIO thanks to its (limited) color graphics. Words of the text “Original meme by Chaotic Neutral Czech” are used in place of the SHIFT functions on a row of keys on the Casio as a mild watermark.
You misunderstand the purpose of this community so hard
From the about section:
Welcome to /c/fakehistoryporn@lemmy.world , where fake history is made. Find a historically significant photo, come up with a fake history title, post it, laugh.
I did read the sidebar but I don’t think it’s a major problem - as I explained above, this is fake, history and porn, and will likely be appreciated by subscribers of this community.
I do think it is fine, but the point is…
I mostly agree but I would not call it the point. The point is to have fun over fake history. This is a rule or guideline which I admittedly broke de iure but I think I acted sufficiently in the spirit of our community that such posts should be allowed sparingly (as long as they don’t overrun the community outside its moderators’ intentions). In 2020, I posted this on r/memes, r/mathmemes r/fakehistorymemes, where it arguably fits better, but the r/fakehistoryporn post got most upvotes and there is no fake history memes community on Lemmy anyway.
