Saw an ad for a t-shirt with this graphic, and I wonder how many people are old enough to understand why it's funny.

@hewer_of_code it's an old meme. Someone's cashing in on an old meme that they probably didn't create.

@hewer_of_code I probably am old enough 🤪 but I don’t know the context. I grew up in the Middle East and South Asia mostly so maybe more an American cultural thing? I still love the graphic though. I find it funny even without understanding the context.

@hewer_of_code Very funny. Not QUITE as funny as Hulk Hogan losing a trademark case to a bunch of octogenarians raising funds to save hedgehogs and wood thrushes, but very funny nonetheless.
@Plumbert @hewer_of_code wait what ?

@hewer_of_code Some of us are too old to understand why its funny.

@anne_twain @anyone_can_whistle There was a trademark case in the early 2000s. The conservationists won, which is why the other lot are now called World Wrestling Entertainment.

@knowprose Yeah.
Sometime between posting this and your reply, I had a vague feeling I'd seen this before a long time ago but forgot about it.
