Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

Haha never seen this before it's brilliant π€£
So what's the joke?
If you know, you know.
Visit your local library
Because Julius CΓ€sar was stabbed in the back, like this bottle Classic Caesar?
So what's the joke?
π u did it wow
I don't know, maybe 10 years ago? That was around the time I first saw this.
It's just a bottle of ranch...
ΒΏY tu, Huevos Rancheros?
Classic Caesar
Ides say quite a while.
Et Tu, brute?
Take your updoot and march out of here
This really speaks to the attention span of many a scroller. Not even a full headline read, but a glance, an assumption, and a full 5 minutes tapping out a rant based entirely on their lack of attention to whatβs written out right there in front of them.
Or it's rage baiting/humor π€·
Or a commentary on the crappy education system in whatever country the commenter comes from.
If they aren't taught Shakespeare or ancient history it's possible they may not have learned about this event in history.
the Ides is a big Tumblr holiday. I wouldn't be surprised if more people learned about it from Tumblr than from history class.
Tumblr teaches me a lot about things I never knew that I needed to know. Not about English lit and so on (I had a surprisingly thorough education in that area), but the science side of tumblr taught me more than I would ever have thought possible.
Also quite a lot about how to interact with cats.
This needs to go to roman memes.
Romaine memes.
~~Soon~~ Today.
At a guess... for a few months? (certainly less than a year π)
32 backwards is 23 which is...?
Is this a Julius Caesar joke? Is the salad the senate floor?
