Edit to add higher resolution image:
This gives me such an indescribable feeling. Woe and mirth, regret and pride, delight and disgust - indivisible. Is this how being a cenobite feels?
Happiness was her truth 😔
But not having a working brain, apparently. You gotta be real dumb to post shit while you’re driving.
It was the all-caps. She had to take both hands off the wheel to capitalize the whole word. tsk tsk
You can double tap shift to turn on caps lock on your phone
She was on a laptop bruv
Sigh, ok.
SHE WAS ON A LAPTOP, BRUV!
If that’s a reference/meme, it’s above my pay grade.
I can’t reach the shift key with one hand
I have a s25+ and I almost always type with one hand. I am faster typing with two thumbs, but it’s not easier, just faster.
Why’s he wearing Smokey the Bear’s hat
Its up to him now.
Only Pharrell can prevent forest fires… damn those damn cuts to the forestry service
Well he needs to step up his game then! The earth is burning and that MFer is just singing little songs about how happy he is. Nero behavior.
he’s covering up his 8head
It’s the arby’s hat.
Wabbit season
Fkn hated that song at the time anyway 😆
"Movie: no outside food
Me, concealing a rotisserie chicken"
I, too, took Spanish classes
Happy by Pharrel vs Happy? by Mudvayne
Never forget that he also shares responsibility for 2013’s ‘Blurred Lines’ by Robin Thicke.
He must be brought to justice
Get Lucky was on the air at the time too
Ugh I always hated that song, the lyrics are so stupid coming out of Pharrell’s mouth, it makes no sense.
Sorry but get lucky is a banger
It’s an earworm for sure, it’s just also one of the most vapid, insincere, pandering pieces of pop nonsense ever written. And that’s even taking into consideration the existence of Maroon 5 and modern country music.
It’s a solid disco tune!
It’s disco alright, disco-ncertingly stupid.
We could try to whoop him, but he’s got a truncheon, a handgun, and a small Christmas ham hidden in his hat and he knows how to use them. They make him happy, you see.
I’d be happy too if I had a Christmas ham hidden in my hat
Better have some tin foil under there too unless you want your head soaked in ham juices.
If I’m keeping all that in my hat, I’ll definitely line it with foil. How else would I stop them from stealing my thoughts.
Pharrell with that Arby’s looking ass hat.
That hat is actually an entire Arby’s sign.
i wonder what kind of song would capture the cultural zeitgeist now, if he were to write it…
because yeah it definitely would not be ‘happy’
How about “It’s The End Of The World As We Know It”? :P
Devin Townsend wrote “Shitstorm” over 20 years ago.
And what an incredible album opener. I have listened to alien front to back so many times and get something new out of it each time
I’ve seen the future brother, it is murder.
Things are going to slide
slide in all directions
Won’t be nothing
Nothing you can measure anymoreThe blizzard, the blizzard of the world
Has crossed the threshold and it has overturned the order of the soulFuckin’ LOVE Leonard Cohen!
If you mean the zeitgeist in the US, is there a way to make childish Gambino’s This Is America more apathetic? Cause I think that’d be it
Imagine if Bruno Mars made “I wanna be a billionaire” in 2026
I think about the song, “lifestyles of the rich and the famous” by good Charlotte
Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They’re always complainin’
Always complainin’
If money is such a problem
Well they got mansions
Think we should rob them
And I wonder if Benji and Joel still believe what they said… Because I still believe it
🎵I want to be in the corner of a shitty livestream
Listening to my ex’s music, staring at the screen🎵
My remix: “I wanna be a guillotine”
Is he cosplaying as a RCMP?
Y’all need some digital detox. Especially if you’re the type of person who ruins his own mood and causes stress about things that will never, ever affect you and are going on at the opposite side of the world.
EDIT: Lemmy, please get your shit together. Digital detox means changing what you do online. Quitting social media, no longer reading news that are mostly just negative, etc. and not your daily responsibilities, higher gas bills or your kid doing something bad - that’s not digital. Completely different things.
My point was that modern humans relatively consume so much negative shit daily that it starts to consume us. Objectively we are living in one of the best times in human history, yet are borderline the unhappiest. Science has also repeatedly proven the positive benefits of digital detox (especially no longer using social media like Facebook)
EDIT2: you people are weak. Now downvote me harder, daddy
Do I get to stress if it’s happening to me and my neighbors in my country perpetrated by my government?
Colombia?
Nope, land of the free 🦅🦅🦅
Hi, American here. My shit hole country is collapsing. Can I stress yet?
Nope. Much of the world is doing worse than US. Trump regime is temporary and US will not collapse. Shit will pass. “As long as men die, liberty will prevail”
Sick, pack it up everyone! It’s been solved.
(I know you’re joking, but) You’re not going to be doing any solving whatsoever related to things you stress about besides fixing relationships with friends and family after being a grumpy old ass brainraped by fox news.
It’s a joke, lot of assumptions here too.
I meant that about people who are constantly grumpy and angry, people whose entire online activity is expressing hate and anger. I meant half of lemmy. I’ve noticed this platform is quite depressing in comparison to others. You could say “more politically active”, but your hate means nothing when it’s echoed in a bubble and eventually it becomes tiresome to others.
This meme is literally threatening to beat someone up for being happy. Jokingly of course, but still. Wake up, lemminos.
Well that’s a bold comment, let’s see how it plays out
Goes well with your username for sure 🤣
My father-in-law says the same thing. “The law is the law, just let it work itself out.” The man’s faith in the system is unshakable.
Edit: in response to your deleted comment, I’m referring to your belief that the USA will not collapse.

That’s maybe true, but not sure if it’s any consolation
Let me put it like this. Our gas price is around $8 per gallon. Our average wages are almost 3x lower. Government feels like a circus, our prime minister even recently stepped down. There’s lingering threat of an invasion.
Life’s good. Sure, I can’t travel the world or buy expensive cars, but that’s normal. Not too long ago majority could not afford more than a bed and few accessories, including in US. Can you imagine the world where everyone could fulfill their presumably capitalist dreams of being rich? What would be the consequences of mass consumerism and manufacturing?
Feels like you have lived in the golden age for so long you forgot how it’s like to be normal. Enjoy what you have and stop stressing over shit you can’t change.
what worth is liberty if people have to die for it continuously?
With all due respect, go and take a flying fuck at a flying doughnut
Imagine laughing at a meme of beating up someone for singing happy and then getting hostile after someone tells you that you might positively benefit from change in environment.
Feels like I went from 4chan to reddit and somehow back to 4chan. Everyone is so getting used to shitty humans we are becoming one.
Do I get to stress because my TV is selling summaries of my living room conversations to the GOP?
Do I get to stress because climate change has moved tornado alley into my county at the same time we’re destroying our ability to predict the weather?

Why did you buy a trojan horse in the first place?
Do I get to stress because climate change has moved tornado alley into my county at the same time we’re destroying our ability to predict the weather?
I mean…no? Just be ready for it. Make sure your basement is ok, you got food and water reserves. Imagine stressing all your life about possible tornato hitting your location. Probably would live by 20 years less. I’m living under an threat of invasion by a much larger power, and even I don’t stress about that. Got bags ready and set to jump ship if something happens.
Don’t be intentionally obtuse about the TV. People buy what’s available. Yes, there are edge cases, and no it’s not the argument you think it is to assume everyone has the foreknowledge, means, and wherewithal to employ one of those edge cases.
The U.S. government does not offer its citizens a right to privacy against corporate surveillance, and that is not something you can blame on the average person.
It’s ironic you posted this in a shitpost community. Kind of the point of this place ya?
EDIT2: you people are weak. Now downvote me harder, daddy
upvote for this line specifically lol
edit also you’re right of course :) (about the rest of your comment)
What’s the objective measure of best times?
Savings account, retirement funding, cost of living, unemployment, many ways
Could you be more specific? These many ways appear to be getting worse!
That’s actually… not nearly as bad as people make it out to be. Bad yes, but once population growth reverses, rent will stop rising and basically everything else has increased less than incomes. Just need more old people to die, the young are already not reproducing much so that’s all that’s needed.
One might speculate that climate change could drastically increase CoL despite a shrinking population.
how so? the opposite is the case. CoL generally goes down as average temperature increases (at least until you reach southern europe levels). reasons are: less wall insulation needed for houses, more agricultural output per km², etc.
No offense, but your understanding of climate change is very severely out of date. The world isn’t just going to get a few degrees warmer uniformly. Most people live places warmer than Europe and they won’t just stay to die beyond wet bulb temperatures. Even Europe will see much worse instability, killing crops and impacting fresh water access. 39,000 people just died of the heat.
Whoever told you climate change will make anybody better off, you need to angrily yell at them for misinforming you so severely. Don’t take my word for it either! Look it up on Wikipedia. This will either directly impact your survival, or directly impact how young people react to your words.
And then…
That hat alone would merit a paddlin’.
Someone has a case of the mondays!
I already found it distasteful at the time ngl
