If there were an occasional thing where I looked at it and thought “wait, is this Loss?” that would be funny. But I see them way too frequently for them to be funny. They need to be subtle and occasional, taking one off guard. Instead they’re frequent and unsubtle.

There are better CAD memes, imo. I forget their url, but there’s someone on Tumblr who does really good surreal edits.

I think CAD is kind of a fascinating trainwreck in how it stumbled down the gimmick-comic-to-dramedy pipeline. Loss is one symptom of that, but god, there’s so much more, and “it’s bad because a comedy decided to do a serious episode!!” doesn’t cover it.

It’s the new Rick Roll

I mean, the original wasn’t funny either (and became notable because of how jarringly unfunny it was), so I guess that’s kinda the point.

Im at a loss for words

personally I think they’re funny 🤷‍♀️

Loss is just failboat for tryhards

Its similar to a rickroll, its funny to poke other ppl with this meme.

Some give a mild chortle.

Does this work here as well?

edit: eyy, it does!

Yes. It’s funny. It’s the same kind of funny that “the game” (ha goteem), rickrolling, stick bugging the thing with the hand okay symbol, and even so far as “made you look” is. Just a simple easily spreadable and understandable “gotcha” to share with friends. It’s constantly evolving and in a short time it will be something else with the same basic mechanism to be used as a gotcha and it will be funny too. Something doesn’t need to be deep to spread a little laugh.

Yes

Your words are all lying down. Can’t tell if this is loss or not.

Loss is only funny with the context of what an enormous shithead Buckley was online for years prior; it was the juxtaposition of sanctimony in the comic against his awful miscreant behavior that makes it laughable to begin with.

If you weren’t around and involved in the scene to see the kind of person Buckley was when loss was released, then you’re just laughing at an echo of a joke.
