It's probably turtles all the way down, but I think "A[n] ~~British~~ animators's email segment co-star ~~mispronounces~~ misspells 90s greeting" might be an even smaller domino.

What's the story? I think I never heard of that
Well, I misremembered half of it, but Homestar Runner was one of the many flash animations of the flash-craze heyday. Occasionally, they were puppets. From nearly 25 years ago: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tLSgRzCAtXA
The second brick is 17% SHIB coin increase
My personal one
IIRC Pushback against "Unsafe at any speed" was the literal origin of the conservative think tank as a political movement. I think Behind the Bastards did an episode on it or maybe Stuff you missed in history class?
Now you have to explain how they relate.
I added a brief explanation
It was always Ralph Nader's fault.
(To the down voter: Ralph Nader fought to bring regulations for mandatory seat belts, among other life saving consumer safety issues he had a hand in. Man's a hero. Also, this is a joke. Ffs)
The joke worked for me.
He might have blown the 2000 election for Gore and doomed the planet to runaway global heating.
That was Chad's fault.
(And roger stone, and john Bolton, and the supreme court. And Pat Buchannon who was another 3rd party spoiler whom many ballots were accidentally cast. 20% of his votes came from that single county. Nothing strange at all.)
Which part's a joke? I can't tell which of you think you're being funny.
Seat belts> Ralph Nader, ah fuckit, you're boring and humorless.
I think you overestimate your ability to communicate irony in text-only media.
This one needs explaining
I added a brief explanation
Sorry I still don't really understand. What does "unsafe at any speed" mean?
It's a book by Ralph Nader calling out unsafe vehicle design in the 70's.
Oh damn. I didn't realise just how ahead of his time (by Anglosphere standards) Nader was. We're 50 years on and just now are the evils of motornormativity starting to be more widely understood.
At least there's a Jamaican bobsled team somewhere in the middle
This is way better mirrored
also oof
To me the mirrored version just looks wrong
like you don't mirror or otherwise mutilate well-established meme templates
it's like an unspoken rule of the internet
Have you ever noticed how they often shake left hands in a lot of shows and movies? It's probably something about shot composition or something but...
You ever wonder if everything that comes out of Hollywood is mirrored?
I like that it reads left to right! Yes, it’s also pretty uncanny haha
Personally the original also reads left to right, the punch line being the starting domino being something that's seeming unrelated to the big final domino but both works, really
Fair point!
Much impress
Much Wow
which one of those dominoes is my collection of rare pepes
They just lost all value. Post your rarest pepe or I'll report you to DOGE.
I don't know bout y'all but my rarest pepe was forged in the physical world with a pencil and a sheet of paper. It was so rare and powerful that I had to split it into 7 pieces and scatter them across the land.
I'm not sure where the pieces are now exactly. Last I heard, there were two competing search teams hunting for them, one being a ragtag team of inexperienced heart-of-gold types and the other being some sort of evil empire.
I figured it'd be best not to get involved.
If you had told me ten years ago that one day "°I will report you to doge" would be a valid sentence and a real threat, I wouldve died
Upvote comments you reply to or I'll report you to DOGE!
Sorry I'm OOTL. I presume this is the much wow shiba in memes but I didn't know this caused anything to america? Can someone fill me in about some of the dominos in-between please?
Musk and his love of memes just got appointed to a new government position at the Department Of Government Efficiency or D.O.G.E. for short.
And I was wondering why is doge coin trending so hard.
It should be said this is a newly created Department and its authorities are nebulous. Could have power over everything, nothing, or in between.
Wtf seriously!? Omg
Well… not yet. But it’s part of the circus Trump is planning
