    You know, when it was beans or jeans or whatever that one guy was spamming like crazy, It stuck out like a sore thumb to me. I found it rather tiresome TBH. But with the moths, I just laughed. Perhaps I've seen the light?

    If someone can shine some light on this, that would be great.

    Ask your moth-er

    A moth goes into a podiatrist’s office, and the podiatrist’s office says, “What seems to be the problem, moth?”

    The moth says “What’s the problem? Where do I begin, man? I go to work for Gregory Illinivich, and all day long I work. Honestly doc, I don’t even know what I’m doing anymore. I don’t even know if Gregory Illinivich knows. He only knows that he has power over me, and that seems to bring him happiness. But I don’t know, I wake up in a malaise, and I walk here and there… at night I…I sometimes wake up and I turn to some old lady in my bed that’s on my arm. A lady that I once loved, doc. I don’t know where to turn to. My youngest, Alexendria, she fell in the…in the cold of last year. The cold took her down, as it did many of us. And my other boy, and this is the hardest pill to swallow, doc. My other boy, Gregarro Ivinalititavitch… I no longer love him. As much as it pains me to say, when I look in his eyes, all I see is the same cowardice that I… that I catch when I take a glimpse of my own face in the mirror. If only I wasn’t such a coward, then perhaps…perhaps I could bring myself to reach over to that cocked and loaded gun that lays on the bedside behind me and end this hellish facade once and for all…Doc, sometimes I feel like a spider, even though I’m a moth, just barely hanging on to my web with an everlasting fire underneath me. I’m not feeling good. And so the doctor says, “Moth, man, you’re troubled. But you should be seeing a psychiatrist. Why on earth did you come here?”

    And the moth says, “‘Cause the light was on."

    Of all the Ottawans to make it in entertainment, Norm's my favourite hands-down.

    Its Jean Jacques Rousseau for me.

    It's throwing me off that there's the Jean Jacques Rousseau, philosopher in Europe, as well as a Jean Jacques Rousseau, philosopher who at various points was in, and is perhaps from, Ottawa.

    I could just be missing something, but might you be thinking of Jacques du Gatineau, the great hope of Témiscaming, Quebec?

    In my experience it's more about nginx these days.

    SnokenKeekaGuard (pillar of the shitposting community) has been compelled by the spirit of lepidopterology and commenced a dedicated wave of mothposting.

    Embrace it.

    I like to think it is a sign that Silksong is coming out soon.

    It was a big long fad on reddit like a year ago. I guess it is just finally making it to lemmy

    the answer can be found by pondering your orb while eating beans and wearing jeans

    If there's one thing sites like this are good at, it's flogging a joke to death, sometimes to the point where it becomes funny again. Not quite there yet. ;)

    First it was the beans. Then it was the guy who couldn't poop. Now it's moths. What don't you understand?

    Someone invested heavily in moths and lamp memes. Gotta unload the stale goods somewhere.
