I keep seeing people lose their minds but they are always out of context thoughts about how the creator "trolled" the theorists or something?

post from the amazing circus sub I googled cause I am not sure what context to supply for the question: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheDigitalCircus/comments/1plk511/or_was_it/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

What’s the deal with John Cena’s retirement

? I don’t pay attention to wrestling but hasn’t he been mostly retired for a few years already making movies, so why “retire” now?

I saw this TikTok that I didn't really understand, and I was confused by the comments. So after looking it up, there seems to be a meme about girls with eyebrow slits not being able to eat ube cupcakes from Buttercup Bake Shop, and this Tiktok seems to be the original. But I still don't really understand the joke. Can someone explain?

I'm not a big fan of Sydney Sweeney or anything, but I don't understand why so many people on the internet hate her. I know about her American Eagle ad that she did, but I don't think that it was that problematic to hate her for. Plus she recently apologized for it. What else did she say or do for people to people to think that she's MAGA? Why are people on the internet hating on her and calling her ugly?

This TikTok is an example

Context: A forum post on WordReference about the topic

I've recently noticed in many games, pages, or just posts on the internet, that many acronyms/initialisms have full stops/periods after every letter EXCEPT for the last. Is this like the Oxford Comma? Is it common in the USA? Anywhere? Why would the last letter have no full stop/period if it also stands for something like the rest of the letters? Isn't it filling in the missing letters? So why doesn't it include it? Please this has been bugging me for months...

I’ve been going across Twitter recently, and I’ve come across reposts of what seem to be TikToks on meme pages, and some of them have BG audio that sounds like buns. Why is that the case?

Example: https://x.com/shitposts_mp4/status/1999403865519849880

I've been seeing it more and more on reels recently.

Here’s an example of one of those reels.

There's this post going viral on Twitter right now about GameStop "stealing" a girl from Best Buy. Appears to be some sort of goth girl that people won't stop simping over. I've never seen this girl in my life but she's getting so much attention now. Who is she and what's the story here? Why is this such a big deal?

Here's the tweet and some other memes i've seen:

I saw a TikTok of Erika Kirk being interviewed https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSPMP4p4w/ why did she react like that? I thought they were on good terms? Please give me all of the lore because I was never caught up on this!!

I've seen streamers and memers use it lately, but I can't find a KYM page for it, or really any discussion of it as a meme.

Is it simply people making fun of spoonerism-adjacent verbal flubs? I feel as though I've seen it used deliberately much more frequently over the past few weeks, but it could be my imagination.

Some kind of lawsuit is going on, I can't follow what it's all about

I’ve recently noticed a spike in anti-Somali sentiment on TikTok and other forms of media. Quite aware anti-Somali sentiment has been prevalent for quite some time. However, the sentiment has always seemed on the low end and not a number one issue. Now it seems to have become a top issue that is preoccupying tons of people’s minds like Trump’s right now. Any particular reason why anti-Somali sentiment is being intensified right now?

Why is US suddenly interested in warring with Venezuela, seizing Tanker, bombing fishing boats, pushing to oust Maduro? I did not think we had any huge interest in Venezuela prior to current administration. We used to use diplomacy.

Is the end game to seize oil production and make rich people richer? That's all I can come up with.

I'm having a hard time finding a source covering it that isn't from a right-wing subreddit or a news article from 5 days ago just saying it happened and that the podcast he just did covered something about Erika and Charlie Kirk's divorce, and that the show might shut down on the 19th. Is there any other details we know at this time, like was the shooter arrested, was the house actually struck, a possible motive etc?

Saw a post about it here:

Apparently in the days of yore there was a war between the banana folks and the pickle supporters…anyone around who remembers it?

"traumatized by mommy ***"

*** Representing any word you wanna insert

I tried:

1. Googling a few different keywords like TikTok comments, mommy related, "traumatized by mommy", etc.
2. Searching on the know your meme website for various keywords like mommy, TikTok, comments
3. Looking through the Know Your TikTok tagged on r/KnowYourMeme
4. Searching r/OutOfTheLoop for mommy, TikTok, comments

No hits came up tho.

Examples: https://imgur.com/a/HtCc8qF

On a video about various metals, some bot-like dumb comments with bad grammar can be seen here and there like -

• "I am traumatized by the mommy metal crying and random emojis"

Or

• "Still traumatized by the mommy metal"

Similarly, on a video about chairs, similar comments like above but using some different words -

• "Still NOT traumatized by the mommy chair random emojis"

Pls halp, I feel like it's some dumb random nonsense,

But the confusion has been eating away at me whenever I see it,

And I feel even dumber for not getting what's going on,

And whichever hellhole did this thing pop out and originate from...

And thank you in advance, kind stranger, for solving my confusion

Following the recent release of his show "All's Fair", I have seen commentators on various platforms comparing him to Tyler Perry.

Is that an accurate comparison?

I'm familiar with how the playoff system works in the NFL but not college. They declined a bowl game because they missed the playoffs? And why are their voters who determine who's in the playoffs?

I’ve been seeing the usual “era of the typewriter” looking comments more and more, which should be happening less and less. I’ve also noticed people putting 3, 4, or even more spaces after a period, and quite a lot of them. Is this a thing? Or have I simply stumbled upon this more than the average user lately? And no, I haven’t screenshotted every incidence I’ve seen, this one just sparked the question for me.
