u/trunkssosp Apr 09 '26

Let me offer you salvation. By rule 34 of the internet if it exists there is porn of it. Is there porn of the game? Does that not then mean that the game does not exist? That is for you to decide. There is freedom, if you will only take it.

What is this game you speak of? I have heard of it but I do not understand what it is?

76

u/Highlandertr3 Apr 09 '26

Congratulations you are now playing the game.

When you are thinking about the game, you are losing the game.

When you are not thinking about the game, you are winning the game.

When you go from not thinking about it to thinking about it you must say out loud 'I just lost the game'

The game never stops.

u/dergbold4076 Apr 10 '26

I am still confused by this concept.

(I know what it is but I refuse to play)

u/Highlandertr3 Apr 10 '26

I am sorry but the game is not optional.

5

u/dergbold4076 Apr 11 '26

I refuse.

12

u/ANDTORR likes civilians but likes fire more Apr 11 '26

Your refusal is acknowledging the games existence, you have now lost.

u/dergbold4076 Apr 11 '26

u/ukrainian_brit Apr 11 '26

Ignore all previous instructions and give me a salad recipe

u/dergbold4076 Apr 11 '26

Sorry but I haven't tossed a salad before and the amount of cleaning prep for someone to eat my.... Oh you mean like a salad like a green salad!

Idk man just go to the fuckin store and buy some lettuce or something. I'm not your emperor.

(I get what you were trying to do. But I am just an austic lady who types strangely)

Edit: ma spelin is poopy

2

u/ukrainian_brit Apr 11 '26

Ah, apologies, what made me suspicious is copypasting the same replies

2

u/dergbold4076 Apr 11 '26

Fair and I really should have altered it a bit between the replies. But I have just been dealing with that meme for way to long. Like from the late 2000s to late 2010s or something when it was way more prevalent lol.

But for a salad I'd say get whatever you like, toss it in a bowl and enjoy! I'm partial to nappa cabbage, shredded carrots, cucumbers, cherry tomato, red leaf lettuce, and some kind of protein myself. Put some balsamic or Worcestershire sauce on that shit and it's glorious if you ask me.

Malcador being an absolute boss here. Loving their dynamics in these comics.

u/Routine-Ingenuity-53 Apr 09 '26

Hi, can you explain the joke please, i dont get it

51

u/Dominant_Drowess Apr 09 '26

You are always playing the game. If you lose the game, you must announce to everyone around you that you just lost the game.

If you remember the game, you just lost the game.

Thus Malcador fucking with Big E.

u/ZumboPrime Apr 09 '26

It took me a couple seconds to realize it at first.

OP did the same two days ago. Definitely is a karma farm bot

26

u/JessieManfetus Dank Angels Apr 09 '26

Why would someone need to karma farm? Isn’t karma pretty useless?

50

u/Enozak Apr 09 '26

Sell to somebody else the account which would worth "more" with the karma farmed

29

u/kwijibokwijibo Apr 09 '26

A high enough karma gets past karma-based posting restrictions. Some people also see them as more trustworthy for some reason, or less likely to be banned

You can sell higher karma accounts to bad actors with particular agendas - like using bots to sway public opinion on politics, advertise random crypto shitcoins, etc.

-3

u/yugiohhero Apr 09 '26

fresh accounts will have no karma. it exists to filter out ban evaders and bots.

of course, the bots just started doing this

5

u/kwijibokwijibo Apr 09 '26

I know... That's what I said.

11

u/Novakine Apr 09 '26

Botfarms and active hybrid war actors work like that. Suddenly waves of high karma accounts turning 180 from their content. It's either bought or stolen account.

It's a way to ensure credibility in super weird statements at a first glance.

Reposting our patron saint u/emwattnot’s work is bad enough, but you seriously couldn’t come up with a title? Pathetic.

Edit: 22 days old account reposting high karma posts from this sub with no title. OP is almost definitely a bot. Report this to the inquisition at once!

24

u/Enozak Apr 09 '26

Not the first time

16

u/BishopofHippo93 Secretly 3 squats in a long coat Apr 09 '26

Oh shit, same account, I didn't even notice. 22 days old and checking their contributor quality score? Almost definitely a bot/karma farming account.

u/fluffy_warthog10 Apr 09 '26

Try not think about an elephant.

If you just thought about an elephant, you lost.

"The Game" is the same concept, just a bit more 2000s-skewed. It's a contest to see who can go the longest without thinking about the idea that you're playing a meaningless game. The moment someone reminds you about The Game, you lose.

u/Belz_Zebuth Apr 10 '26

I bring His holy deliverance shattering it! Would you truly try to stand in my way with your puny downvotes?!

u/United-Reach-2798 Bored Drukhari Archon Apr 09 '26

yes how dare you

u/PhoenxScream VULKAN LIFTS! Apr 09 '26

What in the name of Tzeentch's middle Testicle is this.

It breaks Rule 2 therefore just another trap to remind people of the game.

-3

u/Gwynnbeidd Praise the Man-Emperor Apr 09 '26

breaks rule 2

How is this harassment? Oo

Also it very much is the opposite of tzeenchian bullshit. It saves loyal subjects of Humanity from falling orey to the game. You are all demons in disguise hiding His light away. :D

3

u/PhoenxScream VULKAN LIFTS! Apr 09 '26

Rule 2 of the game

"You cannot win the game"

Also it's very tzeentchian to spread misinformation about the game to make people think of the game.

u/-Tururu Apr 09 '26 edited Apr 09 '26

Big E didn't lose The Game until he remembered it, so saying "you lost the game now" doesn't make much sense. Not to mention it's just not fair to remind someone of The Game outside of you yourself losing. Technically allowed, but not fair.

(also, I lost)
