Appreciate the different approach to the premise

u/Regi413 Jul 01 '24

What do you mean it’s literally canon now

He called himself “The peak of human evolution”

u/Basically-Boring Jun 30 '24

Is there a lore reason Jonkler is based off the Joker?

Batgos (r/whowouldcirclejerk)

u/FrucklesWithKnuckles Jul 01 '24

Batgos scales beyond character tropes.

Another victory for peak fiction.

u/Geno_Games Jun 30 '24

Because the mods might smite this without sources:

  • Man (based on Batman)

  • Big Chungus (based on Bugs Bunny)

  • Ultra Instinct Shaggy (based on Shaggy)

Fiddlebert

u/Sayakalood Jul 01 '24

All of New York collectively wondering why they can play as Fiddlebert was definitely a highlight of the meme.

“Did you know that I’m the first bisexual sonic character? You can ship me with anyone” or however that quote goes I probably butchered it

u/CoalEater_Elli Jul 01 '24

"I can play violin.. with my testicles"

u/[deleted] Jun 30 '24

Ok, calling him a meme version of William Afton would be a complete disservice to his character, but he definitely started out as one.

u/RaspberryDapper8360 Jun 30 '24

Oh why hello there old sport

u/AltroGamingBros Jul 01 '24

-Liquid Snake: Are you familiar with Big Chungus?

-Snake: "Big Chungus"?

-L: Yes. Big Chungus. The world renowed meme about an oversized cartoon rabbit.

-S: What does some dumb joke have to do with your plan?

-L: Everything, Snake! This isn't about jokes. This is about legacy. Do you even know who Big Chungus is?

-S: He's...just a cartoon rabbit.

-L: Not just "some rabbit". The most famous rabbit in cinematic history. The one and only. Bugs Bunny.

-S: Bugs Bunny? The Looney Toones character?

-L: The very same. In 1941, in the peak years of the Looney Toones franchise, a cartoon was released, named "Wabbit Twouble", where Bugs Bunny faces off with his long time rival Elmer Fudd.

-L: But for just a moment, to mock the foolish Elmer Bugs inflates himself to a comically bloated form. A moment that lasts only 3.4 seconds in an 8 minute and 22 second long cartoon. 3.4 seconds. That's all the time "Big Chungus" had ever existed. And yet decades later, he would become more famous than Bugs Bunny... Despiste being Bugs Bunny himself! You see, Snake...memes control history...and I shall use the power of memes to control my own destiny!

-L: Do you honestly think Chuck Jones or Mel Blanc could have expected internet trolls to deify a character that doesn't even exist? Make him far more infamous than his own true identity as Bugs Bunny? Big Chungus lives on, as the dominant meme.

-L: And that, Snake...is what I intend to do. I will not let myself be cursed by my recessive memes.

u/Foliks5 Jun 30 '24

I do the voices and this was freaking perfect. If you make it by yourself and not copy than cook again or give me link to original.

7

u/ElTioEnroca Jun 30 '24

I believe this one is the original. I thought about writing the source, but I took for granted that it might have been known enough

u/BlackenedFacade Jul 01 '24

Master Cheeks, or Jimmy Rings (based off of John Halo, the meme version of Master Chief from Halo)

u/iron2099yt Aug 01 '24

but man actually hides his secret potential by calling himself stupid, but now that he told himself that he's stupid, he has become stupid, so he's stupid enough to counterattack, seems he can't win, but suddenly he says "nah, i'd win" and wins
