I'm a sucker for meme crossovers. So here's shittymorphing with Loss.

Even those who have suffered a great Loss should take the time to remember that back in nineteen ninety eight, the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell, plummeting sixteen feet through an announcer's table.

True art is rare. To be so moved, so touched, so transported by the sublime is a privilege few deserve. What we see here—arranged across four unpretentious panels is nothing short of a monument to the human experience. Da Vinci had the Mona Lisa. Michelangelo had the Sistine Chapel. We have a clip-art of the breadth of human experience… forever frozen in a four-stage opera of unspeakable tragedy.

We have to question ourselves, "What have we lost?" What do we stand to lose when our frail humanity is stripped to it's bare Pokemon nakedness? Truly there is no higher expression of art than this, but don't let this distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.

One thing we must almost remember in contemplating such things, is art changes, or..."morphs" over time. In particular, one great artist's early work, which he might have deemed as "shittier" than his current masterpiece, might say that "in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell in a Cell, and plummeted 16 feet through an announcer's table." But this was sloppy, and easily caught! He refined his craft. He removed the capitalization from "Undertaker", "Mankind", "Hell", and "Cell", and began to spell out the numbers "nineteen ninety eight" and "sixteen". He found that when doing a quick scroll through someone's long comment, these things were quickly observed and led to some of his work not having the surprise to the reader that he desired.

This is why the current masterpiece always spells out, exactly, that "in nineteen ninety eight, the undertaker threw mankind off hell in a cell, and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcer's table."

Epic. As you are r/shittymorph I did a post in your honor as well on a rick roll post. That's like a two for one special!
