ShiroKuroI don't know why this is so funny...
But it is. If you haven't seen it, please watch it, with sound on. Yes, it's a Bernie-mittens meme, although I think it really transcends the whole thing....

ShiroKuroI have watched it a gazillion times and it cracks me up every time.
Why? Why is it so funny? I don't understand humans. Self included.

Steve MillerYup - that’s funny!
What makes the meme so endearing, though, is that it’s light hearted. It doesn’t put anyone down. It’s not political. I’ll bet Bernie likes it.
It’s a new day.

Piano*DadI wonder if anyone has told him ...
Yeah, he would like it.

RealPlayerYes. That melds the Bernie meme with the sea shanty meme, which is itself inexplicable. Like the passion for Gregorian Chant that appeared out of nowhere 15 or 20 years ago.

I blame Hildegard von Bingen.

LisaYeah sea shanties seem to have become the hot thing among the kids. LL#2 played this exact song for me the other day, bluetoothing it from his playlist. High schoolers are non-ironically jamming out to these things. I don't get it. I suppose that makes me officially old.
ETA - and now it's stuck in my head, again. They are catchy little buggers!!!

Ok that's hysterical!!!
Maybe the internet is making the sort of standard sense of humor more quirky than it used to be?

CHASI don't get it either.
But I laughed

NinaIt all started with TikTok. Kids these days!

If you haven't seen the original TikTok, you really should.
you don't have to watch the whole thing25 January 2021, 01:12 PM
ShiroKuroNina!!! OMG!
I might just put that on and let it play all day.... (it's just the 2-ish minute long song on a loop).
I love the bass.
Why is this so addictive???

AdagioMI loved the sea shanty meme, and I loved the Bernie meme, so how could I not love the mash up?

Ninayes! people just grabbed it and ran. If you google Wellerman Sea Shanty YouTube you'll get a jillion different versions.

AdagioMI feel kinda bad for the person who took that iconic Bernie photo. I’m sure they got paid by the news media/Getty Images. But so much more has happened after that...
