I truly truly want to understand this.

I cannot understand what motivates this post.

I’m obsessed with typewriters and I do not give a fuck if it makes sense to anyone else.

Honestly.

So I simply don’t understand why anyone cares if something that makes them happy makes sense to anyone.

What is this preoccupation?

Truly.

Example: I’m pretty certain even this question will not make sense to some people. That’s not on me. It’s on them.

But for the author of the meme and for the people that this query makes sense to: why?

Why this meme.

Is it saying that if I am an ancient and eternal god and it makes me happy to eat my children, it is permissible for me to eat my children?

Because regardless of how happy it makes you to eat your children, it’s not okay.

And clearly I get that the idea here is not the promotion of children eating, but I have zero idea what it is promoting, supporting, or critiquing. Consider me out of the loop. What does this mean, and more importantly, why?

Will you help me understand it?

This meme was made by me to make fun of a motivational quote by taking it literal to the point of absurdity.

It's okay, OP, it makes me happy too.

Wait! I’m the intended audience. Thank you.

How do the folks you are satirizing receive it?
