    I’ve been thoroughly enjoying these memes. They remind me a lot of when shittymorph would get you with the undertaker bit. Except now I’ll be looking at cool science charts that are genuinely interesting only to find someone snuck in a sneaky Saddam.

      The interesting thing about the scientific charts that have been used in these memes is how they often twist or oversimplify data while trying to hide Saddam Hussein to create a humorous effect. Although the scientific accuracy may be in question, please don’t let this take away from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and he fell 16 feet through an announcer’s table

        Oh boy, I really miss some of those accounts with comedy bits and I just assume they stopped posting when I left reddit so that I don’t have the urge to go back and double check.

                  Looks like you are interested in beef STROGANOFF! Thank you for confirming your subscription to beef stroganoff facts, where we send you daily fun facts about BEEF STROGANOFF! Did you know that in 1891 the French chef Charles Briere submitted a recipe for beef stroganoff to a competition sponsored by the French magazine L’ART CULINAIRE leading to the assumption that he was the inventor, but both the recipe and name existed before then!

          Tbf, a lot of the novelty accounts died off by the time we all moved to lemmy. Sr grafo and shitty watercolor are the only ones I remember popping up regularly. I do miss the jumper cables guy thought. RIP

    Reminds me of a prank I have read about: someone scanned a large WiW poster, photoshopped Wally out, and had it printed. Then he used it to keep the kids busy during a family gathering.

    I found Waldo Odlaw, the Wizard, and someone who may or maybe be Saddam Hussein if you squint. It’s pretty pixeley and hard to judge.

    Not sure if I’m not getting some cool kid joke now or what. He’s there near the center-right upper portion, but it looks photoshopped or something and off somehow, but I can’t zoom in enough to tell what’s going on.

    There’s also a nerd walking on some guy’s dick just to the lower right of there as well.

      If you are looking for Waldo you are falling for the same old tricks. The real challenge is finding the hidden dictators details.

      Idk why but Waldo is in black and white instead of red n white.

      But look up near the right 1/3 right on the shoreline.

        In Waldo/Wally books there’s a character called Odlaw/Yllaw that is identical but in black and yellow (which usually ends up looking black and white.

      Oh, just on the shore line.

      Yes, he is supposed to be photoshopped. AFAIK, it’s a science-memes thing not a general lemmy thing.

    Is this the one where Waldo doesn’t have his hat, glasses, or cane? I remember that being a thing in at least 1 of the books.

    Edit: I guess technically? I was over here lookin’ for Waldo and not a middle-eastern dictator. 🤷🏻‍♂️
