    What’s the problem? It’s just like my favorite book, Men Are From Mars, Women Belong In The Kitchen Making Me A Fried Bologna Sandwich.

    Even if it’s hallucinated by the AI who enlarged the image, I like how the wife has smeared lipstick on her like Joker

    I think that’s a knife in her left hand

    The girl whispers “do it mom”

    I can’t see anywhere on the box it claims it’s fun for the entire family. It’s a two person game after all.

      This is what I don’t understand. Yes, corporations pander to marginalised demographics, but I have not once seen them lose significant income or have been boycotted. Fascist corporations, meanwhile, lost customers and stocks like Target and Tesla.

      Like really, who’s going broke? Methinks this is projection from the right, or disinformation from state or non-state actors alike to keep the population divided.

        To be right wing is to be ruled by emotions. Humans are all emotional creatures, but for some people it reaches a point where emotion alone creates reality. Facts are there to be picked up or set aside to support feelings. When their guy eats ice cream it’s because he’s a man of the people. When your guy eats ice cream it’s because he’s a baby. Facts don’t matter. It’s feelings.

        And most of their feelings seem to be fear. Fear of loss. Fear of humiliation. You can show them stats and history demonstrating how, like, a diverse workforce leads to higher productivity and greater happiness, but that doesn’t matter. They’re not looking at facts. They’re feeling feelings.

        Imagine trying to talk to someone who’s drunk. That’s the right wing, except all the time and they can’t really sober up. Honestly, it sounds like hell.

          Yo, don’t compare my drunk ass to those people. When I’m drunk I only get 100% more talkative and like 500% more gay.

        Bud lite. That’s it. That’s all they’ve got. Number one beer to number three and since it’s a massive corporation, the larger entity didn’t go broke but they’re too poorly educated to understand they moved from one brand to another under the same mega corp.

    What? I see an entire family having fun: men with the advertised product and women with seeing their men happy.

    I don’t understand the complaints here.

      It just occurred to me that I’ve never played any sort of war game with someone sporting ovaries.

      If I’m brave enough to do this, does it make me a cultural ambassador of some sort?

    In the last frame there is a thing that looks like a post it note or a paper stuck to the wall which we don’t see in the previous two frames - and they’re all supposed to be the same image, only zoomed in. It’s too blurry to be read but it appears to have something written on it, any clues as to what that is?

      In the before-times people would purchase objects that were displayed on “shelves”. They would pick the object up and carry it to a “cashier” who would then look at a small sticker called a “price tag” on the item, and charge the customer that amount.

        Still, it’s weird that the zoomed-in image came from a different copy of the game than the other two. (Or that they took off the sticker before taking another photo, and then didn’t use that new photo for the zoomed-in image.)

          I feel like the “ai” upscaling comment is probably right. The women in the last frame have a lot more detail and contrast, in addition to a partially illegible price tag that wasn’t there before.

          Like, it could be from a different photo, but why would the creator go find a whole different picture when they had one right in front of them?

            I agree with you guys. I just thought it was funny.

            Maybe they had to use a different, larger, pic to get anything recognizable? It’s an internet mystery.

          It looks like its a different picture taken with a different camera. If it was just zoomed in it would be very blurry. For whatever reason they took a picture of a different box, or got images from multiple sources to make this meme.

      It’s a price tag from Woolco. It looks like it cost $6.xx

      Looking at the fringes between colors, the last panel looks upscaled to me. Maybe the AI invented a price sticker?

      I want to believe they already played and lost and therefore have to do the dishes, while the other two fight for rank 1 in the tournament. But it’s not exactly easy to believe this 😖

    Maybe they were going to play after finishing up the dishes?

    This shitty interpretation says more about the person making the “meme” than the artist who created the original ad.
