[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

Wow, does this show my age?

Saddam was a huge thing 30 years back, crazy to realize that now people already forgot.

Haha, I'm not from the US and have missed out on how Saddam Hussein is related to that shape? For me it seemed a bit random to have a mummy shape without any letter associated in a data is beautiful post. What's this about though?

E: ah yes, found it: https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/saddam-husseins-hiding-place

[–] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I'm imagining this video but with "Saddam Hussain" instead of "cookie monster"

Damn, I just thought the joke was that the letters were referred to as "English". Boy, was I disappointed.

[–] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago
