The link was to this image:
I looked, and I laughed and laughed and laughed.
But as I tried to make sense of it, I realized how truly profound the image actually was; it’s just that the text is confusing. I’ve cleaned it up and done my best to make the meaning clear:
It all makes sense now! I feel like I am one with the universe.
For those who aren’t quite so trivia-savvy, here’s a list of references (clockwise from top):
“beware of minotaur“
“directional nautilus“
“lon lon milk“
“Justice League of America #9“
“old steve martin gag“
“complex eyedrocarbon“
“that thing from pan’s labyrinth“
“doppler effect“
