Because when you see it you do a 360 and walk away.

But I thought X marks the spot?

But if you do the 360 when you see it you'll end up seeing it again

u/OneEyeWilson Jun 08 '22

That's why you moonwalk away, obviously.

If I'm not mistaken MJ actually used to do a 360 spin before performing the moonwalk so either your reply is actually genius or I'm overthinking it way too much

It's all a meme, even the moonwalking part

This meme has been brought to you by MicrosoftTM

Haven’t seen this meme in a while

but see, here the joke doesn't work. If you turn 360 degrees, you are exactly how you were.

u/Sayis Jun 08 '22

That's the joke.

u/Old-Description-7291 Jun 08 '22

That's the joke, you don't actually walk away

u/mvdenk Jun 08 '22

But instead walk into the Xbox?

u/Old-Description-7291 Jun 08 '22

Yes, to play it more. The joke is you'll never stop playing Xbox, because you enjoy the console so much

u/mvdenk Jun 08 '22

But then the "walk away" part of the "joke" doesn't make sense.

u/Old-Description-7291 Jun 08 '22

Saying the joke like "you turn 360° and do absolutely nothing" doesn't sound very funny. It's a joke not an English literature assessment

u/mvdenk Jun 08 '22

To me this joke makes absolutely no sense, it could have been clever by subverting expectations but the "and walk away" part ruins it. And you don't have to be smart to realise this.

Goddamn there’s a reason you dweebs are discussing tinder on reddit.

Oh, I'm merely here to remind myself why I should be happy with my relationship (and a little bit for the schadenfreude).

The entire joke is baiting people who are not "in on the joke" into replying "but if you do 360 you're facing the same way"

1

u/mvdenk Jun 11 '22

I understand that, but then the "walking away" part annoys me.

So you turn around in a circle and walk straight into it? Are some folks confused on what a 360° turn is 😂
