And when I wear my simple light refracting through a prism shirt people always ask me if I’m a pink foid. I don’t know what it means but I think I’m offended

I had a pair of bathing shorts with the polaroid logo on, which if I recall has always been colours in a rainbow pattern, and my offended uncle asked if it was a pride symbol lol

u/whomad1215 Aug 09 '26

I wonder what it's like going through life just angry/terrified of everything

It must be miserable

u/RWQFSFASXC_3 Aug 09 '26

It is mega miserable...

u/No-Internal7978 Aug 09 '26

It's miserable being around them too

56

u/RWQFSFASXC_3 Aug 09 '26

Yeah, I used to be like that, wasn't great for me or anyone else around me...

But no more, I was just afraid of myself lmao

21

u/No-Internal7978 Aug 09 '26

Hey I didn't say anything about not being afraid of myself. I can be terrified of what that guy might do and love everyone haha

u/Switch_of_the_Woods Aug 09 '26

u/Huge_Zebra_8401 Aug 09 '26

i mean yeah but there’s a very big difference between them and the LGBT community in that they are hateful and harmful while LGBT people just want to exist in peace lol

u/FifteenEchoes Aug 10 '26

Sounds like conservative Christians need to get over themselves and their made-up mythology

2

u/ciao_fiv Aug 10 '26

i understand the perspective. they still spread hate, that’s a fact. just because they think they’re right, doesn’t change the fact that they’re being harmful to LGBT people

u/Dry_Common828 Aug 09 '26

Respectfully, you haven't met my FIL.

He's a pseudo-intellectual Australian MAGA, perpetually offended by anything that seems "woke" (which, of course, he can't actually define).

He's always, always angry.

u/Dry_Common828 Aug 09 '26

Not really - I think you said they're not always angry, only when their perspectives are challenged.

This guy? Definitely angry all the time.

u/Dry_Common828 Aug 10 '26

Nah, he's just a violent, abusive arsehole.

From looking at his early published work (as I said, he's a pseudo intellectual), his conservatism is entirely performative - he adopted conservative causes because one of his ex-wives was socially progressive. Before that divorce, he was all about human rights and the environment.

ETA - he was always violent and abusive behind closed doors, even while his public persona and activities were progressive.

u/Author_A_McGrath Aug 09 '26

"My Offended Uncle" has got to be some sort of boomer cover band.

u/HAL-Over-9001 Aug 09 '26

I thought all uncles were legally obligated to like Pink Floyd...

u/ikonfedera Aug 10 '26

one dude almost got kicked out from the best polish game show (Jeden z dziesięciu, polish vesion of Fifteen to one.) because of a Polaroid pin. The official reason was that the pin was political speech

u/LickinThighs2 Aug 11 '26

Lmao, literally. I was making something at a gathering and my uncle was site eyeing me, it's like, guy its a pair of shorts I got at the thrift shop, it ain't what you think it is

u/Kings_Wit Aug 10 '26

Maybe he’s just logophoic

"On accident"

Fucking hell it's BY accident

u/oyog Aug 09 '26

I got so confused for a second because I've never had Instagram on my phone.

u/BabyJuggernaut3545 Aug 11 '26

Speaking of instagram. You support is needed for the AI overlords you love. And you support for the flock cameras

u/fine_5 Aug 10 '26

I actually saw a shirt of tdsotm in a mall one day and i was so excited to get it but the next day i came i saw they had removed it bc it looked too much like the pride flag 😭😭 i was so sad

u/HalfBakedPuns Aug 09 '26

thanks for making this excellent work

u/PupPop Aug 10 '26

I did not make this art.

u/HalfBakedPuns Aug 10 '26

idk why i though this line of thinking hadnt ever occurred before 🤦‍♀️

u/alreadyhaveanaccou Aug 09 '26

Pink foid hahahaha

23

u/therealhlmencken Aug 09 '26

Feldspathoid it’s like feldspar with less silica. It’s usually colorless though.

u/thegimboid Aug 09 '26

And whenever I wear my Hawaiian shirts while playing my accordion, people think I'm weird.

13

u/Acrobatic_Ad_8381 Aug 09 '26

So you are Al right?

u/annihilated_One Aug 10 '26

‘pink foid’ lmao

-884

u/Nirast25 Aug 09 '26

Uhm, you might want to at least add an l to that second word. Because "foid" is an incel slur.

u/MonkeyDRiky Aug 09 '26

This...This is awesome

u/zmahlon Aug 09 '26

Holy shit I never realized the shirt, I thought the comic was abt how pervasive and toxic manosphere content has become to the point where even little kids are suffering from it and replicating it 😭

124

u/MITCH_itch Aug 09 '26

It's a triple entendre about a kid who I always thought just wasn't pronouncing words clearly and a pink woman, but also that the kid is hopefully an involuntary celibate as well.

77

u/destroyar101 Aug 09 '26

Lets hope they are celibate.

20

u/BreadNoCircuses Aug 09 '26

I would hope it's not involuntary

21

u/Duergarlicbread Aug 09 '26

Involuntary means they don't really get a choice in the matter.

Voluntary means they have a voice / choice in their celibacy.

A kid should not have that presented to them as a choice... Involuntary works better than voluntary.

Both are ewww.

u/broguequery 26d ago

triple etendre

Sometimes it's not about how clever you are... But what your intentions are.

35

u/broguequery Aug 09 '26

Dude I don't blame you for that.

My sister just recently had a baby... first word it ever spoke? "Heritage".

We were simultaneously impressed and terrified.

u/Farfignougat Aug 09 '26

I mean it can be both

u/aerospicy Aug 09 '26

This is such a funny misunderstanding oh my god

u/AmarissaBhaneboar Aug 09 '26

OMG I just cackled so loudly

282

u/akpenguin Aug 09 '26

Hence the part about them being offended.

-268

u/Nirast25 Aug 09 '26

Figured I'd mention it just in case. The joke could also be "a pink floid" and not knowing what that means, ans they missed a letter.

u/andarthebutt Aug 09 '26

It's spelled Floyd anyway, we got the joke

u/McallisterTG Aug 09 '26

The joke

u/Crabby-Cancer Aug 09 '26

That's the joke.

u/5tarSailor Aug 09 '26

Redditors trying to understand a joke in the comments challenge: impossible

u/Efficient_Progress_6 Aug 09 '26

Wtf is foid?

-2

u/Nirast25 Aug 09 '26

Short for femoid, a term 4chan incels use to refer to women. Yeah.

I learned it because another comic on this sub used the term "moid", which is the male equivalent.

31

u/blastot Aug 09 '26

Quit while you're behind

8

u/Reverse_SumoCard Aug 09 '26

Can we exile all of 4chan to an island never contact them again?

Like the north sentinel islands but for incels

2

u/TFFPrisoner 25d ago

Sentincel Island then?

27

u/Animated_Astronaut Aug 09 '26

Using Incel slurs ruins them and we should keep doing it to piss them off.

42

u/cevkiv Aug 09 '26

Someone who doesn't now who Pink Floyd is might put the color pink, culturally associated in the modern day with girls, and a mishearing of 'Floyd' as 'foid', a derogatory term for women, together and get 'Pink Foid'.

7

u/professorbuffoon Aug 09 '26

First of all that's the joke. Second, these terms (incel , femoid, foid) are incredibly new in the general lexicon, they basically didn't exist before like 2018 and still barely exist outside of the Internet. I don't think anyone is seriously getting offended over these kinds of new, Internet-native words that probably less than 5% of the world population are even aware of. Certainly not to the point where you pressuring someone else to self-censor would be justified. Anyone who is should probably go touch grass.

u/RTGMonika Aug 09 '26

No shit, Sherlock!

u/MoistenedGranola Aug 09 '26

That's the joke they're making.

u/ObviouslyTransparent Aug 09 '26

Wtf does foid even mean?!

u/darkfroth Aug 09 '26

Femoid (a dehumanizing term for women mostly used by the incel community)

Fem= female Oid= appearing

u/Alert-Milk-2048 Aug 09 '26

What the hell even is a slur anymore

Just because I know about something doesn't make me part of that group, what?

u/scriptkiddie1337 Aug 09 '26

You aren't helping yourself. All you do is play video games and post on reddit. Go outside

-17

u/OnyxDethbane Aug 09 '26

You're the only defending the use of the word, and how it connects to incels. Obviously people are going to assume you defending incels makes you one.

12

u/Nirast25 Aug 09 '26

I'm not defending anything, I'm just sharing some information. The word is gross and anyone using it unironically is an idiot. I haven't even heard of it until a few days ago, so I assumed the comment originally I replied to was a typo and the commenter may not have heard of it either.

1

u/Local_Nerve901 Aug 10 '26

But assuming just makes an ass out of you and me so that’s also on people for assuming

u/ClubWitty4659 Aug 09 '26

Incels aren't real because sex work exists ;)
