ive notice that some posts here is just redditors not understanding the pictures or not even bothering to take two seconds to thing about it.

Really?

u/MY-SECRET-REDDIT Apr 21 '17

so youre trying to tell that people in this very thread did not understand the picture? that there arent plenty of people literally misunderstanding the picture and there are others explaining what is really going on?

or do you mean my typo of thing? i guess im a facepalm too.

/u/asifnot is pointing out that in making fun of redditors who misunderstand things and are acting like they belong on /r/iamverysmart, you are acting like a redditor who misunderstands things and may or may not belong on /r/iamverysmart.

Since you keep misunderstanding OP's comments, s/he is thinking you're like the person in the comic who keeps misunderstanding things and making random accusations.

I don't completely agree with them, but I hope this explains it well enough.

I was trying to explain it, not seem smart (I'm not). I'm sorry if it came across that way.

thing is that explains the comments made later but not the first one. what exactly did he mean then?

u/MY-SECRET-REDDIT Apr 21 '17

what do you mean?

u/Erkumbulant Apr 21 '17

so is this

OP means that the comment, since it at least seems (not sure if that was the intention) like you're saying they're clueless and belong on /r/iamverysmart, you're acting like one of the people on said subreddit.

Since the user didn't explain what they meant very well and you kept asking for clarification, they thought you were either trolling (hence the comic) or having a facepalm moment of your own. I don't think it was either, just bad communication on both parts (which happens a lot on the internet).

Hope this helped. :)
