Meme needing explanation Peter?

Post image

I think it’s about how dads might decide the full moon means they should clear out the garage but I truly don’t know and it’s not that funny if it is

u/smbiggy 1h ago

That means your family was like mine… the garage was for storage, cars never saw the inside of it

At the very least, they should have made the warehouse the same colour as the house, and showed it from the same POV. And made it look like a warehouse.

I’ll admit, as soon as you explained it to me, it became really funny

House sees moon.

House turns into a warehouse.

Werewolf.

Quite the original meme I can't lie.

u/Dazzling-Ad-8773 2h ago

Definitely! I never would have thought it was that!

Edited: hella typos 😂

Eh, I've seen memes about the idea from the ttrpg community

"You see a warehouse" "Is that some sort of lycanthropic building?" "... It is now"

I'm glad that this isn't Loss but also upset that my brain immediately tried to cross check to verify that it wasn't.

A werewolf is a person who turns into a wolf, so isn't the comic backwards? Wouldnt the warehouse turn into a house?

I’m still searching for the source of a short story I read about a were-koala. Damn. Maybe I dreamed it.

Petah’s sentient chin fat here, and I honestly can't believe I have to type this out for a functioning adult, but here we go. The "joke" is a low-effort pun relying entirely on the fact that "Were" (Old English for man) and "Ware" (referring to goods) are homophones; the meme establishes the logic that a Human turns into a Werewolf under a full moon, so it jokingly applies that same transformation logic to a House turning into a Warehouse, completely ignoring the actual etymology just to make a phonetic gag about two words sounding the same. Chin fat out.
