− | This comic depicts a sex scene with [[Cueball]] in bed together with [[Megan]], and a sentence being spoken by Cueball. The sentence's overt meaning suggests Megan doesn't wish to become pregnant, but Cueball has prematurely or unintentionally {{w|ejaculated}} inside her. The sentence contains five popular (at the time) {{w|Internet meme|memes}}:
| + | First up, we have a sex scene. [[Megan]] doesn't want to get pregnant. Unfortunately for both of them, [[Cueball]] ends up ejaculating prematurely before "pulling out". |
− | *'''[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/xzibit-yo-dawg Yo Dawg]''': With the full meme having the form "Yo Dawg, I herd you like (noun X), so I put an (noun X) in your (noun y) so you can (verb x) while you (verb y)", this is the largest meme used in the sentence, and lays out the overall structure of the sentence. The greeting at the beginning can be changed to "Sup Dawg" as in this comic.
| |
− | *'''[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-herd-u-like-mudkips I herd u liek Mudkips]''': The misspelling of words "herd" (heard) and "liek" (like) come from this meme. While this meme is usually used with {{w|Mudkip}} (a {{w|Pokémon}}), in this case the noun has been replaced by something she didn't like.
| |
− | *'''[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/how-is-babby-formed How is babby formed?]''': The expression "forming babby" (with the misspelling of "baby") comes from this meme. This meme comes from a question that was originally asked on Yahoo! Answers. The full question was "how is babby formed / how girl get pragnent". This meme was also referenced in the title text of [[481: Listen to Yourself]] and in [[522: Google Trends]].
| |
− | *'''[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-accidentally I Accidentally]''': This meme carries the pattern of omitting an important verb, leaving the reader wondering what had happened accidentally. In this case the omitted verb is presumably "came" or "ejaculated". This meme was referenced again in [[997: Wait Wait]].
| |
− | *'''[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/in-ur-base In your base]''': This references the Starcraft meme "im in ur base, killing ur d00ds." It also might be used for its relation to {{w|baseball metaphors for sex}}, which was also referenced in [[540: Base System]]).

− | In plain English, the sentence roughly means:
| + | Rather than apologize or try and salvage the relationship, Cueball responds in perhaps the most absurd possible way and invokes five then-popular internet memes in one sentence meaning ''I know you don't want to get pregnant but I accidentally ejaculated inside you''. Cueball's life is now thoroughly "ruined", as this incident would likely put a damper on his relationship with Megan - or lead to impending fatherhood - but at least he now has a superficial and respect-less world record. |
− | : ''Hey girl, I heard that you don't want to have a baby but I accidentally came inside you.''
| |
| | | |
− | The comic then goes to describe the pros and cons of the situation. "Ruined life" is listed as a major downside, as he may have caused a girl to become pregnant against her wishes, and may have to father a child with her. The usage of memes in response to the situation also conveys an uncaring attitude that is likely to put a damper on their relationship even if she did not get pregnant. On the other hand, it is noted that the sentence could set a new record for the density of memes (most memes packed into the fewest number of words) which can be considered a positive. This explains the title of the comic, though it will be a very superficial and meaningless record, especially when weighed against the downsides.

| + | *[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/i-accidentally I Accidentally]. In this meme the verb is omitted. In this case the omitted verb is ''ejaculate''. |

− | The reason Cueball chose to construct the sentence with so many memes is not clear. Since the comic lists "ruined life" as one of the cons of this scene, it would seem that the accident, as well as the subsequent use of memes, were not planned. It's possible that Cueball had too many memes in his head and couldn't think of anything else to say amid the nervous tension. If this were another character, say Black Hat, then it would be easier to believe that the entire night could have been staged just to give him an opportunity to use the sentence and set a record.
| + | The title text references {{w|4chan}}, a site known for its {{w|Internet meme|memes}}, {{w|Troll (Internet)|trolls}} and other assorted internet clutter, and sarcastically implies that any advice they might give would in any way be at all helpful. Due to its population of trolls and other unhelpful sorts, advice given by 4chan would normally be useless at best and actively detrimental at worst; however, the title text implies that not only did Cueball rely on 4chan for advice, their advice is why he got into this situation in the first place. |
