- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

I call it swallowing a square because that's what it feels like to me.
You mean "cube"?
Expecting that everyone else exists in the third dimension is kinda ableist tbh.
Ha! It do be facts, tho.
Swallowing a cube doesn't have quite the same ring to it as swallowing a square though!
There is a certain flow to it, certainly. 🤣
Me too from this moment on. You've described it perfectly.
Oh man! I'd love it if there was a translation from German, Hungarian, Japanese, or the like that had this description for this. You nailed it.
German: Quadrat verschluckt Haitian Creole: vale yon kare Hawaiian: ale i ka huinaha Hungarian: nyelt egy négyzetet Icelandic : gleypti ferning Japanese: 四角を飲み込んだ (Shikaku o nomikonda) Scottish Gaelic : shluig e cearnag Ukranian: проковтнув квадрат (prokovtnuv kvadrat)
FWIW 🤷🏼♂️🤓
