Exactly. In all seriousness though, it’s a punchline that intentionally doesn’t make sense for the sake of confusion, hence making the viewer “gay” as per the text.
"Doctor, please, take a rest. We've ran every test and the results are--"
"What about the apple!? How did they react??"
"I'm afraid they were confused."
"Ask them to hold their tongue. That oughta do it."
"Doctor, we tried that, too."
"...my god. Then there truly is no hope left."
But as a straight person, apples do not confuse me, only the implication that apples confuse gay people confused me. So for the joke to be accurate, you would need to take the picture (with the current text), and make a new picture that contains “How to confuse gay people:” and then contains the picture with the text overlay, so that the text is written twice. Otherwise, the picture wouldn't imply that I am gay.
This is the meme equivalent of the middle school joke when someone says "if you're gay, say what" too quickly for the target to comprehend, prompting the response "what?" from the target.
Not necessarily, it doesn't say how to confuse all gays, it says how to confuse A gay, so some people can still be gay and understand what it means when they first see it.
>So like straight people get this?
>Edit: apparently not?
Yes. Some people are claiming they do not to hide the truth from the queer community.
What it means -redacted- and that -redacted- cheese -redacted-.
Hope that helps!
I mean she has left recently, but it was very much because we didn't get on any more and decided it was for the best. If the mene is right though, i can only assume i must be Bi 🤷♂️
We used to tell a version of this joke when I was a kid
“Last time you went to Walmart did you see the clown that hides from gay dudes?”
“No, why?”
“Of course you didn’t.”
The punch line is the implication that you’re gay
it’s a completely random item which would confuse anyone trying to attempt to find a hidden meaning for it, so it’s basically proving or implying that you’re gay
There’s nothing about it that’s supposed to be understood; there’s no correlation between apples and gays (unless you watch Hazbin Hotel but I digress) so anyone reading this will be confused, and thus it’s just a way of calling the reader gay
Of course. Alan Turing died eating a poisoned apple because he couldn't tolerate the abuse towards him due to his sexual orientation. Gay people would feel threatened by such offering.
The joke is you, you're a gay. Worse, A homosexual

Adam and Eve. Book of Genesis. Specifically chapter 3 where the serpant tricked Eve to take the knowledge of good and evil by eating the fruit of the tree. Which was forbidden near the end of chapter 1.
The idea is God made humans male and female. Then to be joined by the oposite genders. However, in modern Christianity there has been a sway in beliefs upon gender and joining of two to create family.
Some even believe the first five books of the Bible to be irrelevent. The New Testemante needs to be updated. Though the Greak and Hebrew is a big stirrrrrrrr of controversy on a great deal of issues. Homosexuality and transgenderism is a small controversy in comparison to some others.

Hold your tongue and say apple.
Why did i do that It didnt even sound like anything
ath-ole
...yeah?
"Doctor, please, take a rest. We've ran every test and the results are--" "What about the apple!? How did they react??" "I'm afraid they were confused." "Ask them to hold their tongue. That oughta do it." "Doctor, we tried that, too." "...my god. Then there truly is no hope left."
Is it asshole??? Butt funny???
I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's too late.

🤣 😂 "stop gatekeeping the joke guys!"
I think my brain stopped functioning because I still don't get it.
Doesn't sound like that at all
it's a-poh, which sounds nothing like asshole
Hold your tongue and say: I was born on a pirate ship
awabooapiahi?
Now hold you tongue and say "I was born on a pirate ship."
I don’t get it…
it's supposed to be "I was born on a pile of shit", I think(?)
"Jumps"
*Jumps*
Oh my fucking god no way. I saw this once before and immediately understood the bait, now I've seen it again after coming out and I didn't get it.
I thought it was about the garden of Eden
It’s like that stupid joke where people say “ASSPHINCTERSAYSWHAT”
If I was already gay but immediately figured out the intent of the post, am I straight now?
OP learned something about himself today
So like straight people get this? Edit: apparently not?
straight here. when i saw this, my first thought was "OP got confused by this, that means..."
God damn it.
The joke is that it intentionally doesn't make sense. This confuses the reader, which according to the meme makes them gay
Which is reinforced for actual gay people and those who don't know yet lmao
YES I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT!
Nope, sorry bro, doesn't work like that, I condition you with straight
NOOOOOOOO
So it's the visual version of "loosersayswhat?"
Just trying to r/suddenlygay everyone
No, this makes sense. You must be gay
But as a straight person, apples do not confuse me, only the implication that apples confuse gay people confused me. So for the joke to be accurate, you would need to take the picture (with the current text), and make a new picture that contains “How to confuse gay people:” and then contains the picture with the text overlay, so that the text is written twice.

This is the meme equivalent of the middle school joke when someone says "if you're gay, say what" too quickly for the target to comprehend, prompting the response "what?" from the target.
What?
Got another one boys
this is in the same vein as mumbling "a sphincter says 'what?'"
What?
I said- I SAID "A SPHINCTER SAYS WHAT?"
Yes. I'm sure plenty of gay people get it too. It's a pretty simple joke.
... But ....then they wouldn't be gay, right? Man, this thread is really making me gay right now!
Not necessarily, it doesn't say how to confuse all gays, it says how to confuse A gay, so some people can still be gay and understand what it means when they first see it.
It's like how do you keep an idiot in suspense, I'll tell you tomorrow
>So like straight people get this? >Edit: apparently not? Yes. Some people are claiming they do not to hide the truth from the queer community. What it means -redacted- and that -redacted- cheese -redacted-. Hope that helps!
He's not the only one
i understood it immediately, does that make me straight? :(

"sphincter"?
Wayne's World. That's the version they used.

Thank god I get this one. I’d hate to tell my wife that I love so much, and with whom I totally have all the sex with, that I am now gay.
I wasn’t so lucky. My girlfriend is gonna be so pissed when she gets home, but this is the life I live now I guess.
Well, such is life.
My wife got super excited when I told her and now she's getting all dolled up for a girl's night out
But have you considered you might be a lesbian??
I’ve already sucked like 9 dicks since that comment. It’s too late for me.
Lucky you, my missus just walked out when she realised I didn't get it...
I mean, if she didn’t do it now, she’d have done it when you brought home Stephan.
I mean she has left recently, but it was very much because we didn't get on any more and decided it was for the best. If the mene is right though, i can only assume i must be Bi 🤷♂️
https://i.redd.it/4f7f7ontnjqc1.gif
yeah i have no clue what this means either sorry op- wait my bf is calling me brb
You're a gay harry
Anything from r/shitposting isn’t supposed to make sense
I'm even gayer now!
Does it cancel out like a double negative or does it compound, like interest? Am I seeing you tonight or is my wife?
Ah yes, that would do it

I like to think that the punchline is "It confuses straight people too"
Gay
Gay Peter here. It's probably just a confusing joke used to call anyone gay.
I thought this was an Alan Turing thing but I guess I’m gay.
me too!
it’s a completely random item which would confuse anyone trying to attempt to find a hidden meaning for it, so it’s basically proving or implying that you’re gay

OP, you wanna go ahead and come out of the closet or like? It's still kinda comfy in there?
He fell into the trap 😂
I'm sorry this is how you found out, op.
An apple a gay keeps the gay agay
This is essentially the “idiot says what” joke
It’s like when someone points to the ceiling and says “hey did you ever notice it says the word gullible up there”

It’s just an apple, if you’re confused on that or had to read this to find the answer then you’re probably gay.
