    You’re right though. It’s really “your joke but worse” material, and the original joke is stupid enough that it definitely didn’t need the extra potshot at addicts added on.

    Edit: seems like I may have misunderstood. Carry on

      But… it isn’t a potshot at addicts? I’m not familiar with all of the anime women in the image, but the purple haired one, Misato from Evangelion, is all but confirmed as a functioning alcoholic within the first episode or two.

      I would assume that the other ones are as well.

      So, not a potshot, just a cringey way to shove somebody’s waifu(s) into an existing meme. And this is the shitposting community, so it was arguably done ironically.


      Also, for the record, Misato is the closest thing to “best girl” that series has. Don’t @ me. Everyone in it is fucked up, she’s just ever so slightly less so.
