I was very sad when I read about the comic in question. I never read the webcomic, so I don't know the context, but I don't find anything funny about losing a baby, even if it wasn't conveyed in the best way (and especially is based off of the author's actual experience). However, I wasn't trying to comment on the actual comment, just explain what this post was about.

So apparently @jasonmon is messing with us and giving us hints without us even knowing. As far as I can figure out, this is some kind of "Loss meme" - meaning that there once was a comic that people started making fun of which then became represented as "l ll ll l_" for some reason and then even more abstractly like in this post. So essentially this meme references the symbols "l ll ll l_" which references the original comic. I think. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/loss

Sorry to interrupt your publicly private conversation, but can you share the recipes here so I can see them too?

Well that looks like a peppermint patty (candy) and nothing like a thicker version of the Girl Scout Thin Mints (cookies) anyway.

Yupp.

This made me think of 3 parts of Hamilton the musical:
.
From the song Right Hand Man:
"We are outgunned (what?)
Outmanned (what?)
Outnumbered
Outplanned"
.
From the song Stay Alive:
"Congress writes, George, attack the British forces
I shoot back, we have resorted to eating our horses
...
Alex, listen, there's only one way for us to win this
Provoke outrage
Outright
That's right
Don't engage, strike by night
Remain relentless 'til their troops take flight
Make it impossible to justify the cost of the fight
Outrun
Outrun
Outlast
Outlast
Hit 'em quick, get out fast"
.
From the song Yorktown (the world turned upside down):
"Take the bullets out your gun! (What?)
The bullets out your gun! (What?)
We move undercover and we move as one
Through the night, we have one shot to live
Another day
We cannot let a stray gunshot give us away"

Maybe I have this backwards, but wasn't the negotiation that they'd move it from NY down to VA area?

Maybe not dying, but changing...into something cringy/sad.

The Christian version of The Onion...The Christian Onion?

Lot's of people probably know the song "Anything you can do, I can do better!" but don't realize it's Annie Oakley singing it (in the musical).

We don't have a physical body for all historical figures. And the Bible isn't 1 "story." It's a collection of documents from different people. And there are documents outside of the Bible and Christianity (e.g. Jewish and Roman documents) that also document Jesus' existence. The debate isn't if he was real, it was if he was who he claimed to be.

Yeah, I definitely learned about WWI and Korea.
