1 way trip
Dialogue
Overview
This is a 3-row, 2-column comic meme. On the left side of each row, a conservative Muslim couple (a man in a traditional white Islamic cap, a woman wearing a full black niqab, both wearing glasses) are shown angrily yelling and pointing at the couple on the right side. The right side features a bearded white man and a pale goth/alternative style woman wearing a choker. The dialogue proceeds as follows: 1) Left: 'You're going to hell' / Right: 'What's in hell?'; 2) Left: 'People like you' / Right: 'What's in heaven?'; 3) Left: 'People like me' / Right: 'You need to work on your threats'. The joke comes from the threat backfiring: the alt couple would far prefer to spend eternity in hell with people like themselves, rather than in heaven with the conservative religious couple condemning them, so the intended insult has the opposite effect.
Origin notes
This meme was sourced from an RSS feed of 9Gag content, with the original submitted title '1 way trip'. It is an original user-created digital comic meme poking fun at ineffective religious condemnation threats and the clash between conservative religious values and modern alternative/counterculture identities.
