This is a 4-panel edited "Amateurs" comic meme. The first panel shows two stick figures representing The Amazing Digital Circus and Deltarune fandoms arguing: the first claims their fandom is the worst, while the second dismisses this saying they have no idea what they are talking about. In the second panel, both turn in surprise to an offscreen speaker who says "AMATEURS." The third panel shows the two angry stick figures confronting the speaker, yelling "WHAT WAS THAT, PUNK?". The final panel reveals the speaker is an anthropomorphic soccer (football) ball, repeating "AMATEURS." The gag highlights that football fan culture is widely considered far more toxic, dramatic, and intense than even famously contentious online media fandoms.

This is a screenshot of a public tweet from X (formerly Twitter) user annie (@soychotic). The tweet shares a humorous, relatable trick for getting assistance with programming questions online: when the user needs help solving a programming problem, they post their question on Reddit, then sign into an alternate account to reply to their own post with an extremely incorrect answer. The poster explains that most people are not motivated to help others for no reason, but they are very eager to correct other people's mistakes, so this method works every time to get useful responses. The joke resonates with people who participate in online tech and programming communities, referencing common behavior in public help forums.

The left panel is labeled 'REDDIT USERS', showing a real, casually dressed man smiling while browsing on his mobile phone, representing casual, occasional users of the Reddit platform who do not participate deeply in site culture. The right panel is labeled 'REDDITORS', showing an edited version of Richard Watterson from *The Amazing World of Gumball* depicted as a stereotypical extremely online Reddit power user: overweight, wearing glasses and a gaming headset, with a neckbeard, representing dedicated, long-time Reddit users who are heavily embedded in the platform's inside jokes, communities and culture. The joke lies in the exaggerated, humorous distinction drawn between casual users of the site and its most active, stereotypical core userbase.

The bottom panel shows Vince with a bored, indifferent facial expression, captioned '1 month later'—illustrating the long-term feeling of apathy towards the past ban.
