That woke agenda is going way too far. Poor mutt.

I feel like those kids are potentially buying their own kids devices by now

iPad came out in 2010. That was 15 years ago. That girl is like 10. That boy is like 14

Potentially? They're in their 30s probably

Those Apple devices are circa 2010, so I’ve got bad news regarding the dog.

[–] bdonvr 12 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I mean, maybe it's not out of the question that the dog could still be around. Most dogs get neutered young too. 16-18 years old is definitely an old dog but not unheard of for a small breed. Jack Russells are no slouch for longevity.

But yeah almost certainly they are gone

This however is completely ignoring the fact that the dog was photoshopped in and could be from really any time

They can't afford a house, you mean?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Meh, this was maybe 15 years ago. I would bet on not quite 30 yet.

[–] bdonvr 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The girl maybe. The boy is probably at least 30 tho

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He doesn’t look 16 to me. The OG iPad was available in the States 15 years ago this month and Europe 15 years ago next month.

Even assuming this is as early as Christmas 2010 I would argue he is 29 today or maybe just turned 30.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Being the exact age you're talking about and vividly remembering that time: we don't have enough pixels to tell if he's 12 or 17, honestly

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You seem to be arguing the same point I am from a different perspective; he would have to be at least 16 to be “at least 30” as the other commenter said. I am also arguing against precluding several years of age that the boy in the photo could be all of which would result in him being less than 30 today.

You two sound like my siblings during a long car ride. Just arguing over the dumbest shit that doesn't matter...

Besides, even if they're in their twenties, they're old enough to buy their own shit! :P

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

That means they can have children and buy them devices - but it doesn't happen automatically when you're in your 30s, so - potentially?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

What is the association between the kids getting devices and the dog losing his balls?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago

The original is iPad/iPod/iPaid, then someone added iPeed to the dog (and farded and shidded and camed), then comes this version that changes iPeed to something completely unrelated

U did what?!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

This is giving me nostalgic shock. I remember when that device came out where I was, lol. I feel so old.

Given the age of this meme, the dog is probably already dead
