i don't get what the guy in the middle panel is there for, standing on the dome of the rock. if it's funny, i don't get the reference, can someone enlighten me.

oh and that speaker icon is annoying in the bottom right of the lower panel.

i decided to repair the meme by removing these two elements, and then adding alt text. enjoy.

a three panel meme, with depictions of the middle east. panel 1 says "born too late to deploy to the middle east". panel 2 says "born too early to deploy to the middle east". panel 3 says "born just in time to deploy to the middle east".

    In the Benedict Cumberbatch remake set in the 21st century, Dr. Watson is also hurt in the Afghan War.

    How mad it must be to be Afghani, people from everywhere constantly invading.
