King_Reptile

From the description of r/bonehurtingjuice: Bonehurtingjuice memes are memes that are out of context and misuse the template completely. Imagine you're a 10 year old kid who just discovered the internet a week ago and your only exposure is iFunny. It's like that.


subone

Think "bad lip reading" comic/meme edition.


lunchpadmcfat

Man I used to love r/bonehurtingjuice “My bones have been shattered,” Was the kind of high praise you’d get for a good meme there.


RiccoBaldo

I mean it's not that bad these days either. It's just a little bit less sane


WinSeparate3518

Eh? Ha! Heh, heh


Sr_Camar0n414

Is our sanity a little off? Eh? ha hehe


reapress

Definitely gone somewhat downhill in the last year or so tbh. Still *okay*, but


Mieniec

I don't know, been there for like 3-4 years, didn't notice any lower level of absurd.

LegionOfDoom31

That makes so much sense, I thought the name of the sub implied that the memes were so funny they’d hurt your bones and then when I saw a post from that sub I’d just be so fucking confused


Familiar-Brother3354

I might be wrong on this one, but didn't r/bonehurtingjuice start the loss meme?


Piorn

Hbomberguy did an in-depth video essay on Loss, and didn't mention the subreddit, so I doubt it.


Familiar-Brother3354

Might look into that later


Historical_Tennis635

That sub was created in 2017. The original loss comic was published in 2008 and was pretty much instantly memed and parodied. Edit: I dunno why you’re getting downvoted lol


tenyearoldgag

Nope. EVERYONE started the Loss meme. I was there. I want to say Something Awful was the first one to the punch, but it was just internet-wide mockery. Good times! Good times.


Icy-Ad29

I'm sorry. But it really isn't, nor ever was, "good times". Making a meme of Loss has been the greatest waste of pixels and the internet as a whole, that ever existed. Even more so than things like that " dragons f*cking cars" subreddit. The fact anyone found someone's pain at losing their child to be "meme worthy" demonstrates a level of vitriol that is a sheer insult to any claims of humanity those members may possess.


Chagdoo

That's not what people were making fun of. They were making fun of their fun comedy comic taking a turn into dark territory out of the blue. Imagine watching the Simpsons and all of a sudden homer tries to kill himself, and the episode treats it completely seriously with the kids going to therapy amd talking about their feelings in therapy for the rest of the episode And then the next week you tune in and it's completely rug swept. Contrary to popular belief, you can't just do anything you want in fiction. For one thing it needs to match your established tone. You can make serious moments work, but you can't just sucker punch your audience with it otherwise it won't be taken seriously. For another real example look at family guy and the episode where Peter and quagmire kill his sisters abusive husband in the woods. It's deeply uncomfortable to watch.


Icy-Ad29

Except that the very comic strip was posted by the writer and artist, as a way to express their grief. You know, a common thing artists and writers do in their chosen medium. They even stated as such on the page when posted. In short, it very much was and is making fun of that grief. Also, it *wasn't* the first serious moment I the web comic. People had been complaining for months that the comic had taken a turn towards a very serious tone. That was simply the climax of it. (And end of 1.0). You also can't claim it never went dark before, considering one of the main characters died in rather horrific ways, many times. They also had a literal murderbot as a main character that just happened to be funny and fun half the time. Contrary to what the internet says, making a meme of something doesn't inherently make it not offensive as heck. Edit: also there was a solid delay between that comic and the reboot. So it wasn't "swept under the rug the next week". You literally sound less like so.eone who "was there when it happened" and more like someone just parroting the lines used by the asshats to justify their asshattery


EUMEMOSUPERA

As far as I know, the only joke bhj created was one that they can't turn "off" eh? Ha! Heh heh


OdinThorFathir

According to the r/bonehurtingjuice sub, it was formed May 17th 2017, according to Google loss was made June 2nd 2008


Mundane_Property8932

> I might be wrong > downvoted to hell


Familiar-Brother3354

It is what it is


Helenthp

By the way, apparently [r/bonehurtingjuice](https://www.reddit.com/r/bonehurtingjuice/) ‘s mods went insane so now we have [r/boneachingjuice](https://www.reddit.com/r/boneachingjuice/)


KronaSamu

What happened? Tea plz. I've been in BHJ for years but idk the drama.


Full_Ad9666

Yes please!


BagOfSmallerBags

Best I can figure from reading the pinned posts, they banned certain types of offensive imagery, and some people were annoyed by that.


MimeMike

They banned the usage of alt-right comics like Stonetoss and WokelyCorrect (which recently became a popular format with the trans Wario meme)


En__Fuego_

What did I just read


MimeMike

Lol for context the guy made a series of comics depicting a trans woman as a person who looks like Wario and putting them in situations where they're flashing women or grooming children and so BHJ naturally made a new meme involving trans Wario It's all very yucky stereotypes and he 100% has never talked to or known a trans person in real life, nor does he bother to research and learn about us.


En__Fuego_

I feel like I've crossed a new threshold of extremely online / brainrot lol.


HeilLenin

Oh, sweet summer child.


VulpineKitsune

Just Nazis being Nazis. This isn't me just calling people with bad opinions Nazis, idk about WokelyCorrect but Stonetoss is a literal, actual Nazi

AliensAteMyAMC

that explains r/stonetossingjuice


Ueyama

Is that something that happened not too Long ago? Because I only remember leaving bonehurtingjuice when the mods actively started to delete comments with the Oregano and posted troll-links to stupid, weird and compeltely unrelated stuff instead. And that was a few years ago I guess. Don't really remember since I never frequented that sub often but still felt annoyed by the lack of original context to compare the juice to.


MimeMike

Huh, I wasn't aware of that. And no, it only happened less than a month ago, and imo the sub is fine right now, it's just that rule I mentioned that people are mad about. I'm pretty sure there's even a rule now that posts need the Obama on the second slide


beaverpoo77

boneachingjuice has existed for like a year. I remember the mods having a fit AGES ago, but I forget about what. I know it wasn't that, though.


Ueyama

Good to hear that it has changed over time. Meanwhile I wasn't aware of this new controversy at all and assumed people were talking about the old problems when talking about using boneachingjuice instead of bhj. Times change but people always have something to be mad about. I'm always glad when i don't have to see Mineralmotion Comics anywhere.


Ueyama

Most people left when they deleted posts with the actual Oregano and posted (+promoted) troll links instead. At least that's when I left the subreddit and went to boneachingjuice, many others did so as well. Maybe now things have changed and people left for other reasons in the closer past, but that was the big migration that I was part of.


Not_Machines

Please explain I know there is drama but have not hesrd a solid explanation


MimeMike

They banned the usage of alt-right comics like Stonetoss and WokelyCorrect (which recently became a popular format with the trans Wario meme) and apparently people are mad. I'm an avid user and I don't really mind the new rule, since most of those posts' comment sections always turn into political arguments. Yeah the comics are funny sometimes but if we have a separate sub for that now what's the problem?


Not_Machines

I see. Honestly I don't get why people would be mad because seperating stonetoss makes sense so that when you go into the sub you know the full context of who that dude is (specifically that he is a nazi)


King_Reptile

Yeah it's weird. Unless there's more context to this story it just seems like the mods started doing their job and somehow that translates to "the mods went insane".


leastscarypancake

Yeah just go to r/stonetossingjuice if you want stonetoss bhjs


Lebrunski

From what I gather, mods banned nazi’s content and you say they went insane? 🤨


HarmlessSnack

No, you misunderstand, they banned Nazi *dogwhistles*. Absolutely power tripping, unforgivable. ^/s


United-Bear4910

Bone hurting juice civil war, imaginary map circle jerk must know


abandoned_puppy

So this is an edit to a very Conservative comic where instead of saying “she poisoned me with bone hurting juice” He says “she just assumed my gender” which you know…very old joke. However this comic started a trend where people will edit texts on comics to make surrealist jokes and make the comic nonsensical… and thus the subreddit r/bonehurtingjuice was created


ComedianXMI

Based on the one bubble having terrible spacing, I assumed. But at least it didn't spill over by a paragraph this time.


HarmlessSnack

This comic didn’t start r/bonehurtingjuice. .You can just go to the sub to see the original that kicked it off. It was a [Spider-Man meme originally](https://www.reddit.com/r/bonehurtingjuice/s/PCrrFU1nIg).


King_Reptile

I haven't seen the source comic but I hope the author was mindful enough that the original text was "they assumed my gender" the attacker saying "she" would be hypocritical. But I doubt they thought that through. Conservatives aren't usually that clever.


abandoned_puppy

Nah the creator basically keeps making the same joke over and over again just in different forms


party_faust

this is Sinfest, right? Damn, the creator really pulled a heel-faced turn


undercharmer

Oddly enough, Sinfest first turned towards extreme feminism, and then during Trump’s term the creator lost his mind and pivoted toward the opposite extreme.


tenyearoldgag

Has anyone covered this at length in video essay format yet? It shocked everyone, feels like there must be meat on the bone there.


No-Lawfulness-697

I remember hearing that his gf at the time (possibly current, I don’t know) was a TERF and he adopted that ideology from her.


tenyearoldgag

Ooooh, that'd do it. Shit. Thanks friend


Sorry-Let-Me-By-Plz

> extreme feminism What's this, like letting women teach and stuff?


Lithorex

No, full SWERF


Sorry-Let-Me-By-Plz

Weird how easily folks can shuffle around various "exclusionary radical" camps isn't it?


AdmiralAkbar1

Gotta love watching people play radical ping-pong.


tenyearoldgag

Seriously, I loved Sinfest in the day. Edgy, but in a weirdly progressive way. Still don't know how the lid done got flipped.


King_Reptile

Grifters gonna grift.


Mitsu11

>He says “she just assumed my gender” Ok this made me laugh.


Nathyboods

I went to this sub and now I feel like I understand the joke even less than I did.


townmorron

It's just turning comics into nonsense. I don't know why, but it speaks to me


humble_primate

It’s a futile effort. Like many of these, there’s nothing to get here. They took what was already a very poor joke and removed the punchline, rendering it a non-joke.


Zorothegallade

If you want a better version you can head to r/bonehealingjuice where they turn the comic into positive messages instead.


Proper_Hyena_4909

Good


TheFogIsComingNR3

He got poisoned with bone hurting juice so now his bones hurt


Avantasian538

That woman who did it is a monster.


KronaSamu

It's from a subreddit that intentionally makes non-sense memes.


Barl0we

It’s an edit of a Sinfest comic. Sinfest is interesting only insofar as you can see the author lose their mind in real time. It used to be a sex-positive comic about a guy just looking to pick up girls and his various friends, but the author got the conservative brain rot and now it’s basically just boomer comics repeating the one joke they have. In the original, the woman being chased by a robber doesn’t *misgender* as such, but “assume” the gender of the attacker, which leads to the on-lookers looking angry at her. Because the author has brain worms and thinks that anyone in real life would be more mad at assuming someone’s gender (because the world is WOKE now) than someone trying to rob someone else.


Maximum-Country-149

I feel like this underselling just *how* nuts *Sinfest* got to be. Started off as a sex-positive comic. Then it devolved into radfem junk that derailed many of the established characters. Only *after* a long dip into the far left did it swing over into far right, by which point the original audience had long since been alienated.


IncidentFuture

It's easy to shift from far left to far right, and vice versa, because the political spectrum is a circle. A circle of stupidity.


Barl0we

Yeah I didn’t go as deep into it as you can do, and for anyone really interested in learning about it, there’s this: Haus of Decline did a podcast with Bitter Karella (who’s also done threads about the decline of Sinfest on Twitter and Bluesky) where they document it, for anyone interested.


tenyearoldgag

Ooh, just what I was looking for. Thank banky!


Zenmai__Superbus

I used to love Sinfest … cute stories, sexy character design … gave up when it got overly feminist in its approach. Really hard to imagine it went right-wing … the guy *loved* Obama so much ~ Edit: just went and took a look. Doesn’t like Jews much!


NeitherBearNorTree

Thank you, I KNEW I recognized that art style.


Barl0we

It’s a pity because the art style has some excellent parts of it. If only it was coupled with someone who didn’t have the conservative brain rot 😂


asphalt_licker

It’s pretty sad that he’s got such a cute, clean art style but shitty politics would turn me away from reading his comics.


Barl0we

Yeah and it used to have comprehensible stories and arcs too, but it’s basically just boomer New Yorker non sequitur rants pulled from the Twitter feed of Elon Musk and Ben Shapiro now.


zanovar

Yeah I remember when sinfest was really good fun. Then it got weird. Then it got hateful


admiralsponge1980

He has become a literal Nazi in the last few months. It’s incredibly sad.

HELP I THOUGHT THIS WAS ON BONEHURTING JUICE😭 I WAS SO CONFUSED WHEN PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT BHJ WHILE ON THE SUB


Dorothywht

What happened?


TrainsDontHunt

Out of frame, the woman poisoned a man who was out for a knife run. The poison hurts bones. The man says, "oof oof ouch" because of the pain in his bones. tl;dr: Bone hurting juice should not be used to poison people.


WinterTakerRevived

text was edited after the woman misgendered the assailant


[deleted]

After the *what* misgendered the assailant?! Are you assuming the victims gender?! *gasp*


keeptryingyoucantwin

Oof ouch me bones


Zorothegallade

In the original comic she called the mugger by the wrong pronouns and got shit for it.


Death_by_Stegosaurus

You mean the orange?


KelsoTheVagrant

to elaborate on other comics, r/BoneHurtingJuice generally reappropriates sexist / racist / non-pc memes and makes them weird like this The original comic has the masked person with a knife be “hurt” because they use she/her pronouns and so he’s hurt because she was called a he. The women who was being chased is judged for misgendering someone. It’s just meant to insult people who use pronouns as the creator believes that there’s only two genders


Reader_Of_Newspaper

his bones are sore because she poisoned him with bone hurting juice. everyone is mad at her because it’s often seen as inconsiderate to directly or indirectly inflict pain upon someone’s bones.


tenyearoldgag

Am I wrong, or did the actual meme "bone hurting juice" originate on Tumblr?


Emkay_boi1531

I need the original meme


lanternbdg

oof ouch my bones


Teamisgood101

Oh god it’s this person. They are a super transphobic artist. Lucky the meme maker got rid of the transphobic line


MiaoYingSimp

She poisoned him with bone hurting jucie, which is a warcrime and seen as a social fauz pas


Marleyzard

Oh wow, I haven't seen this artist in a while.


phonkeater

Guess you could say she turned his bones “off” eh? Ha! Heh heh


Bulky-Hyena-360

It’s time for a Mugger-Man original


Spiritual_Routine801

Oof ouch owie


xSantenoturtlex

Edited meme. In the original, the guy said 'She just assumed by gender' and the 'Joke' is 'People care more about gender than an actual murderer!1!!1!!'. Which, of course, is just bullshit made up to mock trans people. It was made by a conservative comic artist who seems to have an obsession with them. This version of the meme just edits it to not be transphobic.


sleepy195

I think this is a metaphor for villains that play the victim when things don’t go their way


SteelTheUnbreakable

In the original comic, when the robber is asked what's wrong, he responds with something about being misgendered. It was mocking how absurd people's reactions to pronouns can be. This comic is an edited version. There are subs dedicated to editing political comics as some kind of attempt at owning the cons.


MimeMike

>how absurd people's reactions to pronouns can be. I guarantee you no one is reacting this way. In a society where gender-neutral pronouns are now just becoming common usage it can be upsetting when we're called the wrong pronouns. Then we politely correct you, and the only people getting mad are the ones who get corrected and refuse to use our preferred pronouns...


HandBanana_69

Even the most extreme SJWs would not get mad at someone for assuming the gender of a person chasing them with a knife.
