Every single one of them look like their eyes are about to roll right out of their heads.

I mean, at most meetings I shift between holding back rolling my eyes, and forcing them open so I don’t fall asleep.

Generally I do agree with that statement. But I think this can be taken in a lighthearted manner. Not every joke needs to be so PC to the point where you’re afraid to say anything and all humor is lost. Humor is subjective tho so I think it’s fair to not like the joke.

Literally just a person talking in a group to other people. How is this a science meme?

When you work at a university the marketing department is always a meme.

When I was in college, the science department was a group of people at a table going, “Hey nerd! I bet you like computers, don’t you?”

And I did and I walked over.

Fuuuuck, they cover the walls of our science buildings with those now. It’s like, how much are you spending on this shit, but you can’t fix the fucking HVAC in the building?

It’s mainly funny, because all the women look bored out of their mind. It makes it look like they’re letting Greg blather on, even though none of his points are novel to them. And Greg has such a massive ego that he doesn’t notice no one is listening to him.

Obviously, yes, Greg probably is just a person without ego talking normally. But him being the only dude in the picture and the only one talking, the mansplaining interpretation is a little too close for comfort, which makes it funny.

That’s just how people look in most academic conversations.

The picture seems to be from Australia, I’m from Germany, so uh, no idea about the USA. 🙃

And yes, that can be a normal situation, but if we recognize that it’s a joke, we can still see the resemblance and find that humorous.

It looks to me like the back of his chair. Ghost arm is much more entertaining, though.
