Communication breakdown

To be fair, that is a horrible meme format for this purpose.

I still don't know if the OP was complaining that she stops the phone from charging beyond 80% or that she insists on charging even when it's already 80% charged.
- its the latter

He has to explain the very concept of a movie to his mom now.

Mom, I know it's hard to accept but film is inevitable
- You couldn’t live with your own failure, where did that bring you? back to me. -The Phone Charger.
He also has to explain the concept of a meme.

Everyone is misunderstanding what's going on here. Mom is obviously so chill with aliens that not only does she not recognize this particular alien, but she's concerned her son went somewhere she doesn't know about with that unfamiliar alien. He needs to call her so he can tell her.

well at least she's not racist or specist even

Mine is not as loquacious

The petit pipi is very funny to me for some reason.
I also appreciate the translation of "???" for "???"
???
- Moooom, shut the door, I'm with my friends!!
Yours just goes straight to the point. Hitting you with one ?, then two ? right after, to stun you and getcha on your feet. In other words, réponse courte, mais bien xD
mdr

My mom texts exactly like this. Talks too.

A quality meme, wasted on someone completely unworthy.

Not everyone grew up consuming memes. Maybe if you call and explain it she'll understand and have a great laugh. Totally worthy then.
- Metaphors are hardly a new device. Anyone who knows how to read above an elementary school level should readily understand metaphors and similes.
- I consume plenty of memes and I still don't follow the point. far from quality when you have to know a detailed moment from a cookie cutter movie that many people don't care about.

Mom doesn’t speak meme.

This is beyond memes. This is a severe deficit of metaphorical thinking. Mom might have like undiagnosed autism
- I think that's some kind of condition other than autism.

Become unmemeable

Call her

♪A text is not enough♪

technically it's optimal for battery health if you only keep charge somewhere between 40 and 80%

Which is why my phone lies to me and 100% is actually 80%.
40% is unnecessary conservative. More like 20%.
exactly, it's the recommendations for batteries for the last 10 years or more. people doing otherwise are following "old folklore" and killing their batteries faster.
- Nah. Phones just gaslight you now.
  https://urbo.com/content/this-is-why-your-phones-battery-isnt-really-at-100-percent/
- The reality for most people is they charge their phone at night, and that's it. If the phone has a built in mechanism to stop charging at a certain percentage, you can use that, but otherwise it will just charge to 100%.
  The only other option would be to have a smart outlet, and have your phone turn off the smart outlet when it hits 80%, which is an annoyance even if you know how to do it, and virtually impossible for tech illiterate people.
  The next best thing is to make sure you aren't using a fast charger, as the heat from fast charging is arguably worse than charging it to 100%. And if it's charging over night, there is no reason for it to charge quickly.
I use a setting on my S21 that keeps the battery from going over 80 for that reason. It does seem to help, battery's still going strong while my S8's has gone completely to shit.

“Is this one of those drug things?”

Why are people like this? It has signs and context and explanation and all

Seriously. I understand there’s a generational gap, but this is laid out so fucking plainly. Like… how does she not know, at the very least, that the purple dude is not a real person
- how is it plain? what is he doing? what is on his arm? what does him fucking with his arm have to do with taking a charger when it is not needed? I have no idea and clearly plenty of other people also agree.
  this scene is not common enough knowledge to reference that people know what's happening and that makes it a poor choice for the meme.
- Maybe thinks its some performer or a statue or something. She probably didn't pay attention to all the grimmace ads so has no frame of reference of why a charger would connect to a big mac
- She could be pretending to not understand because she misses hearing her/his voice.
Purple guy confuses me
- I don't know him in that picture
- Why?
I get it from context clues, but I have no idea what’s going on in the screenshot. The only Marvel movies I’ve seen are like…. iron man 1 and uhhhh transformers? If that’s marvel.
- It could be your personal imaginary friend from childhood and it would still stand. The point of memes is that context is optional. I haven't watched American comic hero movies either. The point is that there's a character taking or holding something

So. This bugs me. Why, in fact, are mom's capable of maxing out the word count three times over but If you send two texts they forget how to speak their native language?

Showed this to my wife. She also did not understand.

Meanwhile I have my phone set to STOP charging at 80 percent. Thos I wish it did 85 and stop like my last one.

Shit like this is why I never send internet memes to my parents. Boomers don't understand them.

it's always the same

having a mental breakdown

drive me insane

Unsend! Unsend!

use meme unrelatable to someone who hasn't watched infinity war or whatever junk
act surprised your mom is oblivious or has no patience for this shit

Still got no idea what's going on with that "charger": didn't watch the movie, either. 🤷

It's just saying she plugs her phone in to charge even though it's at 80%. There's not much to it.
- Is he plugging or unplugging? Shit's unclear.

Who checked their charge level when viewing this. I'm exactly at 80 right now.

When you're born with a charger embedded in the skull but mom really needs to charge her phone.

I always keep my battery shit on the chargers

the irony is that the battery health is going to be worse that way.
It’s a good thing lithium batteries are made out of infinitely renewable smiles and laughs! Otherwise your behavior of taking the electrical equivalent of an orbital sander to your battery every day would make you so irresponsible it would make you an out of touch asshole that doesn’t care about the next generation of humans.
