#Urgh that sonic comic that’s like…about messy poor lefty gays lives!!!

Has anyone articulated a name for that particular genre of online work that takes easily recognisable pop culture characters and remixes them into something profound and absurd at the same time. Like stuff like Mr Boop, Shag and Scoob, that one comic about Bobby KingoftheHill giving marriage counselling to Bart Simpson and that Family Guy lad. Like it’s definitely fanfic adjacent but it’s also so different. There’s something here but idk someone smarter than me work it out.

#clefairy squeaks #Something about taking pop culture stock characters that are inherently from work where nothing can ever change #Where they can only ever be afforded a limited amount of depth #And pulling them together in a way that is visually absurd and funny until it’s NOT #Like using that Trojan horse of absurdity to pull people in until you crack the irony barrier and whoops people are feeling things now #About Neo and Morpheus holding hands in bed #Urgh that sonic comic that’s like…about messy poor lefty gays lives!!! #I can NEVER refind it when I want it but it whips and belongs here
