Everything sure got weirder after that from my perspective
David Cameron had sex with a pig.

damn that’s good, where can I listen to this way better version of billy “cracker prime” joel’s song?
George Lucas sells out
Dinosaurs run about
Big man gets small
Hairy man can’t make withdrawals
Rat pizza subway
Furiosa got away
Arguing over a dress
30 written state addresses
Matt Damon escapes from Mars
Venom Snake avenges scars
(Chorus)
Left shark, je suis charlie, black panther… Lots of bangers in this one
so the funny lil yellow things in the overalls and goggles are called minions
Reminds me of the Onion article after 9/11 “America longs to care about stupid shit again”
a few off the top of my head from being alive and a fully-fledged adult in 2015:
- Mad Max (2015)
- Je Suis Charlie is Charlie Hebdo which was big in the news then because they did some anti-islamic shit and got shot over it
- left shark and deflate gate in the bottom right (superbowl stuff)
- Greece was going through some economic shit (my ex went to an ivy and she and some of her classmates made a lot of jokes about “we could just buy it” bc their endowment was larger than its gdp and bc they’re ghouls in training)
- BLM blew up pretty big following the extrajudicial murder of michael brown in 2014
- last hunger games movie came out (that’s katniss on the t-rex)
- jurassic park reboots started in 2015
- memerican aparral is referencing “the dress” that tore the internet apart bc people couldn’t decide what colors it was (wiki)
- netflix paid a ton of money for Friends (see the laptop in the bottom right) and that was a huge deal
- free snow next to the guy in the celts jersey and sox hat is reference to boston’s snowmageddon 2k15
a few more:
- cecil the lion
- one direction broke up
- oberfell v hodges decision for marriage equality
- pizzagate
- catelyn jenner coming out (or vanity fair cover at least)
- to kill a mockingbird sequel
- kermet and miss piggy divorce
- royals won the world series
- game of thrones at its peak, jon snow stabbed to death (spoiler: he got better)
- starbucks holiday cup controversy (they just made them red, christofascits treatlers got mad)
- star wars sequel trilogy started
- google created parent company “alphabet” for antitrust reasons
In front you have Letterman handing the Late Show over to Colbert
Don’t forget
’s “Hideo Kojima Game” MGS5 came out (hence snake chilling on the right side)
Also the cooling tower with an Iranian flag is a reference to the Iran nuclear deal.
What a waste of ten years
“We didn’t start the fire,” in picture form.
Leonard Nimoy died that year
No Waldo?
It’s mostly movie and sports references.
And the “RIP Grantland” makes me think this is Bill Simmons related, maybe even published by Grantland itself (American sports/pop culture website started by Simmons when he worked for ESPN).
Edit: I’ve just seen the credit at the bottom of the poster. Guess it’s not related, just made by a fan I guess.
Why is the one woman who’s flashing her breasts censored and the other, who is right next to her, not?
Oh fuck there are boobs.
Chat, is this NSFW?
i think that’s what the cartoon is asking (or critiquing)
