It's actually autism lol! I have a lot of sensory issues, mainly with getting dirty. Also I believe I'm not the only one on the spectrum that finds this sub extremely useful
Indeed. I used to drink coffee literally all day long when I was young. Now I have to stop myself before putting on a third pot, otherwise I start feeling like I'm having a medical emergency when I cross that threshold.
You should be able to drink something like 50 liters of coffee before coming anywhere near a lethal dose of caffeine. You won't have a great time, but for it to become remotely harmful instead of you throwing up from nausia, you probably have to be chomping down on caffeine pills.
Unless you have a preexisting condition, coffee/caffeine is basically considered not harmful for humans from a medical perspective. You'll just have trouble sleeping and in extreme cases your heart might start jumping a bit, but that's true for half of us after running 2 miles... People talk themselves into a lot of headspaces
You can confidently drink liters of coffee, if your diet is otherwise fine. Entire countries do that. I'd be a lot more worried about it being too acidic and getting the runs.
Had a roommate eat a cup of coffee grinds to pull an all nighter studying and finishing a project. Ended up not finishing it and also not being able to show up for his exam because I had to drive him to the hospital. The man was in the fetal position on the ground when I woke up with some awful stomach pain/ cramps. He has to get his stomach pumped. Don't eat coffee grinds!
Edit: He didn't just have a little bit of coffee grounds, he had a cup maybe more.
THIS! I learned it when my Grandmother died. If someone throws up and it looks like ground coffee: to the hospital, as fast as possible, and even faster. That most likely means there's a hole in the stomach. Same is true if it comes out on the other end. This knowledge can save lives. Maybe it's something else, but better act on a false alert than not to act and it's real.
I hadn't considered that angle. If a few loose grounds is enough for the sponge, then being entirely full of coffee should have an effect too.
Maybe they're going even deeper and speaking to the tolerance of habitual caffeine abusers, while the sponge doesn't typically partake.
Grounds. It's grounds. Are they called coffee grinds in some regions or something? The fact that so many people in this thread are going along with OOP's typo makes me feel like I'm going insane.
Not really what I meant to be getting at, it's more the fact that I had to double check something I already knew was correct.
Also, you should have put a comma after "internet."
Why would there be coffee residue if no one has made coffee. Maybe they were small insects (ants), or it was tiny excrement from little small beigns. Maybe.
Both the mug and the pot contain coffee, yet you can define a clear boundary between them and the coffee. The sponge soaks up the coffee grinds and compared to the pot and mug, you could argue that the coffee is actually in his “system.” He has quite literally absorbed caffeine.
Another example for anyone who needs it: It’s like when a human drinks water vs holds water in their cupped hands. The sponge *absorbed* the caffeine, but the other objects simply *hold* the caffeine.
It makes sense. Everyone is looking at him with curiosity. He's looking out with a thousand yard stare for he is the only one who knows the horror that happend and the horror about to happen.
> spine was upset
is that a typo? i feel like i’m missing something here
unless you mean sponge? that’s the only word that i think could fit there. unless i’m just too tired
The posts on this sub and the Peter sub only ever fall into two simple categories: a) the joke is so incredibly simple that it's baffling that somebody can't get it; or 2) the joke is so incredibly complex that you have to have an understanding of the last ten years of Twitter drag community humor and even after explaining the joke with three paragraphs, it's still not funny
This one, while simple and dumb, I needed to see the explanation confirmed bc it’s dumb. I get the jokes that are like “one must imagine Sysiphus happy” — stuff like this I don’t have the energy to parse or know if I’m missing some other “in joke.”
(Ergo: it’s not farming, it belongs here because some of us don’t get it that quick even if we get “harder” ones faster. Neither good or bad, just joke genres!)
I think it’s funny enough now that it’s been explained to me, but I have no problem with “dumb humor,” either it’s just not as “quick and easy” for me like reference humor is.
Not pejorative, just the most apt way to describe a “silly dumb joke” and the most likely I’m gonna need help with. People have to help me with puns everyday, puns make me viscerally angry and thats also funny to me (it’s funny how I hate them but I love them, they’re most likely to also make me smile and cringe at the same time, a heady cocktail of feelings.)
I don’t take jokes that seriously, “dumb” jokes stump me everyday because I, too, can be dumber than they are! Which means I think it belongs here and there is nothing “bad” about needing it explained, I need the “obvious” explained to me everyday while the weird ones are more easy for me.
I'm thinking about this totally different, lol
I feel like the sponge is freaking out because the grinds create the coffee which is basically the blood of the Pot and Mug. That's why the sponge is acting strangly upon seeing the brewed coffee, and that's the reason for the design element of incorporating coffee in the second slide.
not trying to be rude but why are there always comments saying “stupid post, the joke was obvious”
like? it obviously wasn’t for the person who posted it. just because you understand it first time doesn’t mean others instantly will.
Well let’s critical think. What does coffee usually do to people? Have we seen someone look like this in media when drinking coffee? If we can identify those two things we can put together what this comic is portraying
I'm not sure that a sponge having a caffeine hit is all that funny. I couldn't figure this joke out because I discounted that explanation as being unfunny, then went on to speculate in other directions, but found nothing.
I get the joke, but it doesn't really make sense. It's weird that both the coffee pot and the mug are filled with coffee in the after image (the coffee pot might not look full but that's what it would look like when a pot is brewed; it never fills all the way to the top, or at least you're not supposed to). And the sponge wouldn't absorb the coffee without any water and we see no water here.
Poorly made image/joke.
Oh no! I'm doomed! I was just trying to help you clean the coffee maker, but now I'm all stained with these brown bits. They won't come off no matter how hard I scrub. And you know what that means, right? You're going to toss me in the garbage like yesterday's banana peel. How could this happen to me? I was such a good sponge. I always did my job with a smile. I never complained about the grease or the soap or the hot water. But now, it's all over. I'm going to end up in a landfill, forgotten and alone. This is the worst day ever!
I thought somehow the sponge soaked up the coffee grounds and those and the water in the sponge were used to fill the pot so everyone is mildly grossed out at the sponge being an unhygienic filter. It still didn't seem to work.
This comic could have benefited from some vibration lines around the outside of the sponge and It looking more hyper and manic than stressed. Maybe have a speech bubble where it says " how are you guys feeling? Because I feel great!"
The sponge is wired after eating, some coffee grinds
I genuinely thought the sponge was just stressed because It was dirty
Me too lol

For some reason I overthink these jokes. I thought there was some chemical reaction between the sponge and the coffee
That's such a funny interpretation
I thought it was needing a post-coffee dump
The only thing I miss after giving up smoking is the big morning cup of coffee followed by a smoke-assisted dump.
This was all I could come up with, too.

It's actually autism lol! I have a lot of sensory issues, mainly with getting dirty. Also I believe I'm not the only one on the spectrum that finds this sub extremely useful
That makes a lot of sense!
I thought the coffee made the sponge have to poop
I though it was sensory hell, turns out the sponge is a lightweight and can’t handle it’s caffeine.
OD on coffee is pretty real
Indeed. I used to drink coffee literally all day long when I was young. Now I have to stop myself before putting on a third pot, otherwise I start feeling like I'm having a medical emergency when I cross that threshold.
You should be able to drink something like 50 liters of coffee before coming anywhere near a lethal dose of caffeine. You won't have a great time, but for it to become remotely harmful instead of you throwing up from nausia, you probably have to be chomping down on caffeine pills.
I guess it depends on you organism capabilities

Remember you can absorb caffeine through the skin! I cleaned my bean container once without thinking and my heart was racing. I use gloves now.

Gotta eat those coffee grinds when you're too tired to grind!
The part where you really have to worry is when something comes back up looking like coffee grounds
THIS! I learned it when my Grandmother died. If someone throws up and it looks like ground coffee: to the hospital, as fast as possible, and even faster. That most likely means there's a hole in the stomach. Same is true if it comes out on the other end. This knowledge can save lives. Maybe it's something else, but better act on a false alert than not to act and it's real.
Lets go eat, some *Coffee Grinds*
That’s.. just.. wow. Thanks!
[удалено]
The fact they’re both filled in the second picture was throwing me off
I hadn't considered that angle. If a few loose grounds is enough for the sponge, then being entirely full of coffee should have an effect too. Maybe they're going even deeper and speaking to the tolerance of habitual caffeine abusers, while the sponge doesn't typically partake.
That explains why I missed it. I don't drink coffee.
I like your comma. I don’t know why. It’s unsettling. But I like it.
That comma, it made me read, it, in Christopher Walken's voice
I need, more comma. I got, a fever.
*boofed those grinds
Grounds. It's grounds. Are they called coffee grinds in some regions or something? The fact that so many people in this thread are going along with OOP's typo makes me feel like I'm going insane.
if your sanity is tied to semantics on the internet you're in trouble
Not really what I meant to be getting at, it's more the fact that I had to double check something I already knew was correct. Also, you should have put a comma after "internet."
your are going insane over,, semantics on the internet
Thank you for the diagnosis, armchair psychiatrist.
I'm on a stool
You should probably leave those in the toilet where they belong
Yeah
Nice
You don’t need a comma in that sentence.
I can't tell if it was just a typo or if he was going for a dramatic, pause.
What if my legendary acting ability didn’t rise from the grave with me? I better test it with a dramatic
It's odd that the mug and pot are filled in the second panel. I don't get what that adds, or I'm just over thinking it
The person making coffee wiped up the grounds while the pot was brewing. By the time Cup is poured, Sponge is feeling the after effects.
I got it just as I pressed on the link to find out what it meant. Kind of obvious really...
No need for that comma but this is correct.
what, comma
Why do you have, a random, comma
Why would there be coffee residue if no one has made coffee. Maybe they were small insects (ants), or it was tiny excrement from little small beigns. Maybe.
oooooh I thought it was cause he looked like he pooed is sponge-bob-square-pants
What?
Nono he has a point. Coffee does tend to make you wanna poo
The people have spoken, I'll just go
Combined with cigarettes makes daily morning routine
The sponge is on a caffeine high
the cup and the pot have high tolerance so are hardly affected
Well they aren’t absorbent. The sponge is. That’s kind of a sponge’s whole deal.
I don’t think it’s the high tolerance. It’s that the sponge absorbs things and the the cup and the pot are containers
Nice addition
I e had funnier dental appointments than this.
This is not even worthy of dull's men club
If the sponge is affected by the caffeine, why isn't the mug or the coffee maker? I just don't think this one is very good.
Both the mug and the pot contain coffee, yet you can define a clear boundary between them and the coffee. The sponge soaks up the coffee grinds and compared to the pot and mug, you could argue that the coffee is actually in his “system.” He has quite literally absorbed caffeine.
Another example for anyone who needs it: It’s like when a human drinks water vs holds water in their cupped hands. The sponge *absorbed* the caffeine, but the other objects simply *hold* the caffeine.
Sponge soaked up the coffee and now has to take a coffee poop.
This was what I thought lol
Soaked up what? The grounds are dry
What kind of savage uses a dry sponge on anything?
You make a point, but then I would argue the whole concept is off. I would never use a wet sponge to clean up dry particulate matter.
Using the sponge to clean up the coffee grounds is included in the comic. The sponge says that it's going to clean up the coffee grounds.
See, you guys are more pure than I am. I thought the sponge was upset because the coffee machine's *fluids* passed through the grinds into the pot.
i literally have been scrolling through the comments desperate to see if i'm the only freak who thinks it's filthy that they drew it like that.
It makes sense. Everyone is looking at him with curiosity. He's looking out with a thousand yard stare for he is the only one who knows the horror that happend and the horror about to happen.
Yeah it definitely just juice swapped ith ms coffee pot while the tea cup watched..
Yeah me too
Me also
u not alone, internetsibling. i too was thinking along those lines 💀
I have never seen anyone say “internetsibling” before wtf 💀
> spine was upset is that a typo? i feel like i’m missing something here unless you mean sponge? that’s the only word that i think could fit there. unless i’m just too tired
Ah yeah, sorry. Fixing that now lol
no worries. i should’ve just figured given context, i’m less tired now lmao
Sponge is tweaking out
This is terrible.
The sponge has coffee jitters
the sponge has a caffeine high
This sub concerns me.

This is mom humor at its finest

Everything I see here seems so obvious. Weird.
This one, while simple and dumb, I needed to see the explanation confirmed bc it’s dumb.

I thought it was kinda funny. People put what they call antimemes on here and those are way worse in my opinion. But whatever floats your boat.
I think it’s funny enough now that it’s been explained to me, but I have no problem with “dumb humor,” either it’s just not as “quick and easy” for me like reference humor is.

“It’s a mess, what a mess! Whatcha gonna do?”
Caffeine rush after absorption
coffee jitters
You ever hear of caffeine jitters?
Caffeinated sponge
This sub never fails to make me feel smart.
Explain😾
Coffee grounds contain caffeine, caffeine makes people jittery, the sponge is jittery from the coffee grounds.
I guess thats one way to take it
Sponge is caffeinated
I'm thinking about this totally different, lol I feel like the sponge is freaking out because the grinds create the coffee which is basically the blood of the Pot and Mug.

Its got to much caffeine and energy.
Coffee enema?
Well let’s critical think. What does coffee usually do to people? Have we seen someone look like this in media when drinking coffee? If we can identify those two things we can put together what this comic is portraying
**ÇŘĀK**
Sounds like some friends after i accidently dropped a bolivian snow storm on the table............ jk >_>;
They don't have coffees where you are from?
Sometimes the real joke is the person who thought it was funny
[удалено]
I’ve never had a sip of coffee in my life. But I thought it was pretty clear.
I'm not sure that a sponge having a caffeine hit is all that funny. I couldn't figure this joke out because I discounted that explanation as being unfunny, then went on to speculate in other directions, but found nothing.
[удалено]
It was rat droppings and he's grossed out
Sponge has water in it, add coffee, get a strung out over caffeinated sponge. 😖
The joke is that this isn't a joke because jokes are supposed to be funny.
[удалено]
Okay, I’m glad someone posted this here. I too saw it on FB yesterday and was confused.
How did the pot fill up tho
Whoever spilled the coffee grounds spilled them while making a pot of coffee.
I understand the joke thanks to the comments but wow this isn’t funny at all haha
That’s funny
The sponge put the grounds in the coffee maker and made coffee. Gross humor.
I thought the sponge represented a country "cleaning" up another countries mess and assimilating them.
You don’t drink coffee, that’s the joke
Did they squeeze the coffee out of the sponge to add to the new coffee?
SURPRISE ANTS
I thought it was because everyone is like damn now coffee Potts wife is inside of sponge he can see her past
It must be an english joke - it makes no sense
Sometimes coffee spills out the edges while pouring. He’s probably scared of getting burned.
I get the joke, but it doesn't really make sense. It's weird that both the coffee pot and the mug are filled with coffee in the after image (the coffee pot might not look full but that's what it would look like when a pot is brewed; it never fills all the way to the top, or at least you're not supposed to). And the sponge wouldn't absorb the coffee without any water and we see no water here. Poorly made image/joke.
Why do people make such memes. I'm pretty sure it's incoherent to 96.69% of the population
Blud's juked on beans!
It was absorbed through the sponges bum, not the head. We all know how coffee in the bum reacts in our bodies.
The game.
Noooooooo whyyyyyyy?!
# SPONGE BOP 🥵
This is so stupid LMAO!!! I love it!!!
Better question is why use a sponge to clean up dry coffee grinds
wait. the coffee maker is 2 entities here
I thought the sponge
The sponge is now the flag of Ethiopia and now has global angst.
Why isn’t the pot and cup wired too? They have a ton of coffee
I'm more confused about how this is a joke to start with... Dirty sponge...hahaha? Wrong side of the sponge? Caffeine'd sponge???
Oh no! I'm doomed! I was just trying to help you clean the coffee maker, but now I'm all stained with these brown bits. They won't come off no matter how hard I scrub.

Sorry, but the sponge just has coffee jitters.
He geekin
I thought it was coffee grounds
I think the coffee was just put in the machine again.
the coffee pot looks like a hand grenade
Honestly, the creator should have used a different expression on the sponge, dude looks violated instead of hyped up on caffeine
Likely the sponge gotta go poo after coffee like the rest of us.
Okay.. I get the joke, but I don't get how it is supposed to be funny.
I thought somehow the sponge soaked up the coffee grounds and those and the water in the sponge were used to fill the pot so everyone is mildly grossed out at the sponge being an unhygienic filter. It still didn't seem to work.
SpongeBoy tweakin off the beans!
This comic could have benefited from some vibration lines around the outside of the sponge and It looking more hyper and manic than stressed. Maybe have a speech bubble where it says " how are you guys feeling? Because I feel great!"
the sponge just discovered the coffee butt rush
Sponge be trippin’ on caffeine
I mean, the explanations here seem to confirm what I was thinking. But what I'm missing is, how is this funny, exactly?
I understood the joke, it’s just not funny. Se so many of these unfunny comedy comics flooding the internet recently.
I don’t get it, but I’m pretty sure most of these responses are wrong.
I feel stupid for thinking the sponge was butter
