  Few people understand why I glare them after obliterating a perfectly nice patch of flowers.

    we, I thought the joke was about the common mutation where your second toe is longer than your big toe.

      I thought it was a foot fetish thing

        I thought city folk didn’t like that feeling of grass tickling your feet.

    You mean it’s not the grass poking between your toes?

      Totally what I thought.

    are people traipsing through planted lilies or what?

      Very common, at least here in California, for there to be nice blooms of flowers that people decide to obliterate so they can take pictures for social media. By the time the 80th troglodyte traipses through the flowers, they’ve ruined it for everyone else that might enjoy them - and the flowers are fucked.

      I can almost guarantee that this is the point of the comic. The only other interpretation I’ve seen that I can accept is that it’s actually about the grass between your toes, which some people dislike.

        why would they need to trample them to take photos?

  Hypothesis: the message seems to imply that the cliche nature lover needs to trample and destroy said nature to be close to it.

  This seems the most likely explanation to me.

  And I find it neither funny nor insightful.

    It’s not so much nature lovers but social media “content creators” who are criticized here.

    There was a case I read of a man caring for a beautiful patch of flowers, but then it got famous on social media and those assholes went there in buses, took pictures lying in there and destroyed it. Heartbreaking to read about that one. Sadly I can’t find that specific case anymore, but there are enough articles about the problem, like this one.

      Oh. That would explain the hashtags. I’ll edit my comment to point out yours!

      Thanks!

  I weirdly see a lot of these “yes…but…” Comics everywhere and I don’t get like 90% of them tbh.

    This is the first one I’ve seen so I guess I’m at 0%. 😭
