TIL, all popular references are wrong tho
originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 7 months ago
youre not alone. this is a common misconception because of the catchphrase created at the time 'drinking the kool-aid'
21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 7 months ago
This is an example of it going poorly but advertisers to an extent do it on purpose. Kool-aid gets used to refer to powdered drink mixes like band-aid is used to refer to adhesive bandages and, in some regions, coke is used to refer to soda in general. The idea is to become so associated with the concept as to overshadow the competition.

“While initially gleeful at the imminent damage to his competitors’ brand, Kool-Aid Man would soon be confronted with the irony inherent in his own vast advantage in consumer mind-share.”

You’d think Jim Jones would’ve been able to afford the good stuff, but I guess cult leaders don’t make as much as I would’ve thought.
gregorum@lemm.ee 7 months ago
those bodies are some weird AI hallucination shit
XEAL@lemm.ee 7 months ago
4 legs torso
FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today 7 months ago
Yeah that’s double legs debby. Notoriously has two left feet.
HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 7 months ago
Big fan of this person, who looks like they died in the middle of birthing the three stooges…

Was this drawn by AI? Some weird shit happening with those bodies.

ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 7 months ago
Mass amounts of AI weirdness going on there…
Don’t zoom in if you want to sleep anytime soon.
MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Would be great if there were a huge MAGA flavor-aid rally.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 months ago
At this point, I wouldn’t put it past Trump to tell them all to kill themselves if he gets found guilty at his trials.
db2@lemmy.world 7 months ago
At least something would improve this stupid timeline then.
Seraph@kbin.social 7 months ago
Maybe when he dies they'll drink the Kool aid to join him.
Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
SOB_Van_Owen@lemm.ee 7 months ago
Maybe everyone should listen to the Jonestown tape at some point. It’s truly horrible, but may provide some inoculation against demagoguery.
Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 7 months ago
They were told the poison was painless so they gave it to the kids first. The tapes show that the kids were in agony and the parents were freaking out, to the point where many wanted to leave and not take the poison but they were forced to at gunpoint
mydoomlessaccount@infosec.pub 7 months ago
Oh! And be sure not to forget the part where Jim Jones then proceeded to turn his gun on himself and take the quick death instead of suffering the way he forced everyone else to.
Funny how often monsters turn out to be cowards as well. History rhymes, I guess.
frostysauce@lemmy.world 7 months ago
It is absolutely terrifying.

I am absolute sure that this image is a clear reference to Mass Suicide at Jonestown
XEAL@lemm.ee 7 months ago
What happened?
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Deconceptualist@lemm.ee 7 months ago
Huh, I’ll have to read the rest of this bizarre story. I never knew the cultists shot and killed a congressman!
Rusty@lemmy.ca 7 months ago
Horrible AI art
Son_of_dad@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Sucks for Kool aid cause they actually drank flavor aid, not Kool aid
Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Not that many keeping up with the Jonestown these days
grrgyle@slrpnk.net 7 months ago
Too soon
pb42184@lemmy.world 7 months ago
According to South Park - Jared Has Aides, it’s 22.3 years.
You’re fine
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Jim Jones and I both went to Indiana University (I also grew up in that university’s town, Bloomington), and now I live in Terre Haute, Indiana, which has the federal prison where Timothy McVeigh was executed and a school for “troubled” teens that Charles Manson once got sent to.
I can’t help it if mass murder surrounds me, right?
pb42184@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I see insufficient evidence that you are in fact the harbinger of death and destruction by your mere presence

Here’s a related song: Hungover in Jonestown by Amigo the Devil (spotify)
UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 7 months ago
DON’T DRINK IT!

YOU CAN’T TELL ME WHAT TO- *GAK*
inset@lemmy.today 7 months ago
bro, it’s never too soon
MissJinx@lemmy.world 7 months ago
That can’t be Joanestown, there are not enough kids in the picture
chiliedogg@lemmy.world 7 months ago
And it was Flavor-Aid. I don’t know how they expected to spend the money they saved buying the cheap shit.
HarbingerOfTomb@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Holy shit
Sidhean@lemmy.world 7 months ago
This picture is so cursed
Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 7 months ago
Jonestown will always be too soon Imo
niktemadur@lemmy.world 7 months ago
It’s the Guyana Punch Man!
Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
It was Flavor-Ade
ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 7 months ago
Not soon enough, if he was there an hour earlier a big accident could have been avoided
Tikiporch@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Why is the house also saying “Oh Yea-aaaaa!” …?
Kolanaki@yiffit.net 7 months ago
Because it’s AI generated. Look at the heads/faces of the people.
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 7 months ago
My favorite is the guy with no torso or head, just legs coming out both ends
stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 7 months ago
This is AI, right? Some much cursed shit when you zoom in lol
wander1236@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
Even without zooming in there’s the double speech bubble tails
stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 7 months ago
The double tails things is sometimes normal, but that missing end quote fs tho. Still, pretty good all things considered. Wonder what model was used
n3m37h@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 months ago
To the left there are 2 sets of legs joined at the hips
dingus@lemmy.world 7 months ago
The double tails are because the house is also sentient and speaking in unison with the Kool Aid man
samus12345@lemmy.world 7 months ago
You know it’s AI when the anthropomorphic pitcher of Kool-Aid is the least disturbing aspect.
stevedidwhat_infosec@infosec.pub 7 months ago
Factual haha. Tbf I’d be a bit disturbed if the AI was good at drawing dead bodies tho
A_Chilean_Cyborg@feddit.cl 7 months ago
I was going to comment the same, some bodies have a feet and a hand in the lower part of their bodies.
modifier@lemmy.ca 7 months ago
Yes, and it’s a great use of AI. Ai is great for this sort of surreal shit, whether for Humor purposes or just to be wowed. This is a much better lane for Ai.
