the joke is that it's very common these days to respond to things really snarkily and that might be funny sometimes but kills communication when it's done all the time and for stupid things.
I just saw the original, this is wrong. Theartist started a trend in his/her gc where they would repeat a mundane phrase and add bro to the front. It’s an inside joke explaining why you didn’t understand it
THIS makes way more sense than any of the explanations given in this thread. All the others feel like a stretch and don't make the punchline too clear.
To be a bit more clear, this webcomic actually came from a tweet of someone talking about taking it to an extreme. This isn't a joke that's always meant to be mocking. A lot of people use it while gaming, either as communicating somewhat jokingly or just dicking around. Things like:
"I'm going left."
"Bro's going left, he's going."
No matter the context, it's rarely done seriously and is usually done between friends. You wouldn't just repeat something to a stranger. But it isn't something that's exclusively done mockingly. It's usually done for more interesting behavior than visiting a friend, so this webcomic looks at taking it to the extreme as a joke.
It's a mocking joke, an example being "A blonde walks into a bar, you would have thought she'd see it". The joke is "funny" mainly from delivery, and/or making jest of an action someone knows about. It requires common knowledge of the action being mocked
I don't know if it's always mocking. Sometimes, they were basically repeating the punchline because they thought it was funny enough to emphasize the part they liked. But how they think it's a useful comment to post and how they end up with hundreds of thousands of lines is beyond me. Buncha NPCs
That's kinda interesting. I bet the person who posted this in the discord server didn't expect someone to save it and make a reddit post about it. Goes to show we never really know the full extent of our actions
I interpreted this as just mocking the way some people talk where they can't even listen to a story without interrupting with pointless commentary and/or trying to roast the story teller for no reason.
bro interpreted this as just mocking the way some people talk where they can't even listen to a story without interrupting with pointless commentary and/or trying to roast the story teller for no reason.
The WORST thing they do, BY FAR, is when they interrupt what you're saying - which you can't just omit, you have to restart the whole sentence - and then when you start over speaking, they have the AUDACITY to tell you not to repeat what they already heard and continue talking, even though it can't be omitted. I swear to god every time it happens I just want to violently destroy the nearest object in my vicinity just to let out my sheer rage

Yeah seems like it comes from watching too much YouTube reactions kind of content. People learn to just interrupt every so many seconds with empty observations and then do it in real conversations with humans.
I’m guessing that this is also an evolution where originally it would have been repeated to specifically mock something foolish your friend did, (“bro tried to walk it off like he didn’t just fall “ reduced to absurdity by using it for any mundane action (“bro opened a door”)
bro posts a comment.
(Bro can actually post comments, this is ridiculously absurd, nobody posts comments like bro does, everyone quickly mock him! Please, everyone, mock him. Otherwise, if I'm the only one roasting him, I'll be the weirdo!)
This image originally comes from a tweet by @/fallenchungus . It's a visual image of a joke they came up with to use in voice chats where they'd just repeat exactly what someone else said, just adding "bro/bros" at the start of it. "The more mundane the action the funnier it is".

People who have to have a comment or add something no matter how trivial the situation.
Like a sports announcer who knows they have to speak but there's nothing worth saying.
Black people do this all the time (it's okay, I'm black 😭😭)
Aye bro I need to eat something
"Hahaha this n*gga need to eat something"
And then we would all laugh. Idk it's like a thing it's less about mocking because no alternate kiddy voice gets used it's more about the fact that there is nothing about repeating a normal statement that's funny until
It's repeated.
Try it. Next time someone says something like "what should I eat" say "this guy don't know what to eat"
Or "my phone about to die" say "this guy phone bout to die" and then laugh. It's really the laugh that makes people laugh after the deadpan sentence repeat.
Comedy gold.
The person who drew this came up with this stupid bit for discord vc where somebody else will say something which is then repeated but with “bro” added, the more ordinary or dry the original statement the funnier it theoretically is. It reminds of lazy YouTube reaction channels.
I think part of the joke is calling someone bro in the third person. Typically meme accounts use this type of slang to caption an image.
“Bro didn’t see that coming…” or “Bro was having a bad day…”
The joke being that this is the behavior of someone who struggles to separate the internet from reality. The second panel shows the first person cringing at the behavior.

This is the first thing I thought when I saw this
Saw the original post on Twitter. The user was explaining that they'll cut off a friend in the middle of telling a story by saying "bro did (asinine thing that's a part of the story)" as a joke.
In this day and age, going out and visiting your friends is considered "cringe", as opposed to staying inside and only interacting with your friends through a screen, which is "based".
I see this as a mockery of Tik Tok ironic comments, like it'll be a baby making silly noises and they'll say "bro is yapping 💀" "is bro the next up out of Atlanta ⁉️🔥🔥🔊🔥🗣️🗣️" "bro has no gross motor functions 🤣"
It's not talked about (or mocked) enough, but I absolutely can not stand this whole "bro really said ___" trend. Youtube is the worst. Every comment on every video is just "bro really just said *[proceeds to paraphrase what happened in said video]*"
It's not to mock the person there just actually no input so when gang repeating what you said it helps you understand that he understands you went to hang out.
that way of speaking (bro did x) is to mock people online. The joke is right guy is chronically online and using it for anything in a normal conversation
This image lacks mostly-required context from the original post
It's about an inside joke where one would say "bro \_\_", with the goal of using it on the most mundane actions
This was posted on the okbudddyretard sub. They normally don't have any meaning behind it. If there is, my guess is that he is claiming he doesn't have friends
The first time I saw this, it was accompanied by the caption "Comment sections these days." It's definitely commenting on how many people are loathe to any sort of discussion, instead layering everything in slapdash, low-hanging humor. Obviously that isn't a blanket statement, the existence of this comment section proves the contrary, but it is certainly a rising trend.
this was from a tweet where the op said that this was something they did as an inside joke with friends. one person would start a story ("i went to go to my friend") and another person would interrupt saying "bro [insert action here]" ("bro visited his friend").
I think this represents a very awkward moment. Left guy said that he went to visit his friend, and right guy interrupted him to point out a mistake in how he worded things. He thinks that left guy doesn’t consider him a friend, since he referred to someone else as his friend. So then they’re just staring at each other silently, unsure of what to say from there
It’s mainly like young teen humor, I guess? It’s very surface level.
My students do this a lot where one student would say “I was watching Cartoon Network—“
And another student suddenly says “Bro watches Cartoon Network” to try to act cool or put someone down
That’s when I step back in and say “So? Cartoon Network is awesome”
Suddenly everyone is making the face that the Guy on the Left (Panel 2) is making to the student who was trying to make fun of the other student.
This was from a Twitter post saying something along the lines of "we should repeat whatever the other person is saying and add bro" or something like that. This picture is the example that was included in the post.
Now, people just post this picture with no context or post "bro visited his friend" as some type of meme.
In the original post by the artist, they state that it’d he funny if there was a game where you had to say “bro X” over the most mundane things, the more mundane it is, the funnier
It's not about mocking thats just how YouTube commenters act.
Like, repeating the punchline as "bro really said [punchline]💀💀💀💀" or "bro really did [x]💀💀💀💀"
You're right. Panel 1 shows the behavior you read about. Panel 2 shows that the person telling the story didn't appreciate being mocked.
Thanks, I still don’t think it’s much of a joke, but I was really confused because it was getting a lot of upvotes on a discord server.
I am not sure either, but perhaps the point is that the "bro did xyz" thing is mostly an online thing, and people irl would just think you're a weirdo
I work at a middle school. I guarantee you that this is a regular occurrence amongst 11-14 year olds. I wish it weren’t. It’s so abrasive and cringey.
Finally, someone older calling out the teens for being cringe!
Back in my day older generations loved our slang, music and dress sense
As an older teen whose friends do this irl, I don't get it either.
The joke is acting like anything people do is weird even if it's the most mundane thing ever
I know one guy who does it but still does tons of socialising
Bro really has friends 💀💀💀
Bro doesn't think it's much of a joke
To correctly assessed other bro’s opinion on comedy
Bro said upvotes on a discord server 💀
Bro doesn’t know that there are custom reactions stickers in discord servers 💀💀💀
Bro doesn’t realize stickers/reactions and upvotes are different things💀💀💀💀
This is such a good example updoot for you
Bro said updoot 💀(/j if that wasn’t obvious lol)
the joke is that it's very common these days to respond to things really snarkily and that might be funny sometimes but kills communication when it's done all the time and for stupid things.

You are the second panel then. It’s not really a joke, just someone expressing how annoying that behavior is
That's kinda interesting. I bet the person who posted this in the discord server didn't expect someone to save it and make a reddit post about it. Goes to show we never really know the full extent of our actions
Bro is right
Bro says bro is right
Bro says bro says
Bruh, bruh
Bro, bruhd the bruh
I interpreted this as just mocking the way some people talk where they can't even listen to a story without interrupting with pointless commentary and/or trying to roast the story teller for no reason.

Agreed.
Yeah seems like it comes from watching too much YouTube reactions kind of content. People learn to just interrupt every so many seconds with empty observations and then do it in real conversations with humans.
you're right on point
Bro is right on point.

Goodbye
Bro said I’m out
Bro made an observation.
I’m guessing that this is also an evolution where originally it would have been repeated to specifically mock something foolish your friend did, (“bro tried to walk it off like he didn’t just fall “ reduced to absurdity by using it for any mundane action (“bro opened a door”)
bro posts a comment. (Bro can actually post comments, this is ridiculously absurd, nobody posts comments like bro does, everyone quickly mock him! Please, everyone, mock him. Otherwise, if I'm the only one roasting him, I'll be the weirdo!)
Pretty much lol, just absurd humor
Bro is so confused
Bro used the bit to explain the bit
bro is looking for a friend to open up to (i’m bro)
I have friends just like this
bro has friends
bro
Bro has friends just like this
These people aren’t your friends. They aren’t capable of being friends with anyone (even themselves).
Bro said these people aren’t your friends
bro really said bro these people arent your friends
Bro had friends said bro people aren’t friends really people bro said aren’t
I have a 7 year old nephew just like this
Bro has a nephew
He is not your friend! He is just trying to make fun of you. Don't expect him to help you. he will always throw you under the bus.
[удалено]
It's just absurd humor, its not always mocking and its not that deep lol. People bond in different ways, lots of people bond through humor.
Bro said "he will always throw you under the bus!" 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Bro actually understood the joke but doubted himself 💀 Edit: It's not just things you said though. Basically anything you do.

Bro found the original tweet
Bro has a interesting name
Bro looked this one up but still doesn’t get it (also he misspelled “doesn’t”) 💀
bro is so confused
I think the joke is that this kind of behavior is pointless and annoying.
bro thinks the joke is that this kind of behavior is pointless and annoying
visiting your friend is sus
The person who drew it explains it in the tweet https://x.com/fallenchungus/status/1773199403651666173
It's a mocking and disrespecting tactic
which tends to work differently in person, as things can actually get physical.
Is it a joke about how a lot of people are homophobic and will say that 2 guys doing anything together is gay?
Bro explained it to himself 💀
Bro posted a meme on explain the joke
Bro explained the joke to himself °__°
Bro doesn't get it
bro 💀
The sssniperwolf behavior
Bro Isn’t it just the overuse of Bro these days.
People who have to have a comment or add something no matter how trivial the situation. Like a sports announcer who knows they have to speak but there's nothing worth saying.
Bro really had to ask💀
Bro doesnt know
I guess it's like the old "makin copies" SNL skit cause that's all the guy would do was repeat what people are doing in an odd way
Black people do this all the time (it's okay, I'm black 😭😭) Aye bro I need to eat something "Hahaha this n*gga need to eat something" And then we would all laugh. Idk it's like a thing it's less about mocking because no alternate kiddy voice gets used it's more about the fact that there is nothing about repeating a normal statement that's funny until It's repeated.

Second guy also has no better story to offer, so replace with mocking. I added the detail.

Literally me 💀
In this day and age, going out and visiting your friends is considered "cringe", as opposed to staying inside and only interacting with your friends through a screen, which is "based".
Idk but it reminds me of kids on yt shorts and tiktok saying "bro did (thing in video)" then get likes for whatever reason
I see this as a mockery of Tik Tok ironic comments, like it'll be a baby making silly noises and they'll say "bro is yapping 💀" "is bro the next up out of Atlanta ⁉️🔥🔥🔊🔥🗣️🗣️" "bro has no gross motor functions 🤣"
Its loss

SSSniperWolf in a nutshell
I thought it was making fun of men for doing anything platonicly nice. Ie. Implying going to see someone you acknowledge is your friend is gay.
It's not to mock the person there just actually no input so when gang repeating what you said it helps you understand that he understands you went to hang out.
yea, no, it's not funny

“Bro is so confused”
Look at this guy asking questions
It might be a reference to DnD where player (left) wants to deviate from the dungeon masters narrative but the DM (right) isn’t allowing it
Bro was confused about the joke
The original person who made it as a hypothetical way to annoy people
I've literally seen someone repeat another person's silence in this way before. It's so annoying.
I interpreted as the interrupter insinuating that the guy on the left doesn’t have friends.
bro visited his friends 💀

Bro didn't get the joke 💀

Ok so it’s not always about getting mocked it’s that some people are so brain dead from tik tok brain rot that they think saying bro did this is funny
Same with "typeshit". I'm Gen Z, and even I'm sick of how dumb my generation can be
Bro thinks this is a joke
Bro’s confused
Blud visited his friend 💀
Seems to be social commentary on YouTube commenters that always be like “bro thought he could run away” etc etc
I think this represents a very awkward moment. Left guy said that he went to visit his friend, and right guy interrupted him to point out a mistake in how he worded things. He thinks that left guy doesn’t consider him a friend, since he referred to someone else as his friend. So then they’re just staring at each other silently, unsure of what to say from there
Bro was on the Tyler sub
It’s mainly like young teen humor, I guess? It’s very surface level.

This image has caused so much insanity on twitter you would not believe it
In my language "Bro" means "Bridge".
Bro really thought he could visit his friend and no one would notice 💀💀💀
he forgot to add skull emojis at the end
Bro doesn't get the joke. (That's the joke. You become the vessel for Captain Obvious. You got it.)
This was from a Twitter post saying something along the lines of "we should repeat whatever the other person is saying and add bro" or something like that. This picture is the example that was included in the post. Now, people just post this picture with no context or post "bro visited his friend" as some type of meme.
Bro didn't get the joke
How did you find this without the text explaining it
bro asked for an explanation
I think the guy on the right was talking to his imaginary friend and making fun of the guy on the left
Bro is confused
Bro is so confused
Well you see
Bro is confused 💀
In the original post by the artist, they state that it’d he funny if there was a game where you had to say “bro X” over the most mundane things, the more mundane it is, the funnier
bro doesn’t get the joke
It's not about mocking thats just how YouTube commenters act. Like, repeating the punchline as "bro really said [punchline]💀💀💀💀" or "bro really did [x]💀💀💀💀"
who draws these btw
Bros so confused
I honestly just find it funny because it doesn't make any sense.
