Does the fediverse have any Explain Like I'm Calvin communities?
There is an explainlikeimcalvin community on lemm.ee
Edit: it's empty at the moment
Instance agnostic link: !explainlikeimcalvin@lemm.ee
I guess we should start posting there.
I really miss r/shittyaskscience on Reddit.
Be the change you want to see in the world. Post a question there and see what happens!
If you actually need explanation:
Sears: think Walmart but without a grocery section LONG before Walmart. Used to be catalogue only. Big box warehouse basically
K-Mart is cheap, shitty Target, basically. Always felt that way to me, anyway.
So the joke is that most normal babies come in a kit from the Sears catalogue (or box store) but Calvin was a cheap, Store-Brand deal that's almost as good for half the price!
Explain like I'm Calvin is a community like Explain Like I'm Five. Only instead of providing a simple easy to understand explanation, it's explained in a silly nonsensical (and incorrect) way. Much like how Calvin's dad often explains things to Calvin.
I misread what was said as explain THE Calvin
Yours is much funnier
