    Could you maybe please explain for those of us who only get half (or none) of it?

        That’s the half I picked up on, but based on the other comments, it seems like there’s something else that I’m missing.

          The pipe comic with Garfield was also likely referencing a famous Magritte painting.

          The painting is a kind of play on self-reference

          Meme-ception for sure

      It’s an internet meme culture thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_(comic)

      Particularly, the section “Legacy as an internet meme” is relevant.
