Do we need to make a joe Biden joke while we're at it?

Well, the inverse is "we're so Barack".

I think the "joever" has been detached somewhat from it's original meaning (I for one did not know where it came from until right now)

how is it even funny if you don't know what it means?

Slang and snowclones and memes often are detached from their originally meaning.

"So long, and thanks for all the X", "grok", "long time no see", "catch 22" etc are all expressions that are commonly used by people who may not be familiar with their origin.

Long time no see has a popculture origin!?

no, but it was (supposedly[0]) some native american english pidgin.

I only meant that most people don't think they're citing native americans speaking broken english when using it today.

Thought it was a Jojo reference or something. Either way, you chose to be offended.

At this point, it's just a meme. No more about Joe Biden than pogchamp is about Ryan "Gootecks" Gutierrez.
