Kay. Have fun being a wet blanket mate. 

If being a wet blanket means that I am not a mindless zealot like those zombies who say Reeves or Chuck Norris is the greatest human in existence, then I'm proud to be one.

Again dude. Jokes. Memes. No one actually thinks that.

EDIT: Actually, I take it back. There ARE mentally ill people who will fixate on famous figures. I'm sure Chuck Norris and Reeves each have at least one somewhere in the world, like any other celeb. But that's a completely different situation than someone online going, "lawl, Chuck Norris *insert joke about him breaking reality*".

Out of all the celebrities people worship he is not really the one I would complain about. So many celebrities that are bad roll models.

So KR is going to get a cameo in the new Spongebob movie.

Super yay (and I say this in a monotone voice with complete apathy.)

What, I suppose you expect me to proclaim that him simply breathing will instantly put an end to Covid?

All the more reason why I hate people who expect me to treat them seriously. As if these comedic material actually had any real-world purpose. I can probably expect this from people saying stuff like this about fictional characters. Because no matter how realistic fictional characters are, they'll never be fully human. But when you equate  CN or KR as being God who can do anything and that they're the definition of everything that is good, that's when the line is crossed.

 

There are those of us who do like that he is a good human being. I admit that I'm one. I appreciate him being a proper model. But we don't give two sh*ts about things like every footstep he takes or what thought is on his mind every second or that all other good people like him are nonexistent.

Well there’s your problem. Two problems actually.

1) A lot of humor is based in reality, but other forms of humor are based on absurdity, the opposite. It’s funny because it’s ridiculous.

2) Humor is subjective. If you only find reality based humor funny, then nothing is going to help you “get” Chuck Norris jokes. They aren’t your style. The end.

 

And no one is ignoring the other good people in the world. They just don’t know who those good people are. It’s easier for human beings to affix emotions to someone whose face they can see and whose name they know, rather than a nebulous hypothetical nice person somewhere on Earth. That’s just how the human brain works.

You might know that good people exist all over, but you don’t actually know who they are, so you can’t focus your goodwill on them. You’re only focusing your emotions on a hypothetical idea.

Just like Joker said it, some people I've met online always insist that even though they're aware that those claims about CN or KR are just "jokes," they insist on making those claims the absolute truth of humor, as in all other forms are pointless and stupid (Something like Oxford definition of humor - Chuck Norris or Keannu Reeves). All because they worship them as God and that they want to evangelize everyone to worship their "divinity and greatness" like some cult. They think that they alone are the only existing authority who determines that CN and KR humor is the only humor, and they use their obsession as the reason why. Too often, I'd encounter some CN or KR "joke" that is completely irrelevant to whatever Youtube video or some other subject I'm on that doesn't and shouldn't involve them at all. And besides, I've actually understood a number of jokes there, and they still aren't funny at all.

 

For the record, I'm not jealous of either of them. It's because their worshipers remind me of preachy people in my life who keep trying to make me Catholic again even though I left long ago.

Some people just worship celebs, but not everyone does.

I like the memes, but any celebrity worship is cringy. Specially with their deaths. I see non stop homages and such from people who had no idea who said celebrity was , and act like life long fans all of a sudden

And I know for a fact this "exaggeration" is not for comedy, whether it's for Chuck Norris or KR. Everyone does it to p*** off everyone who's minding their own business and to intrude on topics that should not have anything to do with either of them.

Joke?... 

Seriously, Chuck Norris jokes were funny for a while but they got old pretty quickly.

Keanu Reeves on the other hand is...Timeless.

You sound like the anti-bronies who used to come unglued if someone randomly mentioned MLP outside of a dedicated thread. As if it was done specifically to irritate them.

Chill bro. People do in fact do things for reasons that have nothing to do with you or what you think.
