Click here if you don't understandThe meme is a reference to the song "Bulls on Parade" by Rage Against The Machine. Go to this video, skip to 0:22, the guitar riffs will sound like "wow, wow, wocka, wow wow, wocka wocka wocka" ("wow" being a phrase Owen Wilson is associated with, and "wocka wocka" being Fozzie Bear's catchphrase).

Thanks, but what about the face that is faded on the right?

Great band, was my favorite as a teenager in early 2000s.

It was a dream come true when they reunited “recently”. I held tickets 3 times in my hands, but the show was cancelled everytime (covid, Zack’s injury), and now it seems like they are disbanded again, so it’s never going to happen.

Still, I saw Morello last year, he played some of these RATM riffs, so at least I have that off the bucket list.

I jam the song all the time....but I didn't get it until you explained it. Hahaha. Hilarious, thanks for clarifying.

Pretty great op post as well.

Same. Never would have occurred to me to describe the onomatopoeia that way.

[–] BreadOven@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Wow. Haven't heard that since highschool English class. But yes. Thanks for pointing that out.

A very niche joke. Thank you for explaining!

But there's a 3rd face in the background?
