Antimeme, not BHJ. BHJ involves reinterpreting a meme into something that is not relevant to either the intended meme format or the source material. Basically, intentionally missing the point of the meme

Now we need an additional edit to replace the mouse with the AI penis mouse that got published in a peer-reviewed journal

Acrylamide is also a persistent neurotoxin, meaning that it can’t be flushed out of your body and any acrylamide that you collect in your body will just continue to collect
