Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

This reminded me of a friend’s story. They and another friend get high and go to a 3d movie. Mind you, my friend’s friend is missing one eye. They have only one eye. And they’ve chosen a 3d movie.
The movie is supremely underwhelming for this unfortunately monocular person, and so they get a highdea. They take off their glasses and start rapidly moving them from side to side, and saying, far too loudly, that they understand 3d now.
At this point, I have to apologize as I was laughing so hard that I couldn’t hear the rest of their story in anything but bits and pieces, but I think they ended up going to another 3d movie immediately afterward to confirm their findings.
... That's actually possible that it made your friend^2^ understand 3D. They would have manually turned the movie into a Wigglegram and I've read of people who finally 'got it' after seeing those.

That was my takeaway as well, but the idea of this bumbling, tall hippie slurredly repeating “I understand 3d” at a luminous picture of a shark just slew me
"I know king fu" vibes
Lmao that's outrageous
I don't even get the 3D effect in movies. It just makes me nauseous and looks pixelated, but doesn't feel 3-dimensional. I stopped watching 3D movies since I was around 11.
3d gives me a headache so I understand the frustration. 3D movies are still a nascent technology, as far as I’m concerned
