A succinct phrase that unfortunately has to be used whenever a person, despite already doing the best you can to make your point clear, has misinterpreted your point.

Using this phrase is almost essential nowadays when you try to express your opinion on the internet.
Internet user 1: So what you're saying is that people aren't allowed to have personal opinions?

Internet user 2: I ask for you to make an effort to understand me. I am not saying that people's right to freedom of speech should be taken away, but rather that free speech should have limits. Hate speech crosses that limit.
Get the I ask for you to make an effort to understand me mug.
A meme about rick and morty where people post this in reply of those criticisms of the show.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Rick’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick’s existential catchphrase “Wubba Lubba Dub Dub,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon’s genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂

And yes, by the way, i DO have a Rick & Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎

A joke used by those who are savvy in mathematics. The joke is funny because it makes the point that the person saying the phrase only understands the decimal system, which relies on numbers in groups of 10. The binary system relies on numbers in groups of 2. If the speaker of the phrase had been able to understand binary, he/she would've said the phrase correctly, "there are 2 types of people...".
there are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary and those who dont

Decimal:
0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,
10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,
etc...

Binary:
0,0
0,1
1,0
1,1
etc...

A nerd joke, used by those who understand binary against those who don't.

A general statement made when you're perplexed with certain results.
Hypothetical: You put a 6 team NFL football parlay in.

As the games get under way, right from the get go, it doesn't look good.

In sheer astonishment, you state, "I just don't understand, how can I when I can't even comprehend!"

A nerd joke. The irony of this is the code 10 is more or less meaningless. the code for two is 00110010 or 011101000111011101101111.
01001001 01110100 00100111 01110011 00100000 01100011 01101111 01101101 01110000 01101100 01100101 01110100 01100101 01101100 01111001 00100000 01110111 01110010 01101111 01101110 01100111 00101100 00100000 01100010 01110101 01110100 00100000 01101001 01110100 00100000 01101100 01101111 01101111 01101011 01110011 00100000 01100011 01101100 01100001 01110011 01110011 01111001 00100000 01101111 01101110 00100000 01110100 00101101 01110011 01101000 01101001 01110010 01110100 01110011. heheh. there are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary and those who dont.
