  • I’d say the joke isn’t just about Turing being out of character by characterizing himself in a way he really wasn’t (as in he didn’t really go around saying he was gay, but the UK government made a big deal out of it), but mostly about him being more interested in technological progress that solved something he might have cared about just a bit instead of his own field of research, which he most certainly cared about a lot.

    I get that you are concerned, I just think it’s a bit of an overreaction on a site where neither OP nor probably anyone else seeing this meme thought “haha it’s funny because he was gay as in going to hell”.

    We should pass a law that mandates all billboards have to be some joke submitted by average people and selected by random chance and/or whoever gets to be on the funny committee. We should do this for a year or at least a month, making sure a lot of billboards get memes about ads sucking ass. Then we give the billboards back to the advertisers and watch as chaos unfold.

    That must have took some balls. One of the celebs in my country got into the news by brake-checking in front of a bus with a Bentley. The footage from the inside of the bus is savage. Sure he probably wouldn’t have died from that crash but that car sure looked expensive. Anyway he died a year later, urban legend has it from a cocaine OD. Karma is real kids.

    I was like this with 2001: A Space Odessy. I love Kubrick, I love sci-fi, I even like art that may require a change in perspective/that is more abstract and I’m an old movie buff. Yet Space Odessy wasn’t for me for some reason. It’s long, streched-out and has some scenes you wish would already end by the second minute, yet they last for 20. I liked the surreal bits a lot but for the almost 3 hours it took to watch it I really can’t say I was entertained.

    I ended up watching Interstellar later and while it’s far from Space Odessy in artistic value I ended up feeling that was more like the movie I wanted Space Odessy to be. Obviously they are not very similar but it had some concepts that without watching I hoped Kubrick already figured out for some reason.
