No, it’s a straight up rip off. Parodies add something new, give you insight into the original. This is the same joke with the names changed.
I guess its a matter of opinion. To me it’s parody. In fact, I find this joke more fun BECAUSE I know the original.
I don’t know Randall, but I expect he would enjoy this.
I see it as an homage to the original.
It also clearly cites it at the bottom. Its not like this is plagiarism. Its clearly making the point that this is the new, awful truth of the world before us, and maybe we need a few avengers, like little Billy Ignore Instructions and his vindictive mom.
Sure
I still laughed. And I’ll share.
Rip off were the words I originally wrote, but I didn’t feel like being that mean about it. I don’t fault your reasoning though.
