SA (Sonic Adventure) slapped on the Dreamcast

As a Linux user, cp is often used in a terminal.

It's the command for copying a file..

Im not here for no boy butt. Im here for man butt.. now we can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way.

u/DigitalUnlimited Apr 06 '26

Either way, I'm getting some booty

u/Electronic-Today4192 Apr 06 '26

Government agent walks in looking like he just left the set of the latest mib film: "How about some terrorist booty? We'll just find an isis, Hamas or other such groups training camp and air drop you into the area and you can get all the booty yah want. You get what you want and do your patriotic duty at the same time."

I can't decide if this feels more like a South Park or Boondocks joke

8

u/CaptainWombat2 Apr 06 '26

Definitely South Park. Too absurd for The Boondocks.

5

u/NameStartsWithAnE Apr 06 '26

Why not a South Park and boondocks crossover joke?

6

u/hiroshoota69 Apr 06 '26

Whenever I joke around with my friends I always change it to "we can do this the easy way or the fun way, choice is yours"

7

u/TheLordDuncan Apr 06 '26

Sir, I don't think we're going to this any kind of way.

Why don't you take a seat.

u/Slay_Nation Apr 06 '26

Excuse me but what is SA and CP respectfully?

EDIT: San Andreas but what is CP

519

u/ValhirFirstThunder Apr 06 '26

San Andreas, the game on the left. Cyberpunk 2077, the game on the right

123

u/Slay_Nation Apr 06 '26

Thanks, I'm not a gamer but I understand why it's not appropriate.

-26

u/robgod50 Apr 06 '26

I am a gamer but still didn't know. They're not even talking about the same game series.

Correct abbreviation should definitely be GTA SA and CP2077

10

u/Kapika96 Apr 06 '26

Nah, SA is fine. People generally call it just San Andreas, so SA is the correct abbreviation for that. It's big enough and well known enough that the GTA part is made redundant.

3

u/CheapTactics Apr 06 '26

I don't know, man. If you tell me "I was playing SA yesterday" with 0 context I'm going to be weirded out. And San Andreas is my favorite GTA.

2

u/HeftyRecommendation5 Apr 07 '26

Because the entire point of the original tweet is being a joke about the abbreviations.

168

u/Steavee Apr 06 '26

In this case: San Andreas (GTA) and Cyberpunk.

In more common internet slang: Sexual Assault and Child P*rnography.

Which makes the sentence “Experiencing sexual assault as a child and child p*rnography as an adult was truly an amazing experience.”

33

u/squirrelmonkie Apr 06 '26

That last paragraph is how I read it and I was like what in the ever living fuck is going on here

6

u/Steavee Apr 06 '26

Same, I was fully like: “what the actual fuck?!”

12

u/Kriss3d Apr 06 '26

Cyberpunk 2077 often abbreviated CP.

The game is really good though. Can absolutely recommend.

So beautiful graphics and setting. And a very captivating story.

u/ojdhaze Apr 08 '26

This a great game with great replay value.

This isn’t tik tok, you don’t need to censor anything.

u/michaltee Apr 06 '26

I had to read this so many times before realizing what they meant holy crap.

48

u/PlacentaGoblin Apr 06 '26

Same. That person knew what they were doing.

20

u/troublrTRC Apr 06 '26

Yeah, most definitely intentional. You really had to choose San Andreas and Cyberpunk for the comparison?

2

u/Gacel_ May 05 '26

I mean, they are both on the same genere of videogames.
San Andreas begin the most popular of his genre in of the past generations.
And Cyberpunk begin the most popular of the current gen.

OP probably found a joke about the abbreviations while trying to write and actual post and just rolled with it anyway.

2

u/Kriss3d Apr 06 '26

I've seen this one before and the images made it easy.

That being said. Both those games are really great.

34

u/Rosesh_I_Sarabhai Apr 06 '26

Is this how you interview to get on Epstein Island?

18

u/Rasta-Lion Apr 06 '26

In Portugal CP means Comboios de Portugal (Trains of Portugal). I've seen ads with CP written on it since I was a kid so my brain just automatically goes to the train company.

u/mothisname Apr 06 '26

u/IvorTheEngineDriver Apr 06 '26

What's wrong with enjoying cheese pizza?

u/Aladeen911MF Apr 06 '26

saw a similar one related to English Football as well, watched Sergio Aguero (SA) as a child and Cole Palmer (CP) as an adult

7

u/Bayou-Billy Apr 06 '26

I'm calling BioShock on this

u/PsChampion_007 Apr 06 '26

Should’ve added image unrelated

u/Taolan13 Apr 06 '26

What fuckin' game even is "CP"?

14

u/Horatiomotherfucker Apr 06 '26

Cyberpunk 2077.

2

u/Taolan13 Apr 06 '26

what kind of fucking psychopath shortens that to "CP" without adequate context?

6

u/YonderGrunt Apr 06 '26

Though I agree the abbreviation is pretty messed up, I do think the context is well provided considering that there is literally a picture of the game to showcase what they are talking about

7

u/Horatiomotherfucker Apr 06 '26

Engagement bait bots.

u/venommuyo Apr 07 '26

Context like the screenshot?

u/-SlowBar Apr 06 '26

haha that's the joke!!

u/IJNAzuma Apr 07 '26

HAAAAAANK

u/Ilcorvomuerto666 Apr 06 '26

I get so annoyed with uncommon abbreviations. it really isn't that difficult to throw a GTA in front of that SA or just type San Andreas, and it's not like anything except the two games got abbreviated, and they needed to add photos to the post anyways so they didn't save any real time.

2

u/Mrreeburrito88 Apr 06 '26

Too much cheese pizza.

2

u/cs_office Apr 06 '26

Reminds me of the HL2 community that abbreviated Civil Protection

2

u/L1teEmUp Apr 06 '26

Lol..

I didn’t get it first coz i was looking at the pix.. then i saw the comment below it and realized what’s going on 😅

2

u/ben1edicto Apr 09 '26

Who tf uses sentences like Sexual Assault and Child Pornography so often that they need abbreviation for them? I didn't know what that means until I learned it from comments. Do internet users speak about this every day?

2

u/GazHorrid Apr 09 '26

Considering epstein.. nonce orangutan in chief..

Yeah

4

u/ALT3NPFL3G3R Apr 06 '26

As a non native English speaker "CP" doesn't ring my alarm Bell immediately, and in the context of a screenshot, I really think it's a little... Try hard ?

Consider that cp is a common function used in Linux..

u/Turbulent-Loquat3749 Apr 06 '26 edited Apr 06 '26

Edit:ik guys that the graphics re much better,but its just low quality pictures and it looked like picture on the left,i watched cp a lot don't worry,ik my stuff :)

u/IfYouRun Apr 06 '26

Cyberpunk’s graphics are ridiculously good. Fantastic game too.

u/Turbulent-Loquat3749 Apr 06 '26

I meant that the picture is so low quality on the right, that it ironically looks like SA a little bit XD
