One Better

Explanation[edit | edit source]

This strip is part of an effort of intentional lazy edits designed to lampoon lazy edits; as such, it reduces the strip down to two panels, one-upping 2553: Tener Cuidado Con Lo Que Deseas by paring down the final panel from that strip, thus turning the mention of lazy edits into the punchline. This strip would be one-upped by 4160: One Even Better/Worse, which further pared down this strip to a single panel and single singular punchline, and thus continued the intentional lazy-edit trend.

The author writes:[edit | edit source]

My thoughts on seeing SRoMG #2553 were, quite simply, "I can do you one better." Also, note that I don't share Jon's sentiment: what the world needs now is love sweet love, not more lazy edits. I only do this because a series of 2 strips does not qualify as a "meme", and I share Crazy56U's sentiment of "Bedenke, was Du Dir wünschst, es könnte Dir gewährt werden".

Original strip: 2015-01-06.

Transcript[edit | edit source]

Jon: You know what the world needs more of? Lazy edits.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

The statement of Crazy56U's sentiment got hit by a mojibake error in a later site recoding effort; the original version of the author's notes unaffected by the mojibake is currently lost to the public as a result. The mojibake error did not affect the formatting code; the mojibake is properly italicized. (If demojibaked, the German in question is the most common German translation of the phrase "Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it")
