Image Text

I'm just trying to explain, please don't be jealous! Man, why are all my relationships ruined by early 90's rappers?

Description

In the image, Randall tries to explain his intentions of his relationship with his significant other by drawing a Venn-diagram. A Venn-diagram, for those who didn't pay attention in math class, shows collections of elements (the circles) and their relationships (the overlap of the circles). Deduction of the above diagram leads to an element called “You” that is part of the collection “People who can always make me smile”, as well as “People I want to spend the test of my life with”, as well as “People who constantly show me new things to love about the world”, meaning it possesses all of these characteristics. Sigh, romantic.

However, another element called Vanilla Ice (which is a reference to the artist most famous for his 1990 hit “Ice Ice Baby”) is also part of the last two collections, meaning Vanilla Ice possesses almost the same characteristics as You. And since this is a romantic outing, people tend to get jealous if another person almost possesses the same attraction to their significant other as themselves. And that explains the image text.
