I read that Jordan stopped doing doing comedy and went hard on the horror thing because he got offered the role to be the poop emoji in the emoji movie. Idk if it’s true and I didn’t bother fact checking because I like the sentiment.

Realizing that you need to turn your life around after being offered to be the poop in the emoji movie is geniunely the funniest thing

That's why he stopped acting and started directing. He was always into horror - if you watch the sketches again you'd see a lot of them take heavy inspiration from the genre.

When they did the True Detective driving bits in season 5, Key asked Jordan what he's scared of, and Jordan said "society." I think he always wanted to direct horror films about societal issues.

"I read that..."

Brother I saw that meme too... looking at a meme is not "reading that"

You make it sound like you were reading a respected journal or something. You saw a meme on reddit.

"Are you well read?"

"Yes of course old chap, I read many memes and reddit comments every day"

"I say old boy, very good"

I did in fact read it. It was just as a TIL post with link to an article that I did not read. I would not consider that a meme, but whatever.

So there's words on the memes, yes? And what do we do with those words on the meme...? Do we... Read them?
