I’m a random amateur fantasy writer. One day, long ago, I was working on an interactive fiction game which was billed as a dating sim where you get to have a night out with one of my characters, who is an alchemist.
Bulk of the game was supposed to involve helping her examine various ingredients on the shelf of her shop and seeing which had gone bad. You know, dating the stuff can be crucial.
Also she’s absolutely right. That is the proper way to answer this insipid question.
is he both asking and answering the question?
Nope. He’s just a bit slack jawed at her naive answer in the 2nd pic.
Longer explanation: This is from Miss Congeniality movie starring Sandra Bullock who is a cop who has to go undercover as a beauty pageant contestant for a case. The meme pictures are from the questions portion of the pageant. The guy is the pageant host and asks about her perfect date. The second panel is the contestant responding. She had a sheltered upbringing and misunderstands the questions intention. She happily replies with an actual date on the calendar April 25th citing the nice weather and light attire.
When asked for a follow up he just replied: “Denny Crane”
It’s cold and rainy…
It’s also ANZAC Day, this is fucking disrespectful. 🇦🇺🇳🇿
It’s too hot
I need a raincoat, but otherwise right on.
Depends on where You live. In Denmark, I’m working around in a winter jacket. In Poland I would rock a T-shirt today.
Is that Shatner? I never noticed.
Spring is very unpredictable in many places. Could be freezing, could be hot. Could have terrible damaging storms. Maybe all three in the same day. I’d go with October 2nd.
Yeah we’ve had snow in the end of April, spring just does their own thing. Today it’s 10 C outside, you most definitely need a jacket.
Unfortunately, not in 2025
The Kanto region of Japan today was 20 and cloudy with a light breeze.
Depends on where you are.
Southern Scandinavia checking in with 13 and sunny with a light breeze
Somewhere there’s a weirdo who keeps a meme date calendar and always keeps these in circulation. Whoever you are, weirdo: thank you for your contributions to the culture.
They used to have these calendars you could keep on your desk with a new meme every day before you got off my lawn.
I am that weirdo when it comes to Earth Wind & Fire’s “September”.
Every September 21st, I’m sending that to someone or posting it somewhere.
Is it on your calendar with an email/push notification?
Now i kinda want to do this.
I’d join this meme date Lemmy community in an instance.
it was below freezing this morning and we’re seeing highs of +8°. not buying it.
She isn’t wrong It’s a great day here

Ooh, that’s such a good question—it’s got romance, mystery, and a bit of existential spice. But let’s get specific: do you mean the perfect calendar date, like April 25th (ironically, today), famously called “not too hot, not too cold” in Miss Congeniality? Or are you thinking more like a moment in history when everything aligned—love, weather, vibes, global peace, etc.?
Because if it’s the first one… you might be living it right now.
Want me to explore both angles?
