Gondola: The Wisest Meme | Meme Analysis 

“idle hands are the devils workshop” gondola has no hands, and thus is pure

Gondola. The only current meme I can think of which doesn't just revolve around making post-ironic so-bad-it's-good jokes. We need more memes like this.

So glad people still remember gondola

I think the lack of arms represents the helplessness of the individual in the modern age, condemnded to wander and observe. But that just might be an impression from overdosing on gondola sadposting

Gondola is the eye of the hurricane, a bit of reprieve in a shit storm all around. Wholesome, but without being cringe. Wise, but always exploring to learn more. Gondolas always been my favorite meme to be honest, it's so refreshing 😊

The Dao.... Jones Industrial Average

Emperor preserve this meme

This has been a meme in finland since the early 2010 da fug :D

I love Gondola because of how friendly and calming he is, It just seems like a nice and almost childlike thing you'd come up with bored.

He is acceptance of the world as it is. He is the wandering spirit, ever in search of beauty and tranquility. He is at peace with all things he cannot change, which are many, for he is only an observer, not a manipulator. Gondola is a beautiful meme.

Surrendering tranquility, no matter what else it brings, always affords a faint sense of having lost a higher place. All desires are dissatisfied. Only peace is happy. Legs and a face. Position and awareness. Gondola is presence as such. He is beyond all ingratitude.

The textbook definition of Gondola is: "a light flat-bottomed boat used on Venetian canals, having a high point at each end and worked by one oar at the stern." Possibly representing that the Gondola only travels.

I almost forgot my ways...

I felt at peace, tranquil and relaxed after watching this meme review. Life can become so hectic sometimes. Thanks.

that's it I'm getting that giant gondola doll from /k/ommando store

Gondola. More art than meme.

i love gondola since i was 13, it's been my little secret meme when i tried to relax or detach myself from reality.

This is my favorite video yet. It has given me much to reflect on personally as many of those quotes from the Dao resonated with my own personal philosophies. However, I do love martial arts, and with that comes a "delight in the slaughter of men". It was also refreshing to hear you talk over serene music and ending the video with a solid call to action and hot takes about money as energy!

Gondola will forever be the best meme,the watcher

"He bears witness to the world as a series of forms, constantly being created and destroyed, where the only permanent things are the elements and the energies that constitute them." I nearly teared up at that bit. Another great meme sermon from our cyberspace psycho-analyst-shaman.

Be careful exposing these non-normie memes to the public

Gondola just makes me smile :DDd

This and your ketamine Yoda videos are my favorites.

Gondola is a perfect representation of Finland. Cold, lonely, quite and depressing.

Old school 4chan memes are always the best.

This is my favourite video of yours yet! I hadn't considered the significance of his lack of arms until you brought it up, really interesting 😁

Amazing and insightful content as always!

Gondola is basically Taoism the meme is there extensionalism the meme

This reminds me of Stoicism philosophy. From what I know, what matters is living in the present fully, and doing your best in the present always. How can this be related to gondola?

I have been waiting for this

I always associate this meme with Finland for some reason

this was wonderful, thank you

I love gondola, all the songs, drawings, and animations inspired by it

this has always been my favorite meme. theres truly nothing else like it.

The music is a very good touch!!!

Imperfect yet so perfect. Gondola is pure

Yeah I can say gondola threads are some of the most memorable I can think of, sharing music with frens and sharing art and rares and enjoying a good talk with others you will never see or ever speak with again, it is a simple joy.

Gondola, my beloved

This speaks so much Truth to my heart. Thank you so much

The Gondala is equivalent to Master Iroh, peaceful yet the most powerful. Vs General Zhao’s rage can be compared to Wojak or the post ironic memes. Zuko can be compared to the audience itself. As being tempted by burning rage since it feels “useful”. However we as the audience/ Zuko comes around to Master Iroh/Gondala’s peaceful inner self. Those who are powerful have no need to prove their power, it is known. Just like how fire can be used to fend off predators, cook food, and bring warmth, it can also do damage beyond repair. Our ego and our inner energy should be guided by us, not the other way around.

You're forever a genius in my books fren.

Nice. It was very interesting to learn about Daoism, it is always interesting to see a new point of view, wonderful video.

thanks for these meme analysis

I wasn’t ready for this one.

I've spent a few nights listening to the comforting music and seeing gondola right in front of me

awesome video!

Gondola is the best meme. The clips and scenes and images of him are only really understood by those who are able to glimpse the world in a dispassionate, sage-like way.

Thank you Meme Analysis

Never thought of this meme like this

This video was awesome. Thank you.

Thank you Caleb for have acquainted me with Gondola (:

i love that new outro

Thank you for this content

Thank you

Gondola leaves the crust on it's eyes when waking up after a good nights sleep, simply because it has no arms!..

Good work sir

this video is more therapeutical than informative

That outro is really dope

CONTROL. To release is wisdom. To grip is masochistic.

Got here within a minute of you uploading

this is a good way to be a target of agression, to reject pain doesnt make it disapear.

How come this channel doesn't have a million subs yet?

Great video, gondola really deserved one to be made about it :D

I think, an important thing to note is also the resemblance of Gondola meme to old Benis :===D memes, if I recall correctly. The phallic imagery is especially noticeable when Gondola is sitting, not to mention his general form: little head with an outline of long legs. And I am a bit disappointed you couldn't touch on this in more detail in your video. I am hardly savvy at interpretation of phallic imagery, but here is my (mb, cringey) take: Gondola is a penis inserted into to womb of the world in the moment of awe before its consuming vastness and beauty (notice how in memes Gondola is preoccupied with observing nature, vast spaces, and often - celestial phenomena). Thusly Gondola is an inactively active character, despite being relaxed - assertive, although made less in the womb - not consumed or overwhelmed. In lieu of the texts you mentioned in the video, Gondola is the Daoist who saw his fate in this void, but became free though this revelation, not afraid while facing his imminent end by the devouring Mother Nature, and so liberated from fear and burden, for he saw in the void the singular beginning of a new Universe.

Oh man finally one of my fav memes got its 5 minutes

Very cool. Thank you

Mental how it all started from a finish parody of pedobear

crewmate without a spacesuit, crewmate without cynicism.

Congrats you made me almost cry

We should all aspire to be a little more like Gondola.

Walking around having discovered enlightenment is the same as regular walking around, just 2 feet off the ground

almost perfect video

This channel found me

God bless this meme 🙏🏼

Silly MemeAnalysis Gondola is just Homestar's fursona.

i’ve first seen a gondola meme in 6th grade and never forgot.

and then, it is all one, whether he was happy or miserable, for his life was never anything more than a present moment always vanishing, and now it is over

Gondola is my sleeper favourite meme. He really makes me feel calm.

Just watching a gondola vid or seeing a gondola meme is enough to calm you down

Can u do a “Damn shawty r u ok?” meme analysis

Feels good man

Is nice to contrast how a being like gondola (if there's such) wouldn't want everyone else to be like gondola, else there wouldn't be anything for them to observe with a wonderful gaze. Is like you say, unlike the intense jungian beliefs full of turbulent insight the dao is easy going but also therefor not totally applicable to every moment in the complications present in the real world is rather a welcome moment of fresh air in the midst of the turbulence. It reminds of the knight of dark souls next to the bonfire meme, a moment of rest before returning to the harsh but interesting journey. Speaking of, i know you don't like them but i wish that some day you give an opportunity to videogames, there's some insightful works among them that show their immense potential as an artform, i know that the majority of them specially the famous ones are as deep as a bottle cap, but so are most of the mainstream films these days, overshadowing the good ones. PD: i rarely write things this long in English so i hope I've done well, love your video's pal never stop.

If everyone lived like this nothing would get done.

The Gondola abides.

Spurdo Sparde meme analisys when?

The outro 👌

Now I can't be truly free anymore since you manufactured the path to it. Curse thee.

can you recommend a place to start reading about tao. i also would love to live without arms, per se.

gondola has 5 am energy

spurdo is the chaotic brother of Gondola

God i wanna hug gondola

Solid outro🦍👌

You know what's cooler? Is that to actually understand the Dao and wu wei, is to *DO* not doing, to participate in not doing. The conclusion to the Dao is it's beginning, the idea that everything is a cycle. To me that is so deep an meaningful I don't know how else to describe it in words. Because frankly, there aren't any, the only way to really understand it is to live it.

brilliant

Gondola is such a cool looking meme.

I have seen this thing for years and had no clue what it was or what it was for

"gone-doh-lah"

BENIS :DDDDDDDDD
