Sad news, but isn't the Doge in the picture Kabosu rather than Balltze?

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@beehaw.org 47 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Kabosu is the original doge ("very wow," etc.)

Cheems came with dogelore later on

Edit: Wait, that is Kabosu in the picture wtf

If the text is accurate, “falling asleep” is probably more humane than chemo would have been, anyway.

My sympathies to all who loved him.

I can say from experience, it's always a hard decision

Yeah this one's the bonk dog, not the wow doge

[–] LinkOpensChest_wav@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

The more I think about it, it's somehow an even more appropriate tribute to Cheems that it's not even him in the picture

Correct. Use of Doge in the pic is from meme creator being stupid.
