H-how did this meme clear up a confusion I have with ** pointers after all these years?

They're just pointer pointers!

Dang, that is so cool C can do that.

If you've never seen this before, I think it's transformative to how you read C/C++ declarations and clearer up a lot of confusion for me when I was learning.
