The internet is full of wonderful things. And while there’s heaps upon heaps of knowledge and services to be taken advantage of, it’s the social aspect that’s taking the lead.

As a technological invention, it has managed to give rise to a number of niche things and communities, including the r/InclusiveOR group on Reddit that’s dedicated to sharing moments of inclusiveness that nobody ever expected—when both things apply, despite there being a “choose just one” clause.

Yep, it’s the subreddit that finds situations “when the answer to a question is all of them”, so you’re invited to check out some of the best pictures, screencaps and memes the community has scavenged from the depths of the interwebs over the years.

Technically, Florida only had a few hundred more votes for trump than Biden, but he got all the votes

As of this article, not much is known about this niche community. But while it does have a very particular focus—sharing moments of inclusiveness when you’re in an “either-or” situation—it has proven to be quite a large community. Ever since the subreddit’s founding in March of 2018, the community has gained over 228,000 members.

Am I the solid tissues (bones, muscle fibres, membranes...), or the fluids (blood plasma, lymph fluid, cytoplasm...)? Separately neither is me, just a human shaped raisin and several litres of slop!

Earlier commercials had him fill up on liquid and he still had a face, so he's the jar.

The pitcher is his exoskeleton and the kool-aid is his blood.

I vote jar. He's constantly sloshing n spilling himself when he breaks walls down. Never faints or is concerned if the liquid was his "essence". Makes more sense if he's the vessel of goodness.

Actually in one ad Kool aid man fills himself up with water and then puts in the Kool aid stuff and boom he's Kool aid man. So he is the jar.

You could say the same thing about humans ... are they the tissues or are they the bacteria? Keep in mind that the number of bacterial cells outnumber the number of tissue cells.

Fun fact: The jar, in 1 add for kool aid, we see the empty jar getting out of the shower for the usual morning routine, which consists of filling up w/ water from the shower and the adding the powder. But long story short, Kool Aid Man is the jar.

If you think about it, the jar is the vessel that he possesses. That makes him the liquid.

He's the liquid because he's the Kool-Aid man, not the Jar-Man. The jar equals his clothes. Duh.

maybe the kool-aid man is actually two separate creatures that have merged together to create the kool-aid man, think Xuan Wu from Chinese mythology

Technically he markets the dehydrated remains of his relatives for humans to consume.

As mentioned previously, the community’s posts include a variety of pictures, screencaps, memes and other forms of visual internet media that perfectly capture ambiguity and specificity at the same time.

In particular, when you’re given a situation where you have to choose (or assume) one of two or more options, you choose all of them in good r/InclusiveOR fashion.

Think traffic lights that show both red and green, failing and passing an exam, or “yes” to small, medium, and large fries at a McD’s.

Realistically speaking (given that the rich don't go to prison), first one then the other would be the way to go.

Incidentally, the previously mentioned traffic lights, exams, and McDonald’s examples are some of the top-rated posts on the subreddit, having garnered upwards of 20,000 upvotes.

Bored Panda reached out to some of the moderators of the subreddit and is awaiting more information on its community, so stay tuned for more information.

In the meantime, keep scrolling, and why not let us know some of your “Inclusive Or” situations in the comment section below!

I still wonder how Arthur's glasses stayed on. I'd of said they strap on like goggles, but the side shots of him said otherwise. hm...

Well iirc Skyrim doesn't have pumpkins (though there could be a mod) and tbh, if you get of your horse in Skyrim it usually finds a way of dying or getting stuck. (my horse once got stuck on top of Froki's Shack. seriously e_e )

It's set in Aghrabah, which doesn't exist. The story originally came from China and made it's way West with trading caravans, so every place imagines Aghrabah as being eastern exotic. Except maybe China.

For me the most important question is do you press the toothpaste from the edge or from the middle? If you press it from the middle you are a monster and don't talk to me!

Maybe this will explain...Nothammer is German for emergency hammer. This is in Poland which is next to Germany. For Europeans this makes sense but not if you only know English.

...Lilo and Stitch kind of focused on siblings in a way, too. How Lilo's big sister Nani was so desperate to keep custody of her etc, seeing her "fail" at first is heartbreaking no matter how many times you've seen Lilo and Stitch.
