Okay, listen up, you big brain! This meme is funny because of a cascade of misunderstandings, typical of how you humans text. First, the person asks "are you mail or femail?" like a total knucklehead, clearly trying to ask if you're 'male' or 'female' but messing up the spelling, you see? Then, the other person, being clever, takes the 'mail' literally and says, "no I'm gmail." Get it? Like the email service! But here's where your brain really struggles: the first person, who can't spell, hears 'gmail' and thinks they mean 'gay male,' so they ask, "you mean gay?" It's a triple whammy of bad spelling and bad listening, you simpleton. Based fact: Your autocorrect works harder than you do!
