I am whelmed by this exchange
whelm /wĕlm, hwĕlm/
transitive verb- To cover with water; submerge.
- To overwhelm.

I'm too dumb to get this one...why is this funny?
Dude's arguing with the dictionary.
-
Because they’re being like “bro please, come on“
Huh...what they actually write in the response in no way suggests that to me, it's just completely nonsensical like they started typing the response but accidentally hit send too soon and just didn't bother fixing it.

Like I already wrote in a different reply, that part I get, it's the Merriam Webster response that doesn't make sense to me.

Because Merriam Webster creates and produces the dictionary of the English language. They're literally the one who decides if a word is official. Their retort is succinct.
wrote last edited by [email protected]How is just tagging him by name, and repeating his first name succinct? I don't get any sort of meaning from that response, it reads like a mistyped response.

The punctuation is pretty clear tho.

So you've learned today that you can just say someone's name as an equivalent to an exasperated "bro.. "

Just imagine your mom saying your full name with an audible full stop, right after you said/did something a bit dumb

You've excellently demonstrated how different contexts makes different things work...you scenario has no similarities to the image

I am merely intending to show how 'just saying someone's name' can be taken as a reprimand/mild reproach. Which is what is happening in the original image.
At this point so many people have explained this that I feel you might be willfully ignorant. Cut it out.

Needs context for it to work

I think you were correct in your top comment
It's a joke. You don't get it.
That's okay

But it wasn't just saying his first name. It was "First Last First"
