[Theswweet]

I translated the tweet (original can be found here)

Rest in peace, .jpg doggo.

 

[GeoNeo]

[Muffin]

RIP pilot doggo

 

[Rikucrafter]

JPEG Dog now becomes the best way to honor him ; - ; As a pet owner who lost his own piece of heaven a couple of weeks ago, I feel so much for him that his puppy will be immortalised forever and so many people have been made happy by discussing JPEG Dog.

 

[ChippyTurtle]

Aww...bye bye doggy.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

That's an amazing way to honor them.

 

[Deleted member 2652]

dogs are too good :(

 

[Reversed]

Rest in peace, brave pupper :(

 

[jett]

He's dancing with the angels now.

 

[Grisby]

Shooting down big ass steak ribs in heaven.

 

[tyfon]

So the dog has now truly passed into eternity. He will never be forgotten!

 

[MysticGon]

I thought it was a stock image. RIP dog.

 

[Got Danny]

Damn, that's honorable

 

[SliceSabre]

Well now I feel bad for joking on it.

 

[giancarlo123x]

Y'all should feel shitty for your deeds and words in the last thread for talking shit. RIP pupper

 

[thepenguin55]

He was looking pretty white in the face. A cute tribute.

 

[Chance Hale]

Now he can't retrieve my heart ;-;

 

[Dark1x]

Wow, it was a tribute all along.

 

[Sabot]

This twisted game needs to be reset. : (

 

[Gilver]

He looked like such a happy pupper. RIP

 

[RyougaSaotome]

That's one way to immortalize the cute pupper.

RIP, pal.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

RIP and also nice tribute .

 

[gabdeg]

Could have at least .png'd him tbh. RIP old lad.

 

[Laughing Banana]

Awww.

Well, it's good that the puppy is now immortalized in a very good game, along with princesses too! RIP, good boy.

RIP

I hope you are all ashamed of your words and deeds.

 

[chrominance]

I HOPE YOU ARE ALL ASHA--oh I guess we got that joke in already.

RIP, you were and are a good dog.

Spoiler

especially good at fooling people into thinking they're looking at a really well modeled dog for 80% of the length of the one cutscene you're in

 

[Adamska]

Project ACES living up to their name, these guys are Aces to the end and in the way they honor their fallen. That dog was probably a great wingdoggo, may he rest in peace.

 

[mudai]

That's heartbreaking. Rest in peace. ;__;

 

[Handa]

But once you recognize the secret reason for JPEG Dog you will feel ashamed of your words & deeds.

Dammit, i guess everyone had that joke in mind

 

[jon bones]

a good boy

 

[Mr. Fantastic]

you fucking DICKS

 

[Deleted member 38050]

Fine, I'm gonna be the guy to say it: he should be called PNG Dog rather than JPG Dog, he clearly has an alpha channel

 

[Futabaisthebest<3]

Now I feel bad for laughing at Twitter gif without context. I learned my lesson.

RIP JPEG dog.

And RIP wuff wuff!

[bbq of doom]

[marrec]

[SPRidley]

Could have at least .png'd him tbh. RIP old lad.

It was always a png, it has an alpha channel for the invisible background during the cutscene. People calling jpeg dog were always in the wrong here.
