Wiseposting is an internet subculture and meme format centered around dispensing absurdist, overly profound, or ironically 'enlightened' advice. While it gained significant traction through the 'Wise Mystical Tree' ads in late 2022, its roots lie in image macros featuring Chinese sages, Uncle Iroh, or various forest spirits. The humor typically stems from the juxtaposition of a serene, ancient figure paired with modern internet slang or nonsensical logic, often concluding with the catchphrase 'hmmm, yes, very wise.' It serves as a parody of inspirational quotes and pseudo-intellectualism, allowing users to turn mundane observations into epic philosophical decrees.
