It's about a laptop review on Youtube.
Someone comments the following joke:
'' The mothership (name of the laptop) is not heavier than indian school bags. ''
Translation:
The mothership is no heavier than Indian school bags.
The comment has hundreds of likes, but I just do not get the joke. Can someone explain that to me?
I think it's about the poor education system in India, so the school bags have little or no content.
Wrong, see my answer.
"Mothership" actually means mothership.
Or quite well known is the Best off albums by Led Zeppelin.
So you have to know exactly who and why there was a like.
Maybe there's another possibility.
Middle-class and upper-class Indians do not even burden their children with books, notebooks and pencils, but immediately buy them a laptop. The laptop is, so to speak, the school bag of Indian students (everything in it, what you need to learn and not difficult).
