    H-how did this meme clear up a confusion I have with ** pointers after all these years?

    They’re just pointer pointers!

    Dang, that is so cool C can do that.

      If you’ve never seen this before, I think it’s transformative to how you read C/C++ declarations and clearer up a lot of confusion for me when I was learning.

      Yeah, and I’m pointing to your pointer pointer and I’m a pointer pointer pointer. Or more accurately but less funny is that I’m pointing to your pointer-to-pointer and I’m a pointer-to-pointer-to-pointer.
