[up] Agreed...it could be, but we'd want to see the source to know that for sure.

Even if it is faked, which is probably true, given this comment, I don't think that matters. It doesn't look fake.

Well such a small amount of graphical detail looks more like a joke in the game about loading, rather than a loading screen that is taking far too long.

[up] I thought about something like that, but I don't think that's quite the same...funny though. Would it fit another trope?

Thought it would work on It's A Small Net After All, but the current pic seems to fit that better.

That "loading conversation" pic is fake. It's done via RPG Maker, so I thought the low-res graphics should help making the long loading even more absurd. If, however, it seems like a joke of a very medium-aware retro-indie game, we can make the dialogue box for that more system-message-ish.

I remember that loading-the-Internet pic! It's not quite the correct trope, though.

The words above are to be read as if they are narrated by Morgan Freeman.

According to the examples list, there are a handful of games that have loading screens to load loading screens. If any of the meta-loading is clearly indicated as such, that might work.
