edit: now it’s a meme and we can all hug in the comments.
Not funny.
Not a meme.

Approximately 99% of stuff that gets posted here are not memes. I think you’re fighting a losing battle here.

You know I was looking at some of the architecture down town today and thought to myself, “just think, none of this would be possible if there wasn’t someone critiquing mud huts 10000 years ago.”
Can we, without relentlessly criticizing, let people have their un-funny, non-memes and screenshots and whatever little harmless things in which they’ve managed to find a tiny shriveled flower of joy?
FINE.
What are the essential criteria of a meme in your view?
I would say a Twitter post isn’t one. At least scribble on an image of some.kind.
Okay, I’ve edited it so we should all be happy now
👍
Whew! All clear, it’s a meme. Pack it up, people.👮♂️👮♀️
IMHO an idea that spreads person to person, not just PSAs that are unlikely to be shared further.
So the avocado face on the bottom right of this image IS a meme. And if this Tweet turns into a copypasta, then it’s a meme.
I’ve seen this particular tweet like a dozen times now, so it’s definitely spread far and wide. Some people only think of image macros as memes, but yes the broader definition I’ve seen is essentially a viral concept.
Could we, without relentlessly criticizing, let people have… whatever little harmless things in which they’ve managed to find a tiny shriveled flower of joy?
Did you even SEE the avocado with a face? Meme.
/s if needed…
Reminds me of where I used to live, Reddit.
You’re 100% right. But I’ve seen comics and tweets do well here, so this post isn’t going against the norm
yes I posted stuff that doesn’t fit the community but everyone else is doing it
The community of users collectively decides what does and doesn’t belong here
It’s called “Memes” dude, you post memes here.
Yep. Came for the memes. Unsubscribed for the other shit.
If there was some other place to post that would get the same traction I’d gladly put it there. But its not really that big of a deal at the end of the day
That’s what I expect a pumpkin spice in September enjoyer to say.

All hail the meme god! Decider of what is and isn’t a meme!
You’re a Reddit refugee aren’t you
Somebody should make a movie around this message of jaded adults refinding their humanity in an absurd, hyperconsumerist world through the rejection of cynicism and embracing of liking things again, but cleverly disguise it as a movie made to sell plastic dolls to little girls to play on the concept of hyperconsumerism.
I think this hypothetical movie will be a smashing success in the box office. And probably win the lead actress an Oscar this year.
Totally irrelevant to your comment, keep up the strike and hold the line! Assuming you’re the real Margot Robbie and have a prolific platform. I know it’s not fair, especially to the less recognizable members but a lot of other people who are thinking about unionizing are watching the WGA and SAG strikes to see if labour can still win. It’s not just you guys, we’re all with you. Even if they’re too stupid to realize this strike is more important than a new season of NCIS. Labour winning this strike proves that labour isn’t out of the fight and capital hasn’t completely won. Stay strong! Hold the line!
Thank you.
If I hear Christmas music before at least November, I will go nuclear
completely agree. people can have their decorations whenever and whatever else their heart desires, but i draw the line at christmas music
I don’t mind people putting up decorations early, it’s when stores swap out their seasonal stock early that triggers me
Last year local Home Depot started clearancing out Halloween decorations to make room for Christmas stuff in September.
You had me until the too early decorations. The other things don’t take away my joy. That does.
Also harm isn’t why people care. Its the erosion of well defined seasons in order to push corporate products on us and in the end we get fucked up melding of events like remembrance day while people are preoccupied trying to get Christmas shopping in.
It turns what was once cultural events into corporate buy shit quarters. Because its easier for Walmart to sell Christmas stuff in October then wait until it’s the season.
Its a loss and erosion of an important shared culture in favor of only corporate sponsored ones.
This is the reason. It’s all just so commercial now and it never ends!
How does me putting an inflatable grim reaper in my yard in February take away your joy?
Nfi but this comment just brought me great joy. I’m grinning.
If just one person does it, it doesn’t. But there are always more.
I don’t criticize people for enjoying those things, I criticize the corporations for relentlessly monetizing those things, making them insufferable and sucking all the enjoyment out of them for money.
I just want to end misspelling “avocado” .
It’s like “Gandhi”. Seems like freaking no one on the internet knows how to spell that name.
Ghandi?
Gone-dee
I once turned in a project on that very individual at secondary school in which I had his name misspelled the entire way through.
It did not go well.
This is humanity, there will be no joy! ☝️
The drug cartels receive a substantial amount of money from avocado production (weird but apparently true)
Cinnamon is carcinogenic
Many fandoms have a disturbingly sexual element (especially my little pony)
Halloween is a celebration of consumerism, microplastics and diabetes.
I’m sure there’s a dark side to d&d but I can’t think of it right now.
You’re welcome

Praise satan!
Cinnamon is carcinogenic??? You know what, I don’t care. I love cinnamon, and this propaganda won’t change my mind. I’m going to plug my ears and go “lalalalalala”
As far as I can tell, there isn’t any evidence for this in humans. Enjoy your cinnamon.
oh is it one of those “feed a mouse ungodly amounts of the substance to see if it causes cancer” studies?
Oh those are my favorite. “We gave a mouse 3x it’s body weight in this substance and it got cancer. This must be carcinogenic!”
Thank you, I will!
So I had to look that up and ask a friend versed in nutrition. Apparently no adverse findings wrt Ceylon cinnamon yet.
That’s why your body rejects eating a spoon full of cinnamon as seen in that stupid challenge a few years ago.
WEF tried to depopulate the western countries with that viral meme

You forgot the sugar levels of pumpkin spice, which make Mountain Dew look like a health drink.
So i can enjoy one guilt free?
Pocket sand, you’ve been upgraded to pocket cinnamon

Huh?

Rofl. I’m so relieved. I thought this was going to e akin to “teletubbies are infecting our children with a gay agenda!”

Serious.
If you are seriously annoyed by any of these things, then it should be a reminder of how unburdened and care free your life is that such a thing actually bugs you, and spark a sense of pride and contentment instead.
This is the way.
I found my tiny shriveled flower of joy in being a hater. Today’s target: people who upvoted this garbage. The fuck is wrong with you? It’s not a meme and it’s not funny, it doesn’t belong on this community, and it’s so sanctimonious it gave me diarrhea.
Tomorrow’s target: people who push all their furniture up against the wall
Thursday’s target: Scots
Upvoted Taddington. Hope ur ok hun
D&D can be cheaper than wood working
Until I go to build my D&D table.
This is the rare hobby crossover and it costs more than the sum of its parts.
Guy across the street spent the weekend putting up Halloween decorations with his daughter. We can this guy “Heavy metal dad” because year round he displays pentagram flags, and wears heavy metal band shirts with the sleeves cut off all year. It’s great.
If I can’t criticize every insignificant difference in lifestyle that I have with a stranger that I probably won’t ever talk to again in my life. How else will I stroke my ego and fulfill my basic need of feeling superior to others?
