sounds like me. I don't specifically hate memes but like new ones pop up constantly and some seem to be generated just so an individual can throw things up. dank ass, memeorama, funny home of the fun, just all over the place. I actually just blocked 196 a bit ago because I was loathe since I consider it a bit more historically legit but man I want like less than 1% to be memes.
It's just too much. Even the ones I find funny, there is just too much, and with so many communities and cross posting they multiply. And things like the Star Trek instance, I've seen some episodes and some of the movies, but I'm not into Trek so much I need a steady stream of that every day!
I like when people reference memes in response to something I post and I can look up whatever it is on Know Your Meme and enjoy it. That's probably not how memes are exactly meant to be enjoyed, but it's how I can appreciate most of them. Maybe a little too Abe Simpson yells at cloud, but I'm allowed to operate how I want! 😇
I agree here to. I mostly like something that has discourse happening and if someones discourse is a relevant meme then thats fine. Although if everyones discourse was meme it would be like ugh. Its best when used sparringly.
Exactly, I appreciate them as a condiment, not a main dish!
oh thats a perfect analogy. I might even take it higher because I say something like this with bacon and cheese. Both are incredible. Fabulous. I have and can eat them straight, but I mostly like them on things. Bacon cheeseburger, bacon wrapped X, Cheese X.
Stop, you're making me hungry! 🤤
