dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Lol. The dude literally defined a genre. Why do you think he's got like a dozen movies made based on his books and several TV series?

Amount of books sold and movies made doesn't make him one of the greatest authors alive. Harry Potter sold well too and tbh they're kinda mediocre books now that I'm an adult. Also by your metric the Twilight series is one of the greatest book series ever made.

All of those are books for kids, maybe young adults, and those demographics don't really have the greatest taste in art.
