I was just having an argument with someone that got banned from a Lemmy instance because a meme from 30 years ago got him banned because the meme says " the man, the legend.. "and op was a she/her, while she/her was ignorant of the meme she/her didn't even bother to understand the old memes and got the dude a Perma ban from the Lemmy instance for " internationally misgendering " she/her. Moral of the story no matter what generation you are or how meme knowledgeable you may be there's always a she/her that will hurt you with the ignorance badge.

If you don't have in-jokes with the homies tf is up with you? Thats basically memes in a nutshell, though obv some memes are more localized to particular ingroups then others so I can understand the flipside... Spiders georg vs. jolly ranchers vs. todays main character sounds incomprehensible except to the right intersection of three websites (though with cross pollination being what it is you may only need one.)

Memes in a nutshell called meruses, and you can be infected by them.

Why do people add 'rule' after post titles?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago (1 children)

you didn't memorize the little picture did you

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No, but I admire the people who can memorize, recall and communicate by using the little pictures without the slightest effort. 😔

[–] [email protected] 40 points 5 months ago (1 children)

You know the rules, and so do I.

(read the community rules)

[–] [email protected] 66 points 5 months ago (3 children)

So I'm supposed to memorise all your little community rules just to post here?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 months ago

No no no. You can just post and hope that it complies with the rules that you didn't read, and then if someone takes it down, you have the choice to either complain or cope.

The "rule" in reference is if you visit the community you must post something before leaving. And titles are hard.

Edit: wait —

Important to add that, originally, this was the only rule in 196 (although the mods of this community have made other rules for more transparent moderation)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

No you should know the rules of each community you are posting on.

I appreciate people like this because they let you know right from the start they arnt worth your time.

If I keep showing you memes and you don't get them, I will start to question if you are even a human being since most memes are relatable to simply being human. Like, even a normie should relate to generic memes.

Unless they don't understand how to read the format

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The using eyes to see colors format?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

How dare you be so demeaning to colorblind meme-enjoyers

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Blind memes are not as punchy

This guy definitely read "The Game" and thought he was successfully negging

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

The Game Trilogy was a great read 👍 (books Game, Buzz, Bubble)

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 months ago (1 children)

And I just lost, thank you very much

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 months ago

Fuck I lost too

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

If they make me leave, I would say it's very successful
