I take issue with the first description of the first one. It is an evolution from what was courage wolf. Courage wolf was a meme template where the top line set up the situation and the bottom showed how you courageously did something in response.
People then took it to the next level with insanity wolf, the one depicted here. The top line is the same, setting up some kind of situation. But the bottom line changed to doing something absolutely insane that no person would ever ever do in real life.
The 8th one, with the lady crying, is definitely wrong. It was a first-world problems, something people wirh comfy lives would complain that are not a real problem.
That was my thought at first. I think what they mean by "something a third-world person would like to complain about" is more like "someone from a third world country wishes they had those kinds of problems instead of the ones they do"
Early rage faces could be good. The low barrier of entry allowed people who couldn't before to express some funny ideas. Then they ran out of ideas and continued to beat the dead horse.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !antiquememesroadshow@lemmy.world
For some reason the link posted by Ghostalmedia worked for me but the link posted by the bot didn't. Can anyone explain why? Is it just because I'm on the lemmy.world instance?
Yea I remember that. His sisters drug addicted boyfriend if my memory serves. He said he laced it and the cops ruled it an overdoes. Not sure it was ever verified but there was definately backlash
Far too many people are using confession bear to gather sympathy for non-confessions
"My boss told me to kill 52 orphans and yell racial slurs at black people but I told him to fuck off, even though you shouldn't swear. (Now please go ahead and tell me how good of a person I actually am)"
I know it's about following convention, and most of these make sense between the image and the caption, but the duck is just a duck, and there's no reason it can't be used for anything else
You don't seem to understand what a meme is, the whole point is that we're using certain images for certain situations - like a shortcut that helps you get to the joke quicker.
Maybe don't even post shit tier normie memes that have been dead for a decade, how about that? Use your brain and come up with actual content instead of making Lemmy look like reddit's retarded brother
You've made a single post on the Fediverse and you're in here chirping off about the content that you see? Maybe don't bitch about things others are enjoying while you contribute nothing
