I love how when you first get a tumblr you reblog every popular post and you think they’re all so funny and then your humor slowly degenerates until all you reblog are vague neo-dadist memes that make no sense in reality but by then you’re too far gone into this hell site to even think about what could possibly be funny about vaguely ominous Craigslist ads
Why bring back old memes when we can back this song?
2004 is calling me… whispering
numa numa yay
the funny thing about this is I sincerely have followers that were born in the same month i discovered this flash video on newgrounds
Ah, yes, 2004… an excellent vintage. Truly a most delectable meme.
Pre-YouTube, Pre-Monetisation…what a time to be alive,
a superb old fashioned meme
A few years ago I made a post about how we were entering a period of micromemes. Memes that only lasted a few days/weeks. Meme production over the last few years has only increased to the point of there being a new meme a few times a week. Meme production will increase, quicker and quicker into infinity. I warned against the dangers of a meme singularity. I fear that soon, the meme singularity (memeularity) will be upon us. Every meme will exist within each other into infinity. It’s already happening. Meme fusion is just a cheap tactic to make micromemes seem stronger. We will soon be splicing memes into an unrecognizable mutant disaster. The memepocalypse is upon us. I tried to warn you.
Rat memes are so funny because they’re like horse girl memes in that they’re completely incomprehensible to normal people
Cis people being upset about trans people saying “down with cis” are just so…
Like oh, you’re upset about a meme? That’s cool. Maybe tell your fellow cishets to stop killing trans people while you’re over there complaining to them about it
then why is it ok for trans people to make jokes or memes about cis people but its not ok for cis people to make jokes/memes about trans people
Because you’re not oppressed. You don’t have to worry about getting killed for being trans. You wont be denied a job or get beat up in the fucking bathroom. Your parents wont kick you out of the house for being trans. Your parents wont make you go to conversion therapy or abuse you for being trans.
And they get this one thing, right? They get this safe space on the internet where they can vent and be themselves and make jokes. ONE FUCKING THING.
But nooooooooo they ain’t allowed to have fuckin jokes because it hurts yalls feelings
Grow up.
corn flaek
it’s because reality is terrifying and our world’s dying, and our developmental years were spent in a constant state of using increasingly nonsensical humor to cope
It’s called the rise of neo-dadaism and the same thing happened during WWII
well that’s not concerning At All
next meme: overanalyzing memes and meme discourse
I think one of the most baffling memes of the last few years was the “Keep calm and ____” meme just because people disregarded the format more than any other meme I can think of. And I dont mean ironically like “look at me I am the captain now” how people would just throw phrases into it that didnt make sense, I mean how the phrase “keep calm” just because a marketing technique for literally anything. I saw a bumper sticker on a car this past weekend with the phrase “Keep calm and I am a Greyhound Owner.” The phrase “keep calm” adds nothing to it other than an excuse for the person to put a bumper sticker on their car saying that they are a greyhound owner.
Another amazing example of this was when Ben Carson tweeted this image on his birthday, implying that people were fraught with anxiety only to be calmed by the fact that it was Ben Carson’s birthday.
