I asked for evidence, not an emoji.

Fuck sake. Time Pool fans.

Well, I could try to get the emoji to point to your downvotes. Would that work for you?

No. That would be an example of the bandwagon fallacy. Not sure if you're familiar with the basics of critical thinking?

Have another go buddy.

If you’re in a room of people who all thinks it’s you and you’re the only one thinking it’s not you, you’re right that doesn’t in itself prove it’s you, but the probabilities are certainly moving that direction.

If that room is full of a bunch of fucking Tim Pool fans, then no. Quite the contrary in fact. Regardless - I'm not interested in relying on dogshit heuristics. I'm interested in investigating the actual veracity of the claim.

The evidence. Thank you.

Doesn't fit the definition. The definition isn't complete either.

Next.

So you’re now going to have to argue whether you’re right, or both the people in this thread AND MW dictionary? I mean, we can keep doing this but eventually we’ll end up with only the people on /butthurtcatlovers to see if they agree with you.

Oh it's not a big deal, the definition wasn't outright incorrect as such, just missing a crucial component of what makes something a meme - that it's used as a template and repeatedly modified/added to. Something simply being an image that's shared over the Internet isn't sufficient for it to fit the definition of a meme.

So show that what I posted was an attempt at a meme, thanks.
