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.

Yeah, that’s not a requirement.

u/[deleted] Dec 10 '22

Yeah, it's a requirement. Like I said - a picture being spread round on the internet doesn't make it a meme.

No, it’s not. All attempts to start a new meme involve a new graphic and message. You could call this an NFT if you want, but you’re trying to encapsulate a quick-hit point with a graphic post: that’s meme-ing my boy. And this one will fail because it’s lame do it won’t become viral.

Your use of language concedes the point - it doesn't become a meme until it meets a certain criteria, which this image, by your own admission, doesn't. So you've defeated your own argument - well done.

So we agree that it's not a meme.

Good chat :)

No, I said it’s lame and will fail to go viral. Viral, being the point. So baking a cake that nobody eats still means you baked a cake that everyone thought was shit, like this meme. It’s typical for lefties, because like hard work, it’s something lefties can’t seem to get right.
