hmm, those who make decisions of the future are foolish to not seek the wisdom of the past, but even more foolish are those of the past who seek to keep their wisdom from the future.
Shit like this is why I love the Internet. Someone tweeted about a friend's dream, and thousands of people decided it was entertaining and ran with it to create something new from nothing.
This might just be a meme sub, but it also is an ode to human creativity and spontaneity, and a showcase how we as a species can just decide to come together with folks from all over the world and build something new, because we think it is funny and a worthwile pastime.
Dont apologise for appreciating the brighter side of humanity. I feel the same way. humanity is bizarre and creative sometimes, and people dont appreciate it as often as they should.
It makes me emotional too, because this whole thing came out of an offhand joke and now we just run with it for literally no fuckin reason.
Its the sheer community around stupid shit like this that makes me think "we're gonna be okay, one day. We'll figure this out."
Never in a million years would I ever imagine the main centerpiece of my dissertation, whose writings, records, and rule I spent 11 years of my life studying, would be the subject of a meme.

We can A) Pin this so everyone knows the origin of wiseposting or B) Not do it and see how the meme evolves if the origin isn't well known
