gmtom,

Lmao I replied to a guy that took a meme about Markiplier being the the ideal human very seriously and complaining that men don’t exist to attract women, yadda yadda, saying he shouldn’t take memes so seriously and he got so upset he blocked me.

yeah man. my political memes are just jokes if challenged.

balderdash9,

I expect politics, religion, etc. to get that sort of response. That’s not what I’m talking about.

To give you a concrete example, I recently made a meme about using a condom stored in my wallet. Bunch of comments about how you shouldn’t store condoms in your wallet. Like, that’s technically correct, but it was just a silly meme.

Dude, you shouldn’t store condoms in your wallet.

flambonkscious,

That was petty funny, and I find it educational, embarrassingly…

I’ve got snipped years ago, and it was not much of a problem before, fortunately - that would massively suck!

XbSuper,

If you post to the internet, expect to be criticized. If you can’t handle criticism, don’t post to the internet.

Pickle_Jr,

I am going to dissect the fun out of this meme, and say that dissecting memes is part of what makes memes engaging 😎.

If there isn’t an in-depth analysis of the meme as well as an argumentative debate where we have to choose sides and require moderator intervention in the comments, then what’s the point of making a meme 😎?

flambonkscious,

Fuck you guys, I’m defederating!

I hear posters complaining about such comments but I never see them? Am I blind?

thorbot,

This post is just “Old Man Yells at Cloud”

RizzRustbolt,

No, it’s the Pepe Silva one. See the picture?

balderdash9,

Hey, if you think it’s not a thing why not find out for yourself. Post some memes that you think are funny and see how it goes

rustyfish,
@rustyfish@lemmy.world avatar

I can’t. I am not funny.

lugal,

Relatable

scottywh,

Fortunately for you, neither are most of the other people who post memes.

Sorry but that’s for us to decide via intensive analysis and thorough dissection of said meme.

gmtom,

Here’s an example

lemm.ee/comment/6989105

Zorque,

"I posted a dumb meme and people made fun of me for it, wah wah wah"

balderdash9,

“I feel called out for being a cunt on the internet, wah wah”

See how easy that is?

Zorque,

Why quote yourself as a response?

You seem to be taking this all very seriously for someone bitching about people taking things too seriously.

corrupts_absolutely,

if you open comments and spend more than a moment there youre weird

Maybe in a meme post, but otherwise this comment makes absolutely zero sense.

corrupts_absolutely,

minority of people comment, most of users just upvote/downvote/ignore the post and move on. so its “weird” to be in comments, but its also just weird to expect people who have something to say not to be verly invested

@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

Here on lemmy sure and that’s what’s killing it. Someone just shared a Reddit post recently about outfitting their home with Ethernet and there were 140 helpful comments. That type of contribution is what makes it good.

corrupts_absolutely,

its the same across social media. reddit just has(or had) enough of a user base to enable such discussions consistently

willya,
@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

It’s what makes it good. If we all continue to not leave comments or discuss anything this will forever not be great.

lugal,

Either that or you are weird for not engaging with the comments. We will never know.

corrupts_absolutely,

i try to reply to everything worth replying to

FlickOfTheBean,

Memes are serious fuckin bsns.

Can’t have subpar memes in MY community lmao

Jokes aside, hope your memes find better traction!
