Thank me later…

A time when memes were fun and goofy. Now it’s all smug-looking wojaks. Can’t we all agree to go back to those days?

Eh, we had ragefaces before we shifted to those image captions. And we also had demotivational posters before the ragefaces

Early rage faces could be good. The low barrier of entry allowed people who couldn’t before to express some funny ideas. Then they ran out of ideas and continued to beat the dead horse.

We are

There’s still goofy ones, you just gotta look harder

Anyone remember foul bachelor frog?

History became legend.

Legend became myth.

And for two and a half thousand years, Foul Bachelor Frog passed out of all knowledge.

Foul Bachelorette Frog caused some real uncomfortable and eye opening ruckus for a lot of folks.

I take issue with the first description of the first one. It is an evolution from what was courage wolf. Courage wolf was a meme template where the top line set up the situation and the bottom showed how you courageously did something in response.

People then took it to the next level with insanity wolf, the one depicted here. The top line is the same, setting up some kind of situation. But the bottom line changed to doing something absolutely insane that no person would ever ever do in real life.

Maybe don’t even post shit tier normie memes that have been dead for a decade, how about that? Use your brain and come up with actual content instead of making Lemmy look like reddit’s retarded brother

You’ve made a single post on the Fediverse and you’re in here chirping off about the content that you see? Maybe don’t bitch about things others are enjoying while you contribute nothing

Why are you like this?

I know it’s about following convention, and most of these make sense between the image and the caption, but the duck is just a duck, and there’s no reason it can’t be used for anything else

You don’t seem to understand what a meme is, the whole point is that we’re using certain images for certain situations - like a shortcut that helps you get to the joke quicker.

How could you make good advice duck dirty like that

Especially when it’s actual advice mallard

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

For some reason the link posted by Ghostalmedia worked for me but the link posted by the bot didn’t. Can anyone explain why? Is it just because I’m on the lemmy.world instance?

If the bot link doesn’t work it’s more likely a client issue I would assume (the app or browser you’re using)

Yep turns out it was a connect app issue

I’m also not quite sure of how it works yet but at least the first part is correct i think. The full link worked for you because its to the instance your account is on. When i use that link (on the desktop website) i get redirected to that site but i don’t have an account there so i cant interact with it on this account. Similarly: if I link https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/[email protected] it will work for me without problems but you should see a website where you aren’t logged in (at least using the website, mobile apps might handle it differently i think).

(Although i have no idea why the exclamation mark link didn’t work for you, it did work for me at least. Maybe its the app you are using? I remember that for example some old jerboa version had problems with the exclamation mark links where it would just crash when you tried to use them.)

Yep turns out you’re right, the Connect app seems to work with all the http links whereas the ! links don’t work. On the Jerboa app it’s the opposite so the ! links work but the http links don’t.
