Now do one with just the random asshole tweet without the meme.

i thought he had something to do with avatar. is it really some random?

Watched both and the cat is superior in every way.

Except it watched the real-action movie of avatar. That was so bad their trilogy got only one movie

[–] bleistift2@feddit.de 3 points 9 months ago

I didn’t even get the point of that movie. Tell the same story again, but in less time? Why?

[–] Deceptichum@kbin.social 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

but I only regretted my time spent watching one.

I honestly have no idea if you're referring to avatar or m night shamalayan avatar.

As a comment in Youtube about the Aang vs Ozai video said, more or less: "There's Avatar, and there's the military movie about blue cosplayers".

Side note, am I the only one thinking a lot of people use the word "meme" wrong like this? To me, the "meme" is the format. The conceptual joke. Not the individual example, as in this case.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It can be either. I think most people refer to specific instances though.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Huh. That's not how I grew up with the term.

E.g. "it's become a meme at this point" doesn't make sense if it refers to an instance, as well as it does referring to the concept of the joke.

[–] bleistift2@feddit.de 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Why not both? In English, every word is a noun, a verb and an adjective, each with 28 1/2 meanings, anyway.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

lol, I mean, sure. Let me rephrase: am I the only one who remembers the word meme to originally mean only the conceptual joke format rather than a specific sample of the joke format?

That's probably better. (?) 😁

Pepperidge Farms remembers ….

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Pretty much exactly the vibe I was going for, haha

[–] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You're right per the technical definition. Just assume they mean [an instance of] this meme.

We're lucky they're only a little bit off.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I mean I don't mean to complain or anything, I'm just wondering if I'm going crazy or if my memory actually serves me well. 😁

[–] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

Nah. You're right.
