I really like that post!
It seems like OP put a lot of work and creativity into the meme, while intelligently criticizing a problem and not just using "Windows bad hurr hurr" as the base.
I wanna see more of those kind!
Agree, tho this is a cartoon, which I guess these days might be a subset of meme, but wasn't always. Anyways, kudos OP.
Thanks! Now, to defend the memeticity of my creation:
A cartoon can be a meme if it contains memetic elements that get reused across several memes by different creators (cf: the rage comics).
This comic contains text. Languages and alphabets are memes. Therefore, it counts as a meme.
Checkmate.
(Also, since "meme" comes from the greek word "mimeme" (to imitate), including an imitation of Dora the Explorer is also memetic; even moreso since it's been done many times)
(Also, given the way it spreads through sharing, copying and modifying, Linux can also be considered a meme. Since the sharing part is mostly through the internet, it fits an even narrower definition of "internet meme", therefore a cartoon about Linux can definitely be considered a meme)
Sure, artist gets to choose... I guess this is an example of cartoon being a subset of meme then, on the internet even :)
Not to be mistaken with lady Integra the Explorer, a once kinda famous movie star that regards herself as beautiful. Is also a zombie now, and (still) blue.
Yeah, where the cartoon series??
Have you taken a look at c/politicalmemes ?If a humorless poorly constructed wall of doomerism text lamenting the flaws of modern capitalist society counts as a meme, just about anything does these days
Thank you!
A fellow potassium enjoyer, I see.
I also enjoy mentioning windows being shitty without needing to cite sources. Sometimes you can just have decades of life experience and others can nod because they know you're right.
On the other hand, I do NOT enjoy weird phrases based on mocking the mentally disabled while also talking shit about people who have loads of valid reasons for hating the output of a hugely shitty corporation.
But yeah, bananas are fine too ;)
