The "survive for 3 days without pooping" post will always be my favorite
A true classic!
Not one specific post, but I did like bean memes going around for a while. It was right around a reddit migration so people were just coming in and having no idea wtf was going on.
Was I not supposed to feed my lemming beans?
When c/Risa was saying what every Star Trek character would do with their shopping cart. https://startrek.website/post/5262691
At the time, I was looking for a way to make movie theater tasting popcorn at home. The microwave ones that claim to taste like it are terrible. I saw this, tried it and it is amazing. I make it for everyone I know and they all agree that it’s the best homemade popcorn they’ve ever had. Ghee is the way to go!
Yay!
The writing style and positive fighting spirit of https://lemmy.world/comment/3597938 is great. Would read a book of this person.
Wow that's beautiful. That should go in !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world
I forgot to save it but someone mentioned how posting memes to social media platforms is counter to the essence of memes and I've thought a lot about it ever since. And I think I agree
I don't get, isn't memes literally translate to spread, would posting aid in that?
The natural flow of ideas isn't from group to group anymore - it's broadcast to the world. With most memes nowadays, it's a rush to copy a template into as many topics as possible and sent to "everyone"
People don't really "find" memes anymore and share them with their friends. It's like "finding" a new TV show on cable. They went from in-jokes to content.
That was my interpretation of the commenter's half thought, anyway
This one.
