Jeans memes are funny, I just hate that 90% of the ones I've seen have been no effort AI slop. I'd so much rather see a shitty ms paint edit than an AI image for so many reasons, not the least of which is that it's just funnier seeing denim texture haphazardly pasted onto stuff than seeing an AI try to do it well

I mean I made a shitty edit of an image of tea inside a jean mug and it didn't do so well.
I liked that one
This right here.
MS paint or gtfo, for real
meme becomes thing.
people like meme.
other people don't like meme.
meme goes away.
Some people look at the community more than others, and so they get bored at repetitive memes very quickly.
Some people look at the community very infrequently, and so see the "new" jeans meme trend, and post their own.
The meme gets downvoted a shitton, but they don't see the downvote because they don't visit often.
As long as the trend is low effort enough to participate in, there are no repercussions from downvotes, and the amount of time different people spend here varies, this will continue happening.That's why i think we should ban GenAI posts.
GenAI posts are dumb and unfunny anyway because people don't put effort into them.
I understand that side of the argument 100%, but really it doesn't last all that long, and it's not like there's all that much content being posted anyway.
This kind of stuff brings the community together, generates a couple laughs for people who often don't laugh all that much and honestly I'd be willing to bet that the people who found it annoying enough to actually be angry at it wouldn't have laughed at much else anyway.
I do feel bad for people who were annoyed by it, and I also understand the argument against AI. I participated in the bean and jean posting but personally I never used AI and very rarely upvoted AI generated content but I don't mind it, sometimes it hits.
I've had a blast playing with gimp and learning more about the workflow and image editing software and I will make no apologies for that >:3
Meme is fleeting
Meme is jeeting
Exactly
Looks like a healthy cycle to me. A good indicator that the community is thriving. Love it!
"Hey these jean memes are getting old. Should I-
A. Make another one.
B. Make a post complaining about them.
C. Make a new unrelated post."
There is one correct answer here, and it's not A or B. Choose wisely.
do A and B, make another jitpost that complains about the amount of jitposts
D. Comment how I'm tired of them on the very post.
The answer is A
Its funny how upset people are about the jean shitposts. Like it hasn't been the trend on this sub to just roll with a theme and beat it like a dead horse till its funny again?
sure it's funny if it's a shitty mspaint drawing of baked beans ~10m of effort
but GenAI images aren't very funny ~10s of effortpeople put no thought into them and they come out bland
Yeah I kinda agree with you on that one. The power of AI to quickly drive a meme into the ground is becoming apparent
Anybody recommend some kinda “MS Paint for iOS”?
I’m just happy we’re over the Taylor Swift plane thing. That was weird. Jeans are great.
the taylor swift thing was funny when it was shittily done with mspaint or whatever though
Jeans plane
Plain jeans
no it's called shitposting not shit posting
I dig the jean posts. My kind of humor.
What's funny is that I browse here at least once a day, and I've seen zero of these jeans memes. Not a one. Dunno wtf you're all on about. Nor am I particularly interested. But this is the third damned meta post I've seen about these—apparently rampant—jeans memes.
What's funny is that you are lying. Just going to the community, there is at lest 5 out of 10 that are jeans posts, and old ones too. Unless you blocked the authors, there is plenty of them to see.
What the hell would my motivation be to lie about that? What a demented take. Ironically, right after posting the comment I did see a post with Patrick Stewart all in denim. First one. I think it's quite likely that I had already blocked many of the authors. One has to curate one's own experience here, and I frequently block people who repeatedly post content I'm not interested in, or just act like assholes. It's great!
Jean posting
Wtf, 🙄 why is there so much shit in my shitpost community. Where can I get some QUALITY content around here???
Bring back stroganoff posting!
