    Or jeans, or beef stroganoff, or every other time lemmy immediately runs a new joke into the ground and continues to do so far beyond when the joke is completely dead

      Yeah, memes run into the ground are the best memes. They wrap back around to being funny again.

          Similarly, Rick Rolling is eternal. It’s kind of got a negative feedback loop. If it gets overused, people stop using it for a while, which just makes people more susceptible to it when it pops up again.

          I like Loss specifically because the elders have found out how to use it but they don’t know what it means. It’s just a glyph that deals psychic damage to anyone under 40 and they don’t know why. But instead of misusing it like most other memes they don’t understand, you really can’t misuse Loss. You just stick it somewhere random and watch people scream.

            You’re referencing one specific tweet of a guy talking about his dad, and the fact that I know that makes me want to scream.

            I find it that loss makes me feel the same way a sneaky pun does, once I realise it’s there I groan, but secretly, I love it

      That’s part of the fun. If has to become unfunny before it can evolve into something funny again

          It looked to me that he conjured up some food out of the soil, but forgot to conjure a plate and is now, too hungry to wait.

          What I don’t understand is the peculiar choice of the person that the AI generated. I didn’t add anything other than the exact text in the above comment and the 2 pictures generated, both had a similar looking person, in a farm-like setting.
